Letters From Japan by Mrs. Hugh Fraser Pdf

Excerpt from Letters From Japan: A Record of Modern Life in the Island Empire In the following letters, written during a three years' residence in Tokyo, no method was followed beyond the interests and the fancy of the moment; no detailed description was attempted of Japan, her history and her customs and her philosophies. In the times when every foreigner saw the same sights in the Island Empire, obtained the same stereotyped glimpses of the people's life, and was contented with the half-comprehended information given by his guide, it was easy, and alas! fashionable, to describe the "toy country" and its "fairylike" inhabitants with glib security in large print. Those times are gone for ever. Japan has set the doors of her secret shrines ajar, so that we can at any rate take the first step in wisdom, and realise how little we know.

Kokoro by Lafcadio Hearn Pdf

Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan by Lafcadio Hearn Pdf

Excerpt from Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan: First Series IN the Introduction to his charming Tales of Old Japan, Mr. Mitford wrote in I 8 7 I: The books which have been written of late years about Japan have either been compiled from official records, or have contained the sketchy impressions of passing travellers. Of the inner life of the Japanese the world at large knows but little: their religion, their superstitions, their ways of thought, the hidden springs by which they move, - all these are as yet mysteries. This invisible life referred to by Mr. Mitford is the Unfamiliar Japan of which I have been able to obtain a few glimpses. The reader may, perhaps, be dis appointed by their rarity; for a residence of little more than four years among the people - even by one who tries to adopt their habits and customs scarcely suffices to enable the foreigner to begin to feel at home in this world of strangeness. None can feel more than the author himself how little has been accomplished in this volume, and how much remains to do.

A Maid of Japan (Classic Reprint) by Mrs. Hugh Fraser Pdf

Excerpt from A Maid of Japan She was of the sea, the little white maiden. Sixteen years ago a woman had come down to the shore on such a night as this with her life's ower, a tiny bud then, in her arms. She stood alone on the stainless sands and watched a great ship sail away under the moon; and her heart went with it in the keeping of one who neither knew nor cared. He was a man of a distant land, a lazy, blue - eyed man who Would not forego his pleasure, but preferredto have it authorised - a Philistine to whom some Calvinistic forefather had bequeathed a lively belief in the tortures of the damned. It was the strongest dogma of his creed, and no temptation was yielded to unless he could arrange to cheat the Prince of Darkness of the hold it might otherwise have given him upon a self-indulgent yet timorous soul.
