Download or read book A Hundred Autumn Leaves written by Sagnik Bhattacharya and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Hundred Autumn Leaves is an annotated liberal English translation of the hundred poems of the Ogura Hyakunin Isshu -- a thirteenth century Japanese anthology. It surveys and tracks Japanese history through the eyes of the hundred poets, and presents medieval history from a completely different niche. It interprets and analyzes the poems for the lay English reader and also contains short biographical notes on all the hundred poets. For all who wish to know how Japanese poetry developed, how mythology, history and poetry played a game of hide and seek in the minds of Heian Japanese poets, how the perfect Haiku or a perfect Tanka is created; if you want to get an access into the world of poets and emperors and empresses of Heian Japan, this is not a wrong choice.

Download or read book A Passion for Flowers written by Carolyne Roehm and published by Harper. This book was released on 1997-10-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nothing lights up a room like flowers. Whether it's baby's breath draped on a table at a wedding reception, clusters of daffodils in small pots scattered throughout a living room or a bucket of sunflowers on a picnic table, a strategically placed bouquet has the power to create a mood and make us feel special. Unfortunately, most of us don't know how to display flowers properly, and they often end up clumsily thrown together in a vase. In A Passion for Flowers, Carolyne Roehm teaches readers how to create arrangements that set off a flower's natural beauty. She discusses the overall features of dozens of the most popular flowers and helps readers understand how these elements relate to each other. Though the book is filled with ideas for brightening holidays and special occasions, Roehm stresses that the magic of flowers should be enjoyed year-round. Organized by season to profile the blossoms as they come into their glory, bouquet "recipes" with step-by-step instructions are sprinkled throughout along with special care instructions for more sensitive blooms. Sections detailing containers, conditioning flowers and elements of floral design are included at the end of the book. A Passion for Flowers features 250 breathtaking photographs and is a treasure trove of knowledge and inspiration that will help readers stop and smell the roses every day.
Download or read book Modern Chrysanthemum Culture for the Million written by George Garner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Chrysanthemum Culture for the Million: A Handbook for the Amateur and Cottage Gardener HE enthusiasm inspired by this deservedly popular flower instead of diminishing increases yearly. Amateurs and Cottagers are now taking a keener interest in the cultivation and exhibiting of Chrysanthemums than formerly, and although this little book is written chiefly for those who grow the plants for exhibition, both large and small growers will find the instructions embodied in its pages a help to them, as the only difference between growing for exhibition and for home use is solely that the plants in the latter case are, as a rule, grown more bushy in shape to produce a larger number of smaller blooms. But in many instances large blooms of first-class quality are coveted for conservatory decoration at home, and in all cases, if the right methods be not adopted, such blooms are not forthcoming, notwithstanding all the labour which may have been bestowed upon the plants to bring about that result. We have endeavoured to give in this book what we consider the most important essentials (which wehave found to be absolutely necessary in our own practical experience) in the routine of culture and general management of the plants and flowers, in as few words as possible. The attention of our readers is especially directed to the growing custom of exhibiting groups of Chrysanthemums with and without foliage plants, and also of cut blooms of Chrysanthemums and autumn tinted foliage, for effect. Some of the arrangements which have come under our notice have, indeed, been charming, and the large number of people who gather around and admire them! Testifies to the popularity of such exhibits.

Download or read book One Chrysanthemum written by Joan Itoh Burk and published by Brindle and Glass. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In One Chrysanthemum, it is 1964 and Misako Imai is a young Tokyo housewife with a secret. When she was a child living in her grandfather’s dark, wartime Buddhist temple in the northern prefecture of Niigata, she became aware of a special sensitivity that allowed her to see visions of things that were currently happening—but in another place—or that had happened in the past. Now, after five years of marriage and no children, Misako is living the life of a full-time maid to her husband’s widowed mother, who blames her for not producing a son to carry on the family name. One evening, she has the very clear vision of her husband making love to another woman and realizes that he has taken a mistress. Her marital problems unresolved, Misako is summoned by her grandfather to Niigata when his temple receives the ashes of a young girl’s bones that were found in a nearby garden pond. The old priest remembers his granddaughter playing in that garden as a child and telling him that she saw a girl fall into the pond. At that time there had been no evidence the sighting was anything more than the child’s over-active imagination. But, after meeting a most unusual Zen priest who tells him about something called clairvoyance, he realizes that his own granddaughter may have had such a gift when she was a child. The old priest becomes obsessed with the possible connection between the bones found in the pond and Misako’s childhood vision. Feeling that he can give into a bit of fool-hardiness in his old age, he plans an unorthodox memorial service in the garden where the bones were found and arranges for both the Zen priest and his granddaughter to attend. What he does not realize is that the combination of the two priests’ limited knowledge and his granddaughter’s powerful sensitivity would be a dangerous combination bound to end in disaster.
