| 520 | _a"The Japanese New Year's Festival, Games and Pastimes" by Helen Cowen Gunsaulus is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich tapestry of customs, traditions, and pastimes associated with the Japanese New Year celebration, providing readers an insight into Japanese culture and the importance of this festival in everyday life. Through detailed descriptions and illustrations, it paints a vivid picture of various ceremonies, games, and artistic expressions that mark the occasion. The book intricately weaves together the various aspects of the New Year's festival, starting from the initial preparations and rituals performed leading up to January 1st, including the demon-driving ceremony and house cleaning. It describes the significance of traditional decorations such as the "shimenawa" and seasonal greetings exchanged among family and friends. Alongside the cultural practices, the narrative delves into popular games played during the festivities, covering activities like kite-flying and "go"—a strategic board game. Through these accounts, Gunsaulus not only highlights the joy and communal spirit of the celebration but also underscores its deep-rooted connections to Japanese mythology and philosophy, providing a holistic understanding of this rich cultural event.
