Japanese-English Dictionary of Japanese Culture

With approximately 1350 entries, from fields such as art, history, religion, martial arts, annual events, manners and customs, food, clothing, housing, geography, literature, education and social affairs, this dictionary offers a handy reference to terminology usual dictionaries hardly cover. Entries are given in romaji, followed by kanji, an explanation and, in most cases, cross references. Most entries are accompanied by kanji renditions of important terms used in the explanation.
