Real and Imagined 8211 the Peak of G

"During the Heian period, the sacred mountain Kinpusen came to prominence as a pilgrimage destination for the most powerful men in Japan--the Fujiwara regents and the retired emperors. This book depicts their trek from the capital to the rocky summit, aswell as the imaginative landscape they navigated, and sheds new light on Kinpusen, positioning it within the broader religious and political history of the Heian period"--Provided by the publisher.
