Originally published in 1892 by the Fine Art Society in London and simultaneously in Yokohama; Shanghai; and Hong Kong; this book shows the context and growing interest in the arts and crafts of this newly discovered burgeoning country with such artistry central to its everyday life. The work looks at every aspect of Japanese art and looks at its relation to Japanese culture and society.

BairFor many years when I taught two or three of the plays in this volume; I used an edition which is now out of print. Unfortunately; many of the translations are done in a kind of pseudo-Shakespearean; which means that the translations are denser than they need to be. The translations in this edition are very readable and effective for classroom use. A nice job translating and editing.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... this series for a college course and Id highly recommend them.
