Excerpt from Out of the East: Reveries and Studies in New Japan The hotel seemed to me a paradise, and the maids thereof celestial beings. This was because I had just fled away from one of the Open Ports, where I had ventured to seek comfort in a European hotel, supplied with all "modern improvements." To find myself at ease once more in a yukata, seated upon cool, soft matting, waited upon by sweet-voiced girls, and surrounded by things of beauty, was therefore like a redemption from all the sorrows of the nineteenth century. Bamboo-shoots and lotus-bulbs were given me for breakfast, and a fan from heaven for a keepsake. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Hearn (1850-1904), known also by the Japanese name Koizumi Yakumo, was an international writer known best for his books about Japan, especially his collections of Japanese legends and ghost stories. Having previously lived and worked in the USA, notably in New Orleans, he moved to Japan in 1890 where he obtained various teaching positions, ultimately fulfilling the role of Lecturer in Literature at Tokyo Imperial University. He married the daughter of a samurai family with whom he had four children. This work subtitled Reveries and Studies in New Japan was first published in 1895.

In The Annotated Out of the East by Lafcadio Hearn, the former bohemian author and now family man has taken up a new teaching position and has left the comforts of the City of Matsue in Shimane Prefecture; a place he found to be far more severe and less good-natured, famous (or perhaps infamous) for its "Kyushu spirit" and its "Kyushu tone." Yet, even in an environment he regarded as dissatisfactory, he was able to find that the reserved young men he taught were capable of wonderful, even beautiful thoughts, which he takes the time to share with us. He also takes time out from his teaching responsibilities at the Higher Middle School to tell us three wonderful Japanese "fairy tales," and to muse on the origins of man and his future evolution, as well as some of the intricacies of Japanese Buddhism and Shinto; the workings of the Japanese family, and the differences between East and West when it comes to unheard of local customs, art, and even femininity and love itself. True to the style of Lafcadio Hearn, there are ghostly stores of unrequited love and revenge worthy of Kabuki plays and an encounter with one of Hearn's students from his Matsue days that takes a tragic turn. He also makes some startling predictions about the rise of Japan and its place in the world - predictions that are relevant even today, and concludes with the heart rending story of a young girl who sought to make up for the perceived sins of a nation in a very personal way. Although not the "new and shiny" impressions he expressed in Glimpses of Unfamiliar Japan, one can feel and appreciate Hearn's love of the nation and its people and share in his concern for his new home. It's some of the best of Lafcadio Hearn.

From the Foundations in Global Studies series, this text offers students a fresh, comprehensive, multidisciplinary entry point to East Asia. After a brief introduction to the study of East Asia, the early chapters of the book survey the essentials of East Asian history; important historical narratives; and the region's languages, religions, and global connections. Students are guided through the material with relevant maps, resource boxes, and text boxes that support and guide further independent exploration of the topics at hand. The second half of the book features interdisciplinary case studies, each of which focuses on a specific country or region and a particular issue. Each chapter gives a flavor for the cultural distinctiveness of the particular country yet also draws attention to global linkages. Readers will come away from this book with an understanding of the larger historical, political, and cultural frameworks that shaped East Asia as we know it today, and of current issues that have relevance in Asia and beyond.
