Emplacing a Pilgrimage: The Oyama Cult and Regional Religion in Early Modern Japan - Harvard East Asian Monographs
Barbara Ambros
The sacred mountain Oyama (literally, “Big Mountain”) has loomed over the religious landscape of early modern Japan. Ambros provides a narrative history of the mountain and its place in contemporary society and popular religion by focusing on the development of the Oyama cult and its religious, political, and socioeconomic contexts.
