Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan in Art and Industry: With a Glance at Japanese, Manners and Customs In Japan it is all the other way. No one there seems to trouble his head with the destinies of la be'te, and the people are so constituted as to take human miseries as little as possible to heart. Thus in actual life the blind are the subjects of consideration, yet the Japanese pictures - the traffic in which is much brisker and more extensive than the Chinese, be it said in passing - often make merry at their expense. Contrariwise, there is no' example of the caustic Wit of Japan exercising itself in the caricature of the hunchbacked. And for the very simple reason that, although there are many blind, there is no one hump backed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Life of Japan  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Life of Japan Classic Reprint written by Masuji Miyakawa and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Japan Although much that may be called phenomenal has happened since the publication of the first edition in July, 1907, nothing has occurred which seems to the author to require any alteration in the substance of the work, though he has occasionally modified the form and expression and amplified somewhat the views stated in the first edition. Viscount Kaneko has kindly written the introduction to this edition, so the author will say but little. The American loversi of literature on Japan will remember the last and perhaps the greatest work of the American writer, Lafcadio Hearn, "Japan," which created a sensation in its exposition of the so-called confidential letter written by Herbert Spencer to Viscount Kaneko, - a confidential letter aimed at the late Prince Ito. This incident has nothing to do with this work, though prefaced by the receiver of the Spencer letter, according to Lafcadio Hearn. The Viscount's relation to the book is that of a critic and not that of a writer of any portion of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
