David Weiss is Assistant Professor of Japanese Premodern Literatures and Languages at Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan.
The first in-depth study in the English language of Susanoo. Susanoo and Korea in Japan's Cultural Memory is a welcome addition to the growing literature on Japanese deities and Japan's colonial history, as well as the question of Korea in Japanese intellectual history more generally. --Sujung Kim, Associate Professor of Religious Studies, DePauw University, USA David Weiss has tackled the long overdue task of heaping Amaterasu's 'shady' brother out of the shadows, arguing for his importance not only in Japanese mythology and Shinto, but also for political purposes under Japanese Imperialism. Uncovering the 'Korean link' of Susanoo together with his representations and interpretations not only benefits scholars, but it also supplies under- and postgraduate students with an authoritative introduction to Susanoo and the diverse roles he plays in Japan's cultural memory. --Juljan E. Biontino, Assistant Professor of Japanese and Korean Modern History at Chiba University, Japan
