Ancient Japan
http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~dee/ANCJAPAN/CONTENTS.HTM
"Ancient Japan is designed as a learning module in the form of a "research textbook." The module provides more information and in more detail than the average freshman level world cultures/history/civilizations textbook. It is meant to be a resource for students to extract overall background but with enough detail so that students can approach sophisticated and creative assignments on the culture or history of ancient Japan. "
Japanese Traditional Music
http://jtrad.columbia.jp/eng/index.html
A pictorial chronology of Japanese music history is provided along with a survey of each era. Musical genres including Gagaku, Kabuki, and Shomyo are described in detail and several example sound files are available.
Web Japan
http://web-japan.org/index.html
"This searchable site provides reliable information on Japan across many different genres including culture, sightseeing, society, history and nature. The content is provided primarily in English."
