Excerpt from The Development of Religion in Japan
Japan Offers a field for study which has peculiar advantages. Its history is comparatively brief, and the successive moments in its development are well marked. By the aid of historical criticism, the primi tive rites and beliefs can be discerned. These were rapidly supplanted or transformed by the introduction of an alien civilisation - a process which can be traced step by step. The imported system, however, did not remain foreign, but was modified at every point by the genius and needs of the people. Especially in structive is the influence of the rise and development of the feudal system. Finally, in our day, new factors of peculiar potency are introduced, with results which can be understood as yet only in part. Nevertheless, through all, there has been a continuity so marked that The Development of Religion in Japan ex presses the fundamental fact more truly than does the title suggested in the beginning The Religions of Japan.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the religious history of Japan, from primitive beliefs to the introduction and evolution of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Shintoism. The author contends that religion is fundamental to human nature and that it manifests naturally and inherently, rather than being an offshoot of fear or abstract ideas. The book discusses the development of religion in Japan, from the animism and nature reverence found in Shinto to the more complex systems of Buddhism and Confucianism that were adopted later. It emphasizes the role of social and political factors in the evolution of religious practices and beliefs, and explores how these have shaped the cultural and spiritual history of Japan.
