Women and Religion in Japan

0 - Default Title
Description
In this book it was possible to examine only a small part of the various religions in Japan, and so it could not be said that this is still not a sufficient elucidation of Japanese patriarchy. In some chapters the criticism of religion is very strong, others investigate 'femininity' before religion and test the regeneration of women's religion which has been stuck from male history; therefore, the positions on religion are varied. However, these are only differences in focus of interest and as such are illustrative of the diversity of feminism, not essential differences.Okuda Akiko, IntroductionOkano Haruko, A feminist Critique of Japanese ReligionsKono Nobuko, Women and Nation - Reflections on the KojikiNakano Yuko, Women and Buddhism - Blood Impurity and MotherhoodIwata Sumie, Meeting Christian Women in Sixteenth Century JapanOkuda Akiko, The Conflict of Tradition and ModernityIgeta Midori, Women's Role - A Channel for PowerHaga Akira, Women and Soka GakkaiChun Kwangne, Victims of the Emperor FaithOkano Haruko, Afterword - The Future of Feminism and Religion.
