The women of Suye Mura / Robert J. Smith & Ella Lury Wiswell.

Smith, Robert J. (Robert John), 1927-2016 (Author). Wiswell, Ella Lury. (Added Author).

Summary:

Based on Ella Wiswell's extensive field notes from the mid-1930s--when she and her late husband John Embree undertook a joint research project in rural Japan--this volume forms a companion to Embree's now-standard Suye Mura: A Japanese Village. Its focus on the women of the village affords a unique look at their daily lives and a detailed portrait of their world-views and social understandings at a time when the orthodoxies of the contemporary state were not yet completely accepted.
