The Dawn that Never Comes
Author: Michael K. Bourdaghs
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 9780231129800
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
A critical rethinking of theories of national imagination, The Dawn That Never Comes offers the most detailed reading to date in English of one of modern Japan's most influential poets and novelists. This book surveys the ideologies of national imagination at play in early-twentieth-century Japan, specifically in the work of Shimazaki Toson (1872-1943). Bourdaghs analyzes Toson's major works in detail, using them to demonstrate that the field of national imagination requires a complex interweaving of varied--and sometimes even contradictory--figures for imagining the national community.

More Musings is William Russell Hardick's second book, but the content is the same as Musing's of an Old Warrior, though many of the poems are derived from personal experiences, many are from other peoples experiences and his visions of what the future holds and has already begun to occur in this world.
