| Summary |
Traditional Japanese folk songs (min'yō) from the countryside are strongly linked to their places of origin and continue to play a role there. This book explores a range of topics such as song life in the traditional village, rural-urban tensions, local min'yō preservation societies and min'yō and tourism. |
