ドナルド・キーン著『石川啄木』英語版The First Modern Japanese: The Life of Ishikawa TakubokuAsia Perspectives: History, Society and Culture

By Donald Keene

Takuboku’s early death added to the sad romance of the unhappy poet, but there has been no satisfactory biography of his life or career, even in Japanese, and only a small part of his writings have been translated. This work by world-renowned scholar Donald Keene gives us a clear insight into Takuboku’s life and works.

Takuboku’s most popular poems, especially those with a humorous overlay, are often read and memorized, but his diaries and letters, though less familiar, con-tain rich and vivid glimpses of the poet’s thoughts and experiences. They refl ect the outlook of an unconstrained man who at times behaved in a startling or even shocking manner. Despite his misdemeanors, Takuboku is regarded as a national poet, all but a saint to his admirers, especially in the regions of Japan where he lived. His refusal to conform to the Japan of the time drove him in striking direc-tions and ranked him as the fi rst poet of the new Japan.

Hokusai × Manga: Japanese Pop Culture Since 1680 English edition

Edited by Sabine Schulze, et al.

Hokusai × Manga off ers fascinating insight into the most widely consumed exam-ples of popular culture in the history of Japanese art. Woodblock prints, or ukiyo-e, were a central medium of early mass culture, and they served as a fantastical es-cape from everyday life. As Japan transformed into a modern nation and society, the demand for popular art didn’t disappear, and the forms were merely adapted from one cultural context to another, changing to refl ect the high-energy urban streets of Tokyo, but retaining many of the basic elements. Dozens of lively, colorful images—from shunga sheets to selected excerpts from manga by Jirō Taniguchi, Inio Asano, and more—are interspersed throughout the book, making Hokusai x Manga as fun to read as it is informative.

Photos by Kazumasa Ogawa

Captivated in his youth by the new technology of photography, Kazumasa Oga-wa (–) became one of the most enterprising and important early pho-tographers, technicians, and printers in Japan. Born shortly before the Meiji era (–), or period of “enlightened rule,” and educated in both the United States and Japan, Ogawa produced a range of illustrated books for the Western market. His work focused on traditional architecture, scenic views, and subjects associated with Japanese culture, such as national festivals, military tableaux, ritual customs, costumed geisha, and fl owers. In addition to thirty-eight full-color plates, this small-format, stitch-bound book contains an portrait of Ogawa as publisher of Japan’s fi rst photography magazine, Shashin Shimpo (Photographic journal). An accompanying essay traces Ogawa’s distinguished career and describes the collo-type process used to produce his exquisite fl ower images, collected here again for the fi rst time since the late nineteenth century.

日本ビジネス史事典　第２版Historical Dictionary of Japanese Business 2nd editionHistorical Dictionaries of Professions and Industries

By Stuart D. B. Picken

Japan, although now listed as the world’s third-largest economy after that of the United States and China, has been too readily dismissed in the late th century as a spent force. This is as unfortunate as it is incorrect. While the Peoples’ Republic of China is indeed growing and its markets are expanding, an enormous amount of the impetus for development as well as logistical support is coming from large numbers of Japanese corporations operating in the PRC. Major Japanese enterprises such as Toyota, Sony, and Honda are already in China or are in the process of establishing a presence there. The export of Japanese technology remains an important contribu-tion to China’s development. The benchmark of product quality within Asia and in some areas beyond has been set by Japanese industrial standards.
