内容記述 | Lafcadio Hearn was born in 1850, on Lefkas island of Greece, by an Irish father and a Greek mother. After the couple quickly split, he was raised by an aunt in Ireland, but later emigrated to the USA, where he started a writing career. In 1890 he travelled to Japan as a correspondent for an American magazine. Charmed by the country, he stayed there for fourteen years until his death, having made a family with a Japanese girl and adopted a Japanese name (Yakumo Koizumi). At the same time he wrote twelve books, in which he portrayed in an idealized way various aspects of Japan, such as folklore, nature, poetry, religion, mores and usages, and strange stories. The books were intended for the American reader, but they were soon translated in other languages, making the author world-famous. Hearn also taught English literature at the Tokyo Imperial University, his published lectures establishing him as an accomplished scholar and critic. Of particular interest are the numerous references to Greece found throughout his writings, which reflect the fondness he felt for his mother throughout his life. (References to Ireland, on the other hand, are extremely rare.) All these elements make Hearn an important link between Greece and Japan. |
