    奇闻怪谈:日本民间故事(套装共4册)

    日本本土流传着大量关于鬼灵精怪的传说故事,这些本土民众口耳相传的民间故事,既是日本文化的重要组成部分,也是日本文人学者创作中不可或缺的重要源泉。本系列丛书精选了日本文学大师小泉八云、田中贡太郎、芥川龙之介等文学大家的经典怪谈作品,如人面疮、狐仙报恩、山灵、蛤蟆神社、幽灵瀑布的传说等,几乎囊落了日本本土流传最广、最经典的民间故事。在大师们的笔下,这些故事或伤感,或诙谐,或警示,或讽喻,丰富多彩,形态多变,无不弥漫着强烈的日本传统文学的独特风味以及浓厚的扶桑国乡土汁味,对后世产生了深远且重大的影响,被后来者进行各种形式的改编和再创作,著名作家京极夏彦、梦枕貘、谷崎润一郎等,都深受这些作品的影响。这些民间故事,也是他人了解日本的重要窗口,为他人透视日本传统民俗文化作出了巨大的贡献。
