Shindai sutra: Ljubavni i spolni život starog Japana

Shindai sutra: Ljubavni i spolni život starog Japana

Iro Otoko Azuma

For the Japanese, every sexual act is a motive of true and healthy joy and happiness in life, so the folk erotic humor finds its true expression in a humorous and open play on words, but often also in a grotesque caricature.

A handbook on love and sex life in ancient Japan, compiled at the end of the nineteenth century. In addition to presenting an insight into the love-sex life of ancient Japan, the book also provides a review of the new situation, as well as a comparison with the modern Japanese's understanding of the erotic past and present of his people. This work represents a short but serious anthropological, ethnological, erotological, and even semantic study, which is based on long-term research of various manuals and advisors, as well as literary materials. The central theme of this book is studied in relation to Japanese folk customs and beliefs, and literary folk treasures.
