Essays in Idleness: The Tsurezuregusa of Kenkō
ISBN: 9780231112550 / Angielski / Miękka / 1998 / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Despite the turbulent times in which he lived, the Buddhist priest Kenko met the world with a measured eye.

His brief writings, some no more than a few sentences long and ranging in focus from politics and ethics to nature and mythology, mark the...

Emperor of Japan: Meiji and His World, 1852-1912
ISBN: 9780231123402 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 928 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. When Emperor Meiji began his rule, in 1867, Japan was a splintered empire, dominated by the shogun and the daimyos, who ruled over the country's more than 250 decentralized domains and who were, in the main, cut off from the outside world, staunchly antiforeign, and committed to the traditions of the past. Before long, the shogun surrendered to the emperor, a new constitution was adopted, and Japan emerged as a modern, industrialized state. Despite the length of his reign, little has been written about the strangely obscured figure of Meiji himself, the first emperor ever to meet a...

"I sometimes think that if, as the result of an accident, I were to lose my knowledge of Japanese, there would not be much left for me. Japanese, which at first had no connection with my ancestors, my literary tastes, or my awareness of myself as a person, has become the central element of my life." In this eloquent and wholly absorbing memoir, the renowned scholar Donald Keene shares more than half a century of his extraordinary adventures as a student of Japan. Keene begins with an account of his bittersweet childhood in New York; then he describes his initial encounters with Asia and...

The Winter Sun Shines in: A Life of Masaoka Shiki
ISBN: 9780231164887 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Rather than resist the vast social and cultural changes sweeping Japan in the nineteenth century, the poet Masaoka Shiki (1867-1902) instead incorporated new Western influences into his country's native haiku and tanka verse. By reinvigorating these traditional forms, Shiki released them from outdated conventions and made them more responsive to newer trends in artistic expression. Altogether, his reforms made the haiku Japan's most influential modern cultural export. Using extensive readings of Shiki's own writings and accounts of the poet by his contemporaries and family, Donald Keene...

The First Modern Japanese: The Life of Ishikawa Takuboku
ISBN: 9780231179720 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many books in Japanese have been devoted to the poet and critic Ishikawa Takuboku (1886-1912). Although he died at the age of twenty-six and wrote many of his best-known poems in the space of a few years, his name is familiar to every literate Japanese. Takuboku's early death added to the sad romance of the unhappy poet, but there has been no satisfactory biography of his life or career, even in Japanese, and only a small part of his writings have been translated. His mature poetry was based on the work of no predecessor, and he left no disciples. Takuboku stands unique. Takuboku's most...

Yoshimasa and the Silver Pavilion: The Creation of the Soul of Japan
ISBN: 9780231130578 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Yoshimasa may have been the worst shogun ever to rule Japan.
