楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Seasonal Shadows: The Groundhog Day Phenomenon</em> explores how a simple, lighthearted tradition evolved into a powerful cultural ritual that continues to resonate in the modern world. Far from being about weather prediction, Groundhog Day endures because it reflects something deeply human: our need to mark time, manage uncertainty, and share meaning through repetition.</p> <p>This book examines how humor, media, nostalgia, and collective participation transform a small folkloric event into a global cultural moment. Through social psychology, cultural analysis, and symbolic interpretation, <em>Seasonal Shadows</em> reveals why people return to familiar rituals even when they no longer believe in their literal purpose. It explores how shared stories create social cohesion, how irony allows traditions to survive skepticism, and how repetition itself becomes comforting in times of uncertainty.</p> <p>Accessible, reflective, and insightful, this book invites readers to see Groundhog Day-and seasonal rituals like it-not as curiosities, but as mirrors of collective identity. <em>Seasonal Shadows</em> is a study of why societies hold onto familiar moments, how meaning is sustained without belief, and why rituals rooted in play and repetition continue to thrive in an ever-accelerating world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,126円
