Japanese Letters is a collection of correspondence between two fictional Japanese characters, Tokiwara and Yashiri, and their observations and impressions of Western men and manners in the late 19th century. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including politics, social customs, religion, and technology, and provide a unique perspective on the cultural exchange between Japan and the West during this time period. The letters are written in a conversational style and are full of wit and humor, making them both informative and entertaining. The book was written by Commander Hastings Berkeley, a British naval officer who spent several years in Japan and became fluent in the language and customs of the country. His firsthand experience and knowledge of Japanese culture make this book an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Japan.1891. The Commander has translated and edited the correspondence between Tokiwara and Yashiri with the thought that after having heard and read so much about Japan and its people from Europeans, it may prove interesting to hear what Japanese themselves have to say about Europe and Europeans in relation to this metamorphosis of the laws, customs and political institutions of their country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
