Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Echoes From Japan Of distant lands in their worst aspects. Your residence Of nine years in Japan gives you a very fair insight into the feeling and thought Of the people, and throughout your papers I distinctly perceive your true sympathy with my own Country. I Observe almost every day in London that, although there is SO much talk about Japan and Japanese art, yet most people, I Should say, even educated people, have only some inadequate, and Often many mistaken ideas Of Japan. This is just what most Japanese feel much dis appointed to find. Therefore, I am very glad to find such descriptions and comments as you have given about Japan in these papers, because they are true and honest. We Japanese have no desire to have our merits exaggerated as a nation very Old in her history, and now trying very hard to effect a complete regeneration to become one Of the respectable modern states. But we are, at the same time, very anxious to dispel those unfairly hostile, and even monstrous, criticisms which frequently appear in books Of travel. If you are going to publish these papers, which I have had the pleasure of reading all through, I sincerely hope that they may find a good many readers and I am very happy to supply you with some statistical facts about my country, taken from the latest returns.

Download or read book Kokoro written by Lafcadio Hearn and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-12-20 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 15 classic essays collected in Kokoro examine the inner spiritual life of Japan. The title itself can be translated as "heart," "spirit" or "inner meaning," and that's exactly what this collection teaches us about Japan. Sometimes touching and always compelling, the writings here tell the stories of the people and social codes that make Japan the unique place it is. "Kimiko" paints the portrait of a beautiful geisha; "By Force of Karma" tells the story of a Buddhist monk; and in "A Conservative," we come to know the thoughts and actions of a Samurai. As an early interpreter of Japan to the West, Lafcadio Hearn was without parallel in his time. His numerous books about that country were read with a fascination that was a tribute to his keen powers of observation and the vividness of his descriptions. Today, even though Japan has changed greatly from what it was when he wrote about it, his writing is still valid, for it captures the essence of the country--an essence that has actually changed a good deal less than outward appearances might suggest. In a word, the Japanese character and the Japanese tradition are still fundamentally the same as Hearn found them to be, and for this reason, his books are still extremely revealing to readers in the West.
