This review is from: Splendid Monarchy: Power and Pageantry in Modern Japan (Twentieth-Century Japan, 6) (Hardcover)
this book shows how Japanese customs are made up by the successors of Meiji. most people think that the emperor of Japan has been lasted from the start of Japan, which is very wrong. After the success of Meiji, they made all the customs including weddings, images of the emperor, etc. From inventing all these things, they could easily plant into the people's mind that the emperor has been there watching his people from the beginning of the country. The author, Takashi Fujitani provocates that this is the basement of Japanese nationalism.
