Out Of The East: Reveries And Studies In New Japan (1895) is a collection of essays and observations on Japanese culture and society by Lafcadio Hearn, an American writer who lived in Japan for over a decade. The book is divided into two parts: Reveries and Studies. In the Reveries section, Hearn reflects on his personal experiences living in Japan and muses on the beauty and mystery of Japanese culture. He explores topics such as Japanese gardens, folklore, and the concept of harmony in Japanese society. In the Studies section, Hearn provides more detailed analysis of various aspects of Japanese culture, such as the tea ceremony, Buddhism, and Japanese art. The book provides a unique perspective on Japan during a time of rapid modernization and Westernization, and offers insights into the cultural differences between Japan and the West. Hearn's writing is poetic and evocative, and his love for Japan shines through in every page. Overall, Out Of The East is a fascinating and insightful read for anyone interested in Japanese culture and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
