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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Japan Our nearest neighbor across the Pacific has been reckoned among the foremost nations of the earth ever since, in the late war with China, she humiliated that vast but inert empire. Japan will have a voice in the future destiny of Asiatic countries, and in that of the islands of the Pacific. Our schoolbooks on geography and general history touch but lightly upon the Japanese Empire, and it is for the purpose of enabling children to obtain a correct idea of the people, and of the impulses leading to the rapid progress of the past quarter of a century, that "The Story of Japan" has been written. It was deemed essential to explain repeatedly the key to the history of Japan and to the reforms of our time, by noticing the overpowering influence of the samurai of old, who were and still are the makers of the nation. With a very few exceptions, the nobles of Japan have been wholly dependent upon their leading samurai, who, in turn, have been influenced by the ablest of their peers.

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Japan In the thirteenth century the houses in Kamakura were thrown down, and from fis sures in the neighbouring hills blue ﬂames issued during the succeeding century; the head of the highest mountain in Japan, Fuji-san disappeared to a depth of 100 feet, so that the mountain lost 100 feet of its height. In the eighteenth century a terrible eruption of Fuji-san took place. The moun tain also changed somewhat its conformation, a new peak being produced, which was named Hoyei - san. Even in this century Japan has suffered severely from convulsions of the earth, landslips, and in consequence, disastrous ﬂoods.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan, Vol. 1: Described and Illustrated by the Japanese There is no one who is better equipped to edit or to write a work of this sort than Captain F. Brinkley, of Tokyo, who has spent forty years of his life in the Orient, a great portion of that time as correspondent of the London great dailies and as editor of the Japan Mail. It gives me the greatest pleasure to recommend him to all serious students of Japanese history. It must be apparent to any one who is paying attention to the present history-making epoch in the Orient that in the future the diplomatic as well as the business connections between Japan and America will be of far greater importance than they have ever been. It is difficult enough for two nations who speak the same language to thoroughly understand each other. It is far more difficult for two nations who speak different lan guages, whose traditions are unlike and whose nearest neighbours are frequently at variance with their respective policies.

The Japanese is a born Yankee; monastic life does not become him. He had needed, however, precisely that strong self control that came from the schooling of Buddhism. He now realized with the ﬂash of instinct that he had finally come into his own. The ozone of the West filled his lungs.

D The third Of the three great movements alluded to, stands on an entirely different plane. It accomplished itself among a non-aryan people, a people who made its first acquaintance with Christianity only three hundred and fifty years ago, and, after a brief experience of the political effects Of the foreign cult, sternly proscribed it within the national bounds. TO this people, most of what is considered to be most distinctive in the common heritage of W'estern Culture was utterly alien. In some cases it was positively repellent, for the base Of the social structure in Japan was by no means identical with that of the West. W'ith us, thanks greatly to the Roman Law, the social unit is the individual; in Japan from time immemorial it has been the family. Hence for our intense individualism the islanders of the Far East could have, and had, but little sympathy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Japan, Its History, Arts, and Literature, Vol. 2 By the beginning of the twelfth century, the military power, as distinguished from that of the Court and the priests, had fallen, in tolerably equal proportions, into the hands of two families, the Taira and the Minamoto.1 Both were de scended from Emperors, and both were divided into a number of clans established in different parts of the Empire. The Taira had their head quarters in Kyoto, and their clans were para mount in the provinces near the capital. The Minamoto's sphere of influence was in the north and east. It was inevitable that these two should come into collision. The events that immedi ately preluded the shock may be briefly dismissed by saying that they sprang out of a dispute about the succession to the Throne. The Taira tri umphed, and their leader, Kiyomori, became the autocrat of the hour. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
