Is this neat, carefully constructed version of Japanese life in fact a myth? Inge Daniels goes behind the doors of real Japanese homes to find out how highly private domestic lives are lived in Japan. The book examines every aspect of the home and daily life-from decoration, display, furniture and the tatami mat, to eating, sleeping, gift-giving, recycling and worship. For students and researchers in anthropology and architecture, The Japanese House re-evaluates contemporary Japanese life through an ethnographic lens, examining key topics of consumption, domesticity and the family. Highly illustrated throughout, the book will appeal to all those who are interested in Japanese culture, and in how and why people live the way they do in modern Japan. 400 ភាសាសាស្ត្រ Dwellings Architecture domestic japan Interior decoration Material culture Family social life and customs Anthropology Domestic Architecture BKEN ddc 1191 1191 0 0 ddc 0 0 LANG PTEC PTEC 2026-09-26 0 428 FAR 0228 2026-09-26 12:15:01 2026-09-26 BKEN 0 0 ddc 0 0 LANG PTEC PTEC 2026-09-26 0 428 FAR 0257 2026-09-26 12:15:01 2026-09-26 BKEN
