Reviews

Caroline Hirasawa ... [is] to be commended for producing an important and beautiful book. ... many passages enrich our understanding of the general history of Japanese Buddhist art. The discussion in chapter 3 of hell imagery ... offers, I believe, the best succinct account of this topic in English. Elizabeth ten Grotenhuis, Boston University. In: Monumenta Nipponica, Vol. 70, No. 1 (2015), pp. 151-155.
