More about the book
The pamphlet explores the evolution of Japanese religion, particularly the modern concepts of loyalty and patriotism, which Chamberlain argues are products of historical ideas reshaped for contemporary society. He emphasizes that these beliefs are not entirely new but rather a transformation of existing cultural elements. As a professor and translator, Chamberlain provides valuable insights into Japanese culture, making this work a significant contribution to understanding the complexities of Japanese identity and spirituality in the late 19th century.
