From Sovereign to Symbol: An Age of Ritual Determinism in Fourteenth Century Japan
Conlan, Thomas Donald (Associate Professor of History and Asian Studies, Associate Professor of History and Asian Studies, Bowdoin College)
Fourteenth-century Japan witnessed a conflict about the nature of power that was expressed through the rituals and institutions of two rival courts. Ultimately, political authority came to be asserted through the language of esoteric Buddhist rituals, which determined the parameters of political possibility in Japan.
