Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things
ISBN: 9781481196130 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 94 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Most of the following Kwaidan, or Weird Tales, have been taken from old Japanese books, -such as the Yaso-Kidan, Bukkyo-Hyakkwa-Zensho, Kokon-Chomonshu, Tama-Sudare, and Hyaku-Monogatari. Some of the stories may have had a Chinese origin: the very remarkable "Dream of Akinosuke," for example, is certainly from a Chinese source. But the story-teller, in every case, has so recolored and reshaped his borrowing as to naturalize it... One queer tale, "Yuki-Onna," was told me by a farmer of Chofu, Nishitama-gori, in Musashi province, as a legend of his native village. Whether it has ever been...

Der Junge, der Katzen malte
ISBN: 9783946986102 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 2021 / 52 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Der jüngste Sohn einer armen Bauernfamilie war klug, klein und zierlich und so gar nicht geschaffen für die Arbeit auf dem Hof. Seine Eltern geben ihn als Altardiener zum Priester in den Tempel. Er lernt viel, und er malt viel, aber immer nur Katzen und das überall. Das wird dem alten Priester zu viel. Er schickt ihn fort und gibt ihm einen einzigen, prophetischen Rat mit auf den Weg: "Vermeide größe Räume in der Nacht, halte dich an kleine."
Auf sich selbst gestellt, erlebt er ein großes Abenteuer und wird zum Helden. In einem nächtlich beleuchteten, menschenleeren Tempel bemalt der... Der jüngste Sohn einer armen Bauernfamilie war klug, klein und zierlich und so gar nicht geschaffen für die Arbeit auf dem Hof. Seine Eltern geben i...

Chita: A Memory of Last Island
ISBN: 9781565549715 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Sometimes the swamp-forest visibly thins away from these shores into wastes of reedy morass where, even of breathless nights, the quaggy soil trembles to a sound like thunder of breakers on a coast." Images are expertly imbued into the mind by vivid description. In Chita, Lafcadio Hearn paints life on a marshy, eclectic Gulf Coast island in the middle of the nineteenth century. Chita is a young white girl who is orphaned by a shipwreck and then adopted by a Spanish family on the island. Languages, cultures, and people collide and meld into a nebulous, but distinctive, way of life. Written...

Kwaidan Weird Japanese Ghost Stories Stories and Studies of Strange Things Japanese Ghost Stories By Lafcadio Hearn The publication of a new volume of Lafcadio Hearn's exquisite studies of Japan happens, by a delicate irony, to fall in the very month when the world is waiting with tense expectation for news of the latest exploits of Japanese battleships. Whatever the outcome of the present struggle between Russia and Japan, its significance lies in the fact that a nation of the East, equipped with Western weapons and girding itself with Western energy of will, is deliberately measuring...

ISBN: 9781463800987 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Lafcadio Hearn lived an eventful life -- he was born on a Greek island to a British father and a mother of noble Kytheran-Greek lineage; as a small child he was sent home to be raised in Ireland by relatives. As a young man, he went to Ohio, where he found work as a newsman, and eventually wrote morbidly yellow journalism, eventually becoming known for "florid accounts of local murders, developing a reputation as the paper's premier sensational journalist." (Quoth Wikipedia.) He moved to New Orleans, where he wrote of local culture, and his cookbooks are still well-known. He went to the...

Some Chinese Ghosts by Lafcadio Hearn, Fiction, Classics, Fantasy, Fairy Tales, Folk Tales, Legends & Mythology
ISBN: 9781598185805 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. I think that my best apology for the insignificant size of this volume is the very character of the material composing it. In preparing the legends I sought especially for "weird beauty"; and I could not forget this striking observation in Sir Walter Scott's "Essay on Imitations of the Ancient Ballad" "The supernatural, though appealing to certain powerful emotions very widely and deeply sown amongst the human race, is, nevertheless, a "spring which is peculiarly apt to lose its elasticity by being too much pressed upon."" -- Lafcadio Hearn

THERE was a young Samurai of Kyoto who had been reduced to poverty by the ruin of his lord, and found himself obliged to leave his home, and to take service with the Governor of a distant province.
