Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Japan The author does not lay claim to originality; he has made use of all materials at hand and has given credit where credit is due. He has, however, applied his own interpretations to the historical and other events recorded and has tried to portray their meaning and their bearing, especially upon the evolution of Japan. There is no attempt at absolute uniformity in the transliteration of Japanese words, nor is there so much variety as to confuse. There is not much practical difference between Tokio and Tokyo; Ieyasu and Iyeyasu. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of Japan Europeans and Americans, however, have failed as yet to appreciate the essential worth of Japan's civilisation. Some foreigners, it is true, speak highly of Japanese fine art, praising Japan as a country devoted to art; but the works that they admire are not always essentially character istic of Japan, nor are they representative works of Japanese fine arts. The number of foreigners aware of the existence of an influential literature in Japan is extremely limited.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brown Face and White: A Story of Japan A man's voice, deep and sonorous, called in the exquisite twilight of a Japanese summer evening. And the faint echo which came back from the rocky hill-side bounding the Mission House garden on its eastern side answered, Eileen! Eileen! Over the hill-crest, on the steep sides of which, here and there, beeches, larches, pines, camphor trees, and maples grew, the last rays of the setting sun had streamed in a golden and crimson glory but a very short time before; for dusky twilight follows sunset very rapidly, and the stars in the Japanese sky creep out less stealthily than with us.

In the case of Japan, however, it has been thought not superfluous to add a few data of this kind without a knowledge of which it is impossible to under stand the course of the literary development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Island Empire of the East: Being a Short History of Japan and Missionary, Work Therein With Special Reference, to the Mission of the M. S. C. C This little book is the ripe fruit of knowledge and experience. Through many years of arduous and faithful service the author has earned the right to speak with authority upon the subject of Japan, its people and its missions. The volume he gives us comes from his heart as well as from his mind. Though but a sketch it will be found surprisingly complete, lucid, and interesting. To those who read it with care it should serve as an admirable introduction to a vast and perplexing subject, and as a stimulus to its further pursuit and mastery. To Christians, whose hearts are yearning in any degree towards Missions, it should be big with interest and inspiration. As the book goes out to do its work for Christ and His Church, I send forth with it, in the name of the Missionary Prayer and Study Union, these few words of commendation and blessing.

Book Synopsis Brief History of Japan by : Jonathan Clements
Download or read book Brief History of Japan written by Jonathan Clements and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating history tells the story of the people of Japan, from ancient teenage priest-queens to teeming hordes of salarymen, a nation that once sought to conquer China, yet also shut itself away for two centuries in self-imposed seclusion. First revealed to Westerners in the chronicles of Marco Polo, Japan was a legendary faraway land defended by a fearsome Kamikaze storm and ruled by a divine sovereign. It was the terminus of the Silk Road, the furthest end of the known world, a fertile source of inspiration for European artists, and an enduring symbol of the mysterious East. In recent times, it has become a powerhouse of global industry, a nexus of popular culture, and a harbinger of post-industrial decline. With intelligence and wit, author Jonathan Clements blends documentary and storytelling styles to connect the past, present and future of Japan, and in broad yet detailed strokes reveals a country of paradoxes: a modern nation steeped in ancient traditions; a democracy with an emperor as head of state; a famously safe society built on 108 volcanoes resting on the world's most active earthquake zone; a fast-paced urban and technologically advanced country whose land consists predominantly of mountains and forests. Among the chapters in this Japanese history book are: The Way of the Gods: Prehistoric and Mythical Japan A Game of Thrones: Minamoto vs. Taira Time Warp: 200 Years of Isolation The Stench of Butter: Restoration and Modernization The New Breed: The Japanese Miracle

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arts and Crafts of Old Japan This little book is intended not for the col lector or the connoisseur, but merely for those who require an introduction to a field of art hitherto little explored but which will well repay further study. For fuller information on the subject many sources are available, but a word of caution is necessary. A bibliography of works on Japanese art would be misleading rather than useful, for much of what has been written regarding it is, as criticism, quite valueless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Impressions of Japan The object I have had in view in writing these pages has been not merely to give a description of my journeys through Japan, but to put on record some impressions of the development of the Japanese. The changes which that country has undergone during the last decade have been so rapid and radical, that it would have been impossible within the limits of a single volume to give any adequate idea of their number or nature, for many of the topics touched on would require a volume to themselves. The greatest change of all seemed to have taken place in the country's Art, which twenty years ago was its chief and most distinguishing glory; and I have tried to show the reasons for that deterioration.
