Dead Letters: Mourning, Materiality, and Buddhist Commemoration in Medieval Japan - Harvard East Asian Monographs
Halle O’Neal
In Dead Letters, Halle O’Neal explores how mourners in medieval Japan, haunted by love and loss, reused the epistles of the dead for copying sacred Buddhist scripture to create “letter sutras.” She pays careful attention to gender, embodiment, and invisibility to analyze these ephemera that offered both an outlet for grief and prayer for salvation.
