Monsters, ghosts, fantastic beings, and supernatural phenomena of all sorts haunt the folklore and popular culture of Japan. Broadly labeled yokai, these creatures come in infinite shapes and sizes, from tengu mountain goblins and kappa water spirits to shape-shifting foxes and long-tongued ceiling-lickers. Currently popular in anime, manga, film, and computer games, many yokai originated in local legends, folktales, and regional ghost stories.

Drawing on years of research in Japan, Michael Dylan Foster unpacks the history and cultural context of yokai, tracing their roots, interpreting their meanings, and introducing people who have hunted them through the ages. In this delightful and accessible narrative, readers will explore the roles played by these mysterious beings within Japanese culture and will also learn of their abundance and variety through detailed entries, some with original illustrations, on more than fifty individual creatures. The Book of Yokai provides a lively excursion into Japanese folklore and its ever-expanding influence on global popular culture. It also invites readers to examine how people create, transmit, and collect folklore, and how they make sense of the mysteries in the world around them. By exploring yokai as a concept, we can better understand broader processes of tradition, innovation, storytelling, and individual and communal creativity.

レビュー

"The Book of Yokai is a fascinating and enormously informative study. . . . Foster's narrative is smooth and often humorous. The book is easy to read, and at the same time immensely informative on the complicated and varied ways yokai have existed throughout Japanese history."-- "Western Folklore"

"Foster . . . analyses and catalogues hundreds of yokai and tells many stories . . . enhanced by witty illustrations by Shinonome Kijin . . . A fascinating and charming compendium."-- "Literary Review"

"Foster creates engagingly rich portraits of yokai . . . Kijin's illustrations draw on Japanese artistic traditions to depict each creature's personality and visual quirks, making this field guide a delight for researchers, enthusiasts and the uninitiated alike . . . Seen this way, even the most horrific yokai seems beautiful."-- "Times Literary Supplement"

"An interesting cultural text highly recommended to Japanophiles or aficionados of the otherworldly."-- "Foreword Reviews"

"Michael Dylan Foster draws the reader into a haunting tale of the uncanny from the first page."-- "Journal of Religion in Japan"

"Readers will be fascinated (as well as teased) by the kaleidoscope of creatures, malignant and benign."-- "International Institute for Asian Studies"

"Highly recommend . . . . A fascinating read. "-- "Reference Reviews"

5つ星のうち5.0 Book Organized in two sections with themed chapters

Part one is a history of yokai and it starts with an examination of works that either depict yokai or concern yokai before such a noun existed, he examines picture scrolls, mokkan, setsurra, scarce fragments of writing and the oldest complete texts, Hojiki and Nihonsnoki, in which the dragon called Yamata No Orochi appears.

Part II is the yokai codex in which he attempts to classify yokai and he starts by pointing out that Toriyama Sekein was the first to make a catalog of yokai, a mix of traditonal yokai and those that he made up.

Chapter 5 concerns yokai that are associated with the natural world, especially forests and mountians. Examples are Kodama, Oni, Yamahiko, Tsuchigumo, Tengu, Mukadie, Yamamba, Kijimuno, and Ninmenju.

Chapter 6 concerns yokai that are associated with water and examples of these are Ningyo, Kappa, Kawauso, Hyosuke, and Moryo.

Chapter 7 concerns Yokai of the countryside that are close to human habitations and while there are no repeats from Chapter 5 you are right to wonder if there is some crossover, the author explains that his methods of classification are not perfect as a number of yokai can be encountered in different places. Examples of yokai covered in this chapter are Sunake-Baba, Yuki Onna, Kamaitachi, Kitsune, Tanuki, Mujina, Babu, Raiju, Nue, Kuri-Kire_Uma, and Tuschinoko.

Chapter 8 concerns Yokai that are affiliated with human settlements but the author points out that some of these are also found in the countryside. Some Yokai in this chapter are Tsogashi, Urume, Kamikiri, Bakeneko and Nekomata (supernatural cats that he opted to cover in one entry), Kudna, and the Toibe No Hanako San, the latter is a ghostly girl who haunts toilet.

The final chapter covers domestic Yokai, some examples are Yanabi, Kasa-Bake, Akaname, Makuba-Gaeshi and Baku.

Most of the illustrations are by Shinonome Kijin and are excellent and have a traditional look without looking like copies. There are a few photos, one is of a centipede that inspired a yokai, as some yokai are based upon real critters such as foxes, raccoon dogs, and weasels. There are also a few select examples of traditional art by unknown artists that are reproduced with the permission of museums. All of the pics are in monochrome

This is a scholarly work but it is not a dry read and might appeal to those who have books such as Yokai Attack, and the entries in the second section are often detailed, something that those into yokai, and those into Japanese culture in general, will find a delight to read.

Always had an interest in Yokai and have been looking for a book that neatly organizes and explains them. This is it! This book has great visuals and pictures that outline different Yokai and really go in to who they are and how they came to be. Also provides you with a reason or purpose behind each one. Great book, so glad I found it!

5つ星のうち5.0 Ausführung etwas besser als Pandemonium and Parade
2023年8月25日にドイツでレビュー済み

Wie schon bei "Pandemonium and Parade" angeführt, macht halt der Inhalt dieses Buch unumgänglich für Yokai-Fans, die auch an den geschichtlichen und anderen Inhalten interessiert sind, ohne aber in Japanologie gebildet zu sein oder Japanisch-Kenntnisse zu besitzen.
Die Qualität des Buches selbst (Papier etc . ist etwas besser als bei "Pandemonium an Parade".
Ich würds aber wahrscheinlich auch auf Klopapier geschrieben kaufen, der Preis ist halt im Vergleich zu unseren Taschenbüchern etwas hoch, aber man kanns halt auch nicht in der Trafik um die Ecke kaufen.
