This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Buddhist Art in Its Relation to Buddhist Ideals, With Special Reference to Buddhism in Japan: Four Lectures Given at the Museum In Sanskrit and Pali, the vowels are pronounced as in Italian or Spanish; s and s are soft, something like sh in English; d and t are pure lingual consonants, not dental as in English; n is also a pure lingual consonant, - not nasal; th and dh are pronounced like the italicized letters in the phrases 'hit hard' and hard hit' respectively. In Chinese, according to Wade's system of transliteration, a is usually long as in 'father'; e short as in 'yet'; e, much like the vowel sound in the German 'schon, ' except before n, when it is like the vowel sound in 'sun'; ilong as in 'machine, ' except before n, when it is short as in 'pin'; 0 not quite so broad as the 'aw' in 'saw'; u like the vowel sound in 'too, ' except before n, when it resembles the vowel sound in 'look'; it like the French 'u' in 'du'; ii, something like the vowel sound in the first syllable of 'surround'; on, something like the vowel sound in 'foe'; ai as in 'aisle'; ei like the vowel sound in 'say'; in other vowel combinations each letter retains its original force; ch is hard as in 'church'; j is soft like the s in vision'; hs approximately like 'sh' in English. The inverted comma in T'ang, Ch'an and other words indicates a gentle aspirate. In Japanese the vowels are sounded as in Italian or Spanish. Each member of a diphthong or other vowel combination retains its original force, and the important distinction between a long and a short vowel results from duration of utterance rather than from any change in sound. The consonants are pronounced approximately as in English. G is hard as in 'give, ' and double consonants should be pronounced really double, as in 'shot - tower' or 'cock-crow.' There is practically no tonic accent, though. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In this carefully crafted volume, Michael Kort describes the wartime circumstances and thinking that form the context for the decision to use these weapons, surveys the major debates related to that decision, and provides a comprehensive collection of key primary source documents that illuminate the behavior of the United States and Japan during the closing days of World War II. Kort opens with a summary of the debate over Hiroshima as it has evolved since 1945. He then provides a historical overview of thye events in question, beginning with the decision and program to build the atomic bomb. Detailing the sequence of events leading to Japan's surrender, he revisits the decisive battles of the Pacific War and the motivations of American and Japanese leaders. Finally, Kort examines ten key issues in the discussion of Hiroshima and guides readers to relevant primary source documents, scholarly books, and articles.

Book Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art  1600   2005

Download or read book Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art 1600 2005 written by Patricia J. Graham and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2007-09-30 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith and Power in Japanese Buddhist Art explores the transformation of Buddhism from the premodern to the contemporary era in Japan and the central role its visual culture has played in this transformation. Although Buddhism is generally regarded as peripheral to modern Japanese society, this book demonstrates otherwise. Its chapters elucidate the thread of change over time in the practice of Buddhism as revealed in temple worship halls and other sites of devotion and in imagery representing the religion’s most popular deities and religious practices. It also introduces the work of modern and contemporary artists who are not generally associated with institutional Buddhism and its canonical visual requirements but whose faith inspires their art. The author makes a persuasive argument that the neglect of these materials by scholars results from erroneous presumptions about the aesthetic superiority of early Japanese Buddhist artifacts and an asserted decline in the institutional power of the religion after the sixteenth century. She demonstrates that recent works constitute a significant contribution to the history of Japanese art and architecture, providing evidence of Buddhism’s compelling presence at all levels of Japanese society and its evolution in response to the needs of new generations of supporters.
