		As most Japanese students have already had several years of the study of the English language as is required within the Japanese educational system, a book of this type could help to reenforce the knowledge of English they already have.
		The Hepburn system is commonly used in teaching the Japanese language to English speaking students, and it is mostly regarded as the superior of the two systems for that purpose.
		Japanese students of English must contend with similar problems, as it is just as difficult for Japanese students to learn the techniques of English conversation.

	Total Quality Japanese: Lost in Translation
		To satisfy the expectations of Japanese readers he had to change the English phrase "in the offing" into "tooku, haruka na okiai" (in the distant, far off offing).
		For example, how Japanese viewed their relations with the outside world had come to be reduced over the years into a kind of shorthand for which there could not have been any English equivalents.
		Neither Japanese nor Chinese had a word at that time to represent the concept of "a collection of persons who are strangers but who share certain values." In 1868, when Fukuzawa translated a British textbook on political economy into Japanese, he had to explain the various different meanings of society as he went along.

		In selecting Oe (pronounced OH-ay) to be the second Japanese author to win the prize (Yasunari Kawabata received it in 1968), the Swedish Academy of Letters cited his "imagined world where life and myth condense to form a disconcerting picture of the human predicament today.
		Oe is a sort of Japanese James Joyce: steeped in many languages and literatures, including English, French, Italian and Russian, he has a Japanese prose style so difficult and complex that he is more honored than read in his own country.
		The Japanese world after defeat, with its period of poverty followed by rapid reindustrialization and prosperity, form the backdrop to his work, which stresses the struggles of the individual to find reconciliation and meaning.

		The short story was Kawabata's preferred length, and though it is a cliche to compare the results to haiku poems or the image executed with a single flowing brushstroke, there is no question that he felt most at home in forms where more is implied than stated.
		The pieces fuse Western modernist experimentalism with the indirection of Japanese statement.
		In his magisterial study of Japanese literature, "Dawn to the West," Donald Keene relates that Kawabata not only read the translation of "Ulysses," which Ito Sei and his collaborators introduced to the Japanese public in 1930, but bought a copy of the English text and compared the two.

		Eijoh states that Miura, the Japanese Consul, was the chief instigator of the plot and suggests that Miura should be punished for his criminal acts and dereliction of his duty to uphold the law.
		The Japanese historians have attempted to distort this barbaric crime by hiding the full text of Eijoh's report and claiming that the Queen was already dead when she was sexually molested and burned.

	Century Of Japanese Motorcycles; Author: Ganneau, Dider; Joint Author: Dumas, Francois-Marie; Hardcover
		Japanese motorcylemakers are most widely acknowledged for introducing new paradigms of efficiency and forcing American and European competitors to adapt or perish.
		But the history of Japanese motorcycles predates the Honda CB750 that was introduced in 1969 and is today generally recognized as the most influential motorcycle ever.
		This fabulous color history spans a full century of Japanese motorcycles, featuring the landmark models from Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki that invaded American shores in the 1960s (and are today among the most sought-after collector bikes), as well as long-forgotten motorcycles from names like Hodaka, Bridgestone, Miyata and others.

	Midnight Eye book review: Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film (author: Chris D., publisher: IB Tauris / Palgrave Macmillan)
		This, the official Outlaw Masters of Japanese Film tome, spotlights 14 filmmakers (twelve directors and two actors) who personify the author's image of outlaw artists, each covered here with an essay, a filmography and an interview.
		Each chapter consists of an essay, a filmography and an interview, but little effort is made to place the filmmakers and their work within a proper context, either socio-historical or industry-wise.
		All things considered, Outlaw Masters of Japanese Films offers a handful of good introductory pieces on overlooked directors, fourteen very fine interviews and plenty of pointers to tantalising titles, but it does leave you with a lingering sense of unfulfilled potential.

		She was sent to the camp and there had the chance to view not only the injustices which the Americans were perpetrating, but the different opinions other Japanese-Americans had about the racist actions.
		The main action of Journey to Topaz deals with a Japanese family's attempt to cope with being sent to the interment camps and the many interactions the family members have with other Japanese-Americans who have differing viewpoints about how to understand what is going on.

		I had been gradually absorbing japanese for a few years from such sources as anime, and old samurai films.
		The author makes heavy use of logic flow charts to show how Japanese verbs are conjugated, and how present, negative, past and past-negative tenses are developed.
		This could have been solved if the author had either provided an appendix with all the verb conjugation flow charts, or (better yet,) provided an additional set of charts showing how to conjugate each type of verb into all the possible conjugations.

		Their writing stands in contrast to the tradition and morals of the ultra-nationalistic literature that was critically and state condoned at the time.
		In 1983, under the sponsorship of the Osaka Bungaku Shinkoukai, a literary prize was established in Oda�s name to commemorate the 70th anniversary of his birth with the aim of carrying on the long tradition of Kansai Literature.
		Popular films, television programs, comics, and music all developed from older artistic and literary traditions, and many of their themes and styles of presentation can be traced to traditional art forms.

	Grits Is Groceries.:
		The bilingual edition of The Inscrutable Japanese by Japanese author Kagawa Hiroshi, in a section entitled "Strange Japanese Social Phenomena," discusses the question, "Why do Japanese women act so cute?" The explanation given is an interesting one.
		Japanese relationships in general tend to be codependent, insular, and hierarchical compared with those of Western societies, and those tendencies too may lead to emotional immaturity and a certain degree of role-playing, which were doubtlessly present long before the war.
		Indeed, the stereotype of Japanese women acting cute is so famous, to the point that it is affecting the cultures of its nearby regions such as S. Korea and here in Hong kong.

	phorum - Our World Forum at Asiawind - Nanjing Massacre will continue to haunt the Japanese
		Another Japanese author, Hata Ikuhito, claims that the number was between 38,000 and 42,000.
		That the Japanese believed the figure to be 300,000 at the time of the massacre was a message by Foreign Minister Hirota Koki on January 17, 1938, which the Americans intercepted and deciphered.
		By describing the Nanking massacre as an "incident" in their history textbooks means the present generation of Japanese never know that their fathers and grandfathers perpetrated a crime against humanity under a militarist Japan.

		Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami has done all three: He's a literary superstar whose fans take his work personally.
		At 51, Murakami is Japanese literature's biggest international name since Yukio Mishima, and like the gay icon, proto-samurai, and practitioner of seppuku, he has not been without controversy.
		His 1995 The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle was a sprawling effort to connect the Imperial Japanese Army's violent 1939 incursion into Mongolia (complete with human medical experiments) to a disturbing portrait of present-day Japan as a land of dried-up wells, abandoned houses, men without rices.

		He maintains a profound respect for General MacArthur and members of the Allied forces, and hopes “Japan’s surrender [will] be the end of the last war on this earth” (xiv).
