Death And Social Order In Tokugawa Japan

Buddhism was a fact of life and death during the Tokugawa period (1600-1868). The relationship between temples and their affiliated households gave rise to the danka system of funerary patronage. This study follows the development of the danka system. It demonstrates how Buddhist death left its mark upon the world of the Tokugawa Japanese.
