The truly Traditional Japanese wedding ceremony took a long time and involved many steps of complicated rituals, involved high expense to both families, and often finished in a vulgar or unsophisticated manner.

Zur Geschichte der Gleichung "germanisch - deutsch": Sprache und Namen, Geschichte und Institutionen - Zur Geschichte der Gleichung Germanisch-Deutsch : Sprache und Namen, Geschichte und Institutionen

The papers in this volume analyze the complex processes of this equation.
