"Because it has lived life to its fullest, the driedpampas grass still looks so beautiful"Mitsuo AidaThis collection of poems, their stories and pictures, is an account of my travel through Japan's central island, Honshu, with a backpack and at age 70.It is our good fortune that a few times in our lives wonderful experiences do happen. For me, the time I spent travelling in Japan was one of those rare, wonderful experiences. Staying in beautiful homes and having every moment of every day filled with kindness and happiness was a beautiful gift to my memory.I travelled to Japan with the unknowingness of an older stranger and returned with a shawl made of beauty which will remain wrapped around me forever.Some of the poems are accompanied by their translation into Japanese by Aoi Matsushima. These translations are as a thank you to the individuals who made these poems happen.

A new, readable account of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

Den optimisme, der har præget os europæere i årtier, har i 2022 fået et alvorlig tilbageslag. Den ny krig iværksat af Rusland skaber usikkerhed om vores fremtid. Forfatteren af denne bog giver en samlet vurdering af udviklingen i vores verdensdel siden afslutningen af 2. Verdenskrig. Han tager udgangspunkt i konkrete erfaringer og pointerer, at vi betaler en pris for naivitet over for styret i Kreml. Viggo Fischer påpeger, at vi for længst burde have forstået den fare, vi var stillet overfor. Det gælder også i forholdet til det andet store diktatur, det kinesiske. Men udsigten er ikke alene mørk. Står demokratierne sammen, kan vi være forhåbningsfulde. Læserne tages med på en historisk rejse med nye perspektiver. Også til det store østasiatiske demokrati Japan, der er begyndt at finde sin form som en aktiv deltager i de frie landes samarbejde.Kan vi undgå en ny storkrig? Forfatteren er optimist, hvis demokratierne viser styrke og undgår de fejl, som førte til krigen i 1939. Danmark yder et bidrag ved at styrke sit forsvar, blandt andet med de nye avancerede amerikanske fly, som ses herunder.

This book documents Japan's psychological deterioration caused by its defeat in August 1945. Also, Japan¿s traumatic transformation from authoritarianism to democracy is detailed.The study exposes an ideological war between the Soviet Union and the USA within American-occupied Japan, which triggered violent polarization among the Japanese. Under General MacArthur¿s tutorage, the defeated Japanese were expected to become a peace-loving people, but the Cold War derailed Japan¿s progress toward freedom and democracy. The ¿Red Purge,¿ instituted by MacArthur's Headquarters (GHQ) from 1949 to 1950, triggered the devastating side effects on Japan's academic freedom and freedom of speech. Stanford University Professor Dr. Walter C. Eells (1886¿1962) served at the GHQ as an influential education adviser and became the most vocal advocate of the Red Purge. Japanese Marxist historians have constructed the popular postwar narrative of the Red Purge, blaming the GHQ for every failure. The vast archival materials, including the GHQ papers, Eells papers, and Japanese-language documents, revealed that the Red Purge was a serious propaganda battle between the Americans and the Soviets in a war-torn Japan. This propaganda war engendered the violently polarized political climate, in which the conservative Japanese government behaved according to the dictates of US Cold War policy. By revealing feverish tensions within the GHQ regarding communist influences in Japanese universities, this study sheds bright new light on the Red Purge and its lasting impact on Japan's political future.

Japanese culture, way of life, and other aspects of the society draw in a lot of interest from folks all over the world, and this country has become something of a focal point for many connoisseurs of popular culture.

The Japanese mindset, the country's past decisions, current path, and its future are all inseparably intertwined with the country's intricate history. By the time you've acquainted yourself with Japan's past, you will likely find that many dissociated pieces of the puzzle will come together to form a clearer picture of many aspects of Japanese culture.The book follows a seamless flow as it covers each period through discussions of important events, personalities, and the corresponding impacts. Read on and find out more about the intriguing history of Japan.

Is three days with a cat long enough to change your life? Seven families are about to find out. They all have their problems - and they all want to believe that a temporary feline companion can help them find a solution. Or at least provide a few days' relief and distraction. But the Blanket Cats are mysterious creatures with their own unknowable agendas, who delight in confounding expectations. And perhaps what their hosts are looking for isn't what they really need. Three days may not be enough to change your life. But it can be enough to change how you see it.Translated from the Japanese by Jesse Kirkwood
