Showcasing moments of convergence between the German and Japanese cultures towards common points of interest over the last one hundred fifty years, the chapters in this book cover such topics as culture, diplomacy, geography, history, law, literature, philosophy, politics, and sports. From the creation of two similar modern nation-states, to the aggressive struggle for national supremacy and subsequent total defeat in 1945, the necessity of coping with their earlier militarism and parallel economic miracles in the postwar era, Germans and Japanese look back on a remarkably similar past.

Remembering Kelley

Take a purposeful step away from the safety of your front porch. Today is just another day of trying to navigate your way through the toilsome maze of your workaday world. Or is it? At any rate, here and there are scattered the mystical, magical portals, entryways into otherworldly realms consisting mainly of the offbeat and extraordinary. However, on the way to these amazingly funky worlds, you may want to take a detour onto leaf-strewn paths that will lead you to meditative strolls beside rippling streams then on to the high country grandeur of a sparkling alpine lake. Proceed from there to explore a silent and shadowy wood where a snapping twig at the twilight hour will give you goose bumps. Just don’t get too close to the precipice of no return and beware the inquisitive jaws of hungry night prowlers. Your overactive imagination getting to you? Playful references aside, it’s the vagaries of everyday life that can prove even more of a challenge, but nothing’s perfect, right? Thank goodness for life’s little twists and turns. How dreadfully boring it would be without them! Read on and step into a richly woven tapestry of the magical and mundane . . . the fabric of our worldly lives; set to the sometimes familiar, often times fantastic gyroscope of poetry.

Some Like It Real: Poetry Unleashed

German-speaking Europe is an array of images that have emerged from varied discourses about itself and its neighbors, and “Germany and the Imagined East” revolves around the exchange of views on and in the vast construct called “the East.” The world has been divided conceptually in countless ways, but the works in this volume treat aspects of Germany as both part of and also separate from any perception of an eastern border. From the former German Democratic Republic,“East Germany,” to Österreich—whose name loses its eastern association in the English version, Austria,—the East begins within the very world of the German language. But it is also the expanse off to the right of Germany, within which essays in this collection treat such political and cultural distinctions as former Yugoslavia, Romania and Russia in Eastern Europe, or Turkey and Persia in the Near East, spreading through India to China and Japan in the Far East. With a variety of perspectives on literature, film, philosophy, architecture, music and history, these essays comprise a multidisciplinary collage that invites scholars from all departments to explore the wealth of insights German Studies has to offer on East-West relations.
