Book Description
This volume provides researchers and students of religion with an indispensable reference work on the history, cultural impact, and reshaping of Christianity in Japan. Divided into three parts, Part I focuses on Christianity in Japanese history and includes studies of the Roman Catholic mission in pre-modern Japan, the 'hidden Christian' tradition, Protestant missions in the modern period, Bible translations, and theology in Japan. Part II examines the complex relationship between Christianity and various dimensions of Japanese society, such as literature, politics, social welfare, education for women, and interaction with other religious traditions. Part III focuses on resources for the study of Christianity in Japan and provides a guide to archival collections, research institutes, and bibliographies. Based on both Japanese and Western scholarship, readers will find this volume to be a fascinating and important guide.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Japan Christian Year Book, 1932: Continuing the Japan Mission Year Book, Being the Thirtieth Issue of the Christian Movement in Japan and Formosa Owing to the fact that the Japan Christian Quarterly for April contained an extensive survey of the history, production, and methods of using Christian Literature in Japan, the special section on this subject has been omitted from this number of the Year Book. However, excellent summaries of the work of the Christian Literature Society, the Christian News Agency, and the Bible Societies will be found in part three.

Book Description
This book tells of the struggles of modern Japanese Christians for justice within Japan and in its relations with other peoples. Drawing on many disciplines, it focusses centrally on the pervasive Emperor system and shows how the ruling elite has persistently tried to revive the symbols of the pre-war era when Shinto and the state were fused. It considers the Japanese workforce, especially those who are disadvantaged: women, day labourers and Asian migrant workers; the environment and victims of pollution; resident aliens and Japanese citizens who suffer discrimination; and the search for justice and peace, especially with other Asians. The book shows how in grappling with these issues Japanese Christians are forging their own social theology, which in turn challenges the West to self-criticism and dialogue."

Book Description
It was not until Kawabata Yasunari won the 1968 Nobel Prize for literature that the average Western reader became aware of contemporary Japanese literature. A few translations of writings by Japanese women have appeared lately, yet the West remains largely ignorant of this wide field. In this book Sachiko Schierbeck profiles the 104 female winners of prestigious literary prizes in Japan since the beginning of the century. It contains summaries of their selected works, and a bibliography of works translated into Western languages from 1900 to 1993. These works give insight into the minds and hearts of Japanese women and draw a truer picture of the conditions of Japanese community life than any sociological study would present. Schierbeck's 104 biographies constitute a useful reference work not only to students of literature but to anyone with an interest in women's studies, history or sociology.
