Hadland Davis Frederick
Miti e leggende del Giappone. Eroi, guerrieri ed esseri soprannaturali
br. Non diversamente dai cavalieri del nostro medioevo, gli eroi e i guerrieri dei miti e delle leggende giapponesi danno prova del proprio coraggio lottando contro mostri terribili che opprimono i villaggi e le corti di principi e di sovrani. Come Yorimasa, che uccide col suo potente arco una sinistra creatura che affligge l'imperatore al calar delle tenebre; o Raik?, che entra nel palazzo dei temibili oni per uccidere il re di quei mostri e liberare le fanciulle che quegli tiene schiave. Ma gli esseri soprannaturali del folklore nipponico - gli altri protagonisti delle storie contenute in questo volume - per quanto bizzarri e a volte spaventosi possano apparire, non sono sempre malevoli nei confronti degli uomini. I shoj?, per esempio, restituiscono la vita al povero Yurine dandogli da bere il loro sakè sacro, mentre i tengu insegnano a Yoshitsune le tecniche marziali che gli permetteranno di sconfiggere il gigantesco Benkei. Attraverso le suggestive vicende raccontate in questo libro rivive un Giappone magico e cavalleresco che non mancherà di sorprenderci e di affascinarci.

Hadland Davis Frederick
Miti e leggende del Giappone. La volpe e altri animali
br. La volpe è protagonista indiscussa del folclore giapponese. A volte è una creatura maligna che assume le sembianze di un'incantevole fanciulla per stregare gli uomini e distruggerli; altre volte è invece Inari, importante divinità shintoista, spesso generosa e disposta a esaudire le preghiere delle persone. Di fianco alla volpe, però, convive tutta una serie di animali il cui destino si intreccia con quello degli esseri umani: lepri, tassi, gatti, cani e scimmie, a volte dotati di poteri soprannaturali e capaci di influenzare, nel bene o nel male, le sorti di principi e di principesse, di samurai e di contadini. Frederick Hadland Davis trasporta i lettori in un mondo suggestivo e poetico, in cui gli elementi mitologici e fiabeschi si mescolano con la spiritualità shintoista e buddhista. Tra gatti vampiro, magiche teiere che si trasformano in tassi, cani fedeli e coraggiosi, lucciole vendicative e bianche lepri che appaiono sulla superficie della luna, questo nuovo volume della serie Miti e leggende del Giappone è un viaggio affascinante sulle tracce della fauna misteriosa che popola l'immaginario collettivo del Paese del Sol Levante.
