Excerpt from The Spirit of Japanese Poetry He is a pseudonym of the universal Consciousness, A person lonesome from concentration. When the Japanese poetry joined its hand with the stage, we have the N 0 drama, in which the characters sway in music, soft but vivid, as if a web in the air of perfume we Japanese find our own joy and sorrow in it. Oh, what a tragedy and beauty in the N 0 stage I always think that it would be certainly a great thing if the N 0 drama could be properly introduced into the West the result would be no small protest against the Western stage, it would mean a real revelation for those people who are well tired of their own plays with a certain pantomimic spirit underneath.

Excerpt from The Spirit of Japan Doctor E. A. Sturge, the Author, is a gentleman of an unassuming nature, not inclined to the pursuit of fame and profit, and free from ostentation of any sort. He is a man of character and always receives with open arms all the aspiring young people that come to him. Those Japanese students who were fortunate enough to enjoy his tutelage have found in him a really zealous and helping father. To express their appreciation and gratitude for his kindness, these young men some years ago compiled their benefactor's poems, having first obtained the consent of Mrs. Sturge, and dedicated the book to him in commemora tion of the Fifteenth Anniversary of his Mission Work. At the same time, they raised a sum of money, which they offered Dr. And Mrs. Sturge in order to enable the latter to make a pleasure trip to Japan. The offer was gladly accepted, and it was thus Dr. Sturge came to visit Japan. While staying here he frequently honoured me with his visits, and on these occasions we enjoyed congenial conversation together.

Excerpt from The Japanese Spirit WE have had illuminating books upon Japan. Those of Lafcadio Hearn will always be remembered for the poetry he brought in them to bear upon the poetic aspects of the country and the people. Buddhism had a fascination for him, as it had for Mr. Fielding in his remarkable book on the practice of this religion in Burma.1 There is also the work of Captain Brinkley, to which we are largely indebted.

"A wonderful introduction the Japanese tradition of jisei, this volume is crammed with exquisite, spontaneous verse and pithy, often hilarious, descriptions of the eccentric and committed monastics who wrote the poems." --Tricycle: The Buddhist Review Although the consciousness of death is, in most cultures, very much a part of life, this is perhaps nowhere more true than in Japan, where the approach of death has given rise to a centuries-old tradition of writing jisei, or the "death poem." Such a poem is often written in the very last moments of the poet's life. Hundreds of Japanese death poems, many with a commentary describing the circumstances of the poet's death, have been translated into English here, the vast majority of them for the first time. Yoel Hoffmann explores the attitudes and customs surrounding death in historical and present-day Japan and gives examples of how these have been reflected in the nation's literature in general. The development of writing jisei is then examined--from the longing poems of the early nobility and the more "masculine" verses of the samurai to the satirical death poems of later centuries. Zen Buddhist ideas about death are also described as a preface to the collection of Chinese death poems by Zen monks that are also included. Finally, the last section contains three hundred twenty haiku, some of which have never been assembled before, in English translation and romanized in Japanese.
