This text relates the experiences of a range of Western writers who went to Japan as teachers and lecturers, covering a period of over 100 years.

It includes some hitherto unpublished correspondence, as well as comments on their published works. The book is aimed at departments of literature (courses in twentieth-century literature); cultural studies; Japanese studies. |
