It has been edited with the needs of English-speaking users in mind students teachers business people and casual linguists. What is furigana and why is it so important Furigana refers to the small kana that are printed above or alongside kanji to show the pronunciation of the Chinese character. With furigana superscripts the beginner who is familiar with hiragana and katakana is able to read even the most difficult and obscure kanji at a glance. Other dictionaries either provide little or no guide to kanji readings or romanize some or all of the Japanese words and sentences. In the past romanized dictionaries were of some value to students using textbooks that contained no Japanese script. Now however an increasing number of influential curricula around the world are based on a rationale and methodology that demands the introduction of hiragana and katakana from the earliest stages. Learners and their teachers studying under such curricula will inevitably feel more comfortable with a dictionary such as Kodansha's Furigana English-Japanese Dictionary one that shows the pronunciation of kanji with familiar and authentic kana script." ; AS NEW This listing contains text in Japanese JIS fo nts æ±äº¬ï¼š 講談社インターナショナル ; New York ; London ; Tokyo : Kodansha International, 2001. unknown‎

‎Yoshikawa Mako‎

‎One Hundred and One Ways‎

‎New York: Bantam Books 1999 Advance Reading Copy. "I may have spent most of my life in New Jersey but the blood of a geisha courses through me yet." So writes Mako Yoshikawa in this extraordinary debut novel . the story of a woman who finding herself torn between two men and two cultures turns for answers to an unknown Japanese grandmother once a famous geisha. If Kiki Takehashi's life is dramatically different from the one lived by her reserved Japanese-American mother it is light-years away from that of her grandmother whom she knows only through old family stories. Kiki has recently become engaged to Eric a handsome successful lawyer in New York City. But at the same time she is haunted--quite literally--by the memory of her friend Phillip killed the previous year in a mountaineering accident. As Kiki herself is well aware her incessant mourning for Phillip--her love of a ghost--is endangering her chance at real-life happiness with Eric. Yet her relationship with Eric is also complicated by her fear that he is attracted to her only because of his erotic fascination with Asian women. Kiki has never so much as met her grandmother the woman for whom she is named. Still thoroughly American though she is she feels a secret kinship with the nearly legendary Yukiko whose impoverished family sold her as a young girl to a geisha house. Kiki is swept up by the story of this strong proud passionate woman who against all odds in a time and place far different from her own found the love that has so far eluded the rest of the Takehashi women. For years Kiki has collected questions to ask her grandmother--queries on subjects ranging from love loss and family to the myth of exoticism which hangs over Asian-American women and geishas alike. In the wake of Phillip's return as a ghost Kiki awaits Yukiko's imminent visit to America with a renewed eagerness trusting that this unknown woman will provide answers to the mysteries of her past and guide her on her way into the future.

‎Sicher, Tsugumi war schon ein unmögliches Mädchen ... Ich bin in einem verschlafenen Städtchen aufgewachsen, in dem sich alles um Fischerei und Tourismus dreht. Mittlerweile lebe ich in Tokyo und habe angefangen zu studieren. Hier macht mir das Leben auch großen Spaß. Ich bin Maria Shirakawa. Ich trage den Namen der Heiligen Mutter Gottes. Das soll aber nicht heißen, daß ich ein heiliges Gemüt besäße. Trotzdem, aus irgendeinem Grunde scheinen sich alle meine neuen Freunde hier in Tokyo über meinen Charakter einig zu sein: "Mensch, bist du nachsichtig", sagen sie, oder: "Du hast aber die Ruhe weg!". Ich selbst würde mich ja eher als ungeduldig bezeichnen, als ganz normalen Menschen aus Fleisch und Blut. Und doch gibt es da ein paar Dinge, die mir seltsam vorkommen: In Tokyo regen sich die Leute sofort über alles auf, ob es nun regnet, die Vorlesung ausfällt oder ein Hund pinkelt. Ich bin da sicher anders. Kaum daß mich die Wut gepackt hat, vererbt sie auch schon wieder, wie Meereswasser, das sich vom Strand zurückzieht und im Sand versickert ... Wahrscheinlich, weil ich vom Lande bin, hatte ich mir bisher immer eingeredet, bis mir vor kurzem auf...

‎Librairie Plon, (colection: Feux croisés, âmes et terres étrangères)Paris, dépôt légal 1936, nouveau tirage 1949.‎

‎Un volume in-12°, broché, couverture souple éditeur, 285 pages + une Table des Matières. Ce roman bien connu de ceux qui s’intéressent à la COREE débute par un chapitre intitulé LA VALLEE D’UTOPIE dans lequel le narrateur évoque avec des mots simples et précis les lieux, le milieu social et familial à une époque récente, avant l’occupation japonaise. Car l’essentiel du “roman”, nourri de détails vrais, commence avec l’invasion des Japonais qui, pour conquérir la Mandchourie, ont eu d’abord besoin de conquérir la COREE. Le héros sera témoin de la résistance des Coréens qui revendiquent leur indépendance en 1919 sans succés ; il sera victime de toutes sortes de sévices mais va réussir, à la fin, à s’échapper vers les Etat-UNIS... Exemplaire portant diverses marques de manipulations et d’âge. Mention de 10e mille. Exemplaire solide mais ETAT MOYEN.‎

‎Yourcenar Marguerite:‎

‎Mishima ou la vision du vide.‎

‎Gallimard, collection blanche, 1981. In-8 broché, couverture à rabats imprimée en deux tons.‎

‎Le 24 novembre 1970, Mishima prépare avec un soin minutieux sa mort. Il veut que son suicide obéisse en tous points aux rigueurs du rite exigé depuis des siècles par la tradition de son pays, le milieu dans lequel il a choisi de vivre religieusement, socialement, littérairement, politiquement : il s'ouvre le ventre avant de se faire décapiter par la main d'un ami. Mort à la fois terrible et exemplaire parce qu'elle est en quelque sorte le moyen de rejoindre en profondeur le vide métaphysique dont le romancier-poète japonais subit la fascination depuis sa jeunesse. Marguerite Yourcenar met toute l'acuité de son intelligence au service d'une telle aventure humaine dont elle pressent à la fois la proximité et l'étrangeté. Ainsi, dans un modèle d'étude critique, un grand écrivain d'Occident démonte les mécanismes de la psychologie d'un grand écrivain d'Orient, mettant au jour les ambitions, les triomphes, les faiblesses, les désastres intérieurs et finalement le courage.‎
