Time is going very fast. Treadwells Bookshop is offering another very interesting lecture to attend......
For all of us interested in Japanese culture ( very fascinating in my opinion) and for all of us who are into demons it should be a very interesting talk...19 April 2007 (Thursday)Demon-Hunters of Japan Laura Nakagawa-Millerprice:£57.15 for 7.30pm start bookings: (020) 7240 8906 or via email: info(at)treadwells-london.com Following on from her sell-out talk on Japanese conceptions of demons in the medieval Heian period, Laura will next present a slide lecture on the professional sorcerers whose career centred on counteracting demonic attack for the fearful nobility of the period. Most famous of all was Abe no Seimei, who will be discussed as a real person, and then there will be an exploration of his effect on Japanese literary and pop culture right up to the present day.
