Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan and Her People, Vol. 2 of 2 Professor Chamberlain, writing of Ainu folk lore, gave three good reasons for which this strange people is worthy of being studied - "because its domain once extended over the entire Japanese archipelago, because absolutely nothing is known of its origin and affinities, and because it is, so to speak, almost at its last gasp." This last proposition, at least, is evident to any one who goes to the Hokkaido. Years ago, when Miss Bird followed her "Unbeaten Tracks" into the north, there were still plenty of Ainu not far from Hakodate, at Mori, on the south shore of Volcano bay, and elsewhere in southern Yezo; but as the Japanese have come, the Ainu have gone, always northward - where else, indeed, could they go?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of a Captivity in Japan, During the Years 1811, 1812, and 1813, Vol. 2 of 3: With Observations on the Country and the People Proceeding in our hazardous enterprise, we began, at the distance of about five wersts from the shore, to climb the hills, and endeavoured, wherever it was possible, to direct our course towards the north. The stars served to guide us. Whilst we were ascending the first hill I felt a violent pain in my knee, which in a short time swelled prodigiously. When we proceeded along places which were level, I could, with the assistance of a stick, walk without much difficulty; but I experienced severe pain either in ascending or descending, as I was then obliged to tread heavily with the leg which had been hurt. Being thus unable to make an equal use of both feet, I was quickly overcome with fatigue. My companions were, therefore, under the necessity of stopping every half hour, in order that I might recover myself, and ease my knee by resting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan and Her People, Vol. 1 of 2 Every one who goes to Japan writes home at first on thin Japanese paper, unfolding yard after yard of the neat rolls, and measuring now and then, perhaps, to sec how much one really has written. That is in the early days, when all seems half unreal, when one says "fairy like" and "funny" at every other breath. But just because everything is so different, so utterly unlike all we have ever known, that former life itself seems presently to recede, to grow unreal; we cease to wonder, cease to find anything stränge at all. Then the long letters drop to a page or two, and in writing of the simplest experiences of daily life we stop to think half despairingly, "How shall I make them understand?" Out of that effort to be understood, and from the answers to the questions so frequently asked here in America, these rambling pages have grown.

Download or read book Five Gentlemen of Japan written by Frank Gibney and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 1997-05-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A newspaperman, an ex-Navy vice-admiral, a steel worker, a farmer, and the 124th Emperor of Japan himself--these are the fascinating heroes of Gibney's brilliant book about modern Japan. Strongly individual, every one of them, the five yet share the common inheritance of Japan's precocious but unstable past. Through their lives and attitudes, Gibney gives us an invaluable analysis of this new sovereign nation so suddenly thrown into the world's power conflicts. He helps us understand the historical and social forces which make Japan what she is today--the old contracts and loyalties from which each of the Five Gentlemen is struggling to break away from his country. Their courageous efforts to weld a new Japan from the remains of the old society, and to come to terms with the present, are as exciting as it is important.
