Book Synopsis The American Geisha by : Judith Morland
Download or read book The American Geisha written by Judith Morland and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-08-05 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Webster's New World Dictionary (page 24, 1990) defines a 'geisha' as a "Japanese girl trained as an entertainer to serve as a hired companion to men." A true American Geisha must be that and much more. She must be taught self-esteem and self-confidence, but most importantly self-acceptance. She must choose her future carefully, to pursue a business, or to have and raise, a family or possibly both. Lastly, she must decide if she wants to go through life by herself or with a chosen companion. If she chooses companionship, she must be trained in the arts of providing for and serving her Chosen Companion. She must be taught, and be willing to give one hundred percent of herself. She must know herself first, then reach out for friendships, and then seek that special relationship with her Chosen Companion. She must be careful and consider all her options along the way. (We don't always get second chances.) A true understanding of human relationships comes from not only the desire, to have one, but a basic learning process as well. Anything worth having is worth working for. Your inner peace and peaceful relationships are the most precious things attained in this world and certainly worth every effort to attain them.

Book Synopsis America's Geisha Ally by : Naoko Shibusawa
Download or read book America's Geisha Ally written by Naoko Shibusawa and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War II, Japan was vilified by America as our hated enemy in the East. Though we distinguished "good Germans" from the Nazis, we condemned all Japanese indiscriminately as fanatics and savages. As the Cold War heated up, however, the U.S. government decided to make Japan its bulwark against communism in Asia. But how was the American public made to accept an alliance with Japan so soon after the "Japs" had been demonized as subhuman, bucktoothed apes with Coke-bottle glasses? In this revelatory work, Naoko Shibusawa charts the remarkable reversal from hated enemy to valuable ally that occurred in the two decades after the war. While General MacArthur's Occupation Forces pursued our nation's strategic goals in Japan, liberal American politicians, journalists, and filmmakers pursued an equally essential, though long-unrecognized, goal: the dissemination of a new and palatable image of the Japanese among the American public. With extensive research, from Occupation memoirs to military records, from court documents to Hollywood films, and from charity initiatives to newspaper and magazine articles, Shibusawa demonstrates how the evil enemy was rendered as a feminized, submissive nation, as an immature youth that needed America's benevolent hand to guide it toward democracy. Interestingly, Shibusawa reveals how this obsession with race, gender, and maturity reflected America's own anxieties about race relations and equity between the sexes in the postwar world. America's Geisha Ally is an exploration of how belligerents reconcile themselves in the wake of war, but also offers insight into how a new superpower adjusts to its role as the world's preeminent force.

Book Synopsis Memoirs of a Geisha by : Arthur Golden
Download or read book Memoirs of a Geisha written by Arthur Golden and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1999-11-09 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A literary sensation and runaway bestseller, this brilliant debut novel tells with seamless authenticity and exquisite lyricism the true confessions of one of Japan's most celebrated geisha. Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read Speaking to us with the wisdom of age and in a voice at once haunting and startlingly immediate, Nitta Sayuri tells the story of her life as a geisha. It begins in a poor fishing village in 1929, when, as a nine-year-old girl with unusual blue-gray eyes, she is taken from her home and sold into slavery to a renowned geisha house. We witness her transformation as she learns the rigorous arts of the geisha: dance and music; wearing kimono, elaborate makeup, and hair; pouring sake to reveal just a touch of inner wrist; competing with a jealous rival for men's solicitude and the money that goes with it. In Memoirs of a Geisha, we enter a world where appearances are paramount; where a girl's virginity is auctioned to the highest bidder; where women are trained to beguile the most powerful men; and where love is scorned as illusion. It is a unique and triumphant work of fiction—at once romantic, erotic, suspenseful—and completely unforgettable.
