Synopsis
"Destroy a nation, but its mountains and rivers remain."-- Japanese proverb This is a collection of 200 Japanese proverbs with illustrations and explanations for each saying. Japanese Proverbs: Wit and Wisdom is a delightfully illustrated compilation of traditional Japanese sayings and maxims. Some of the classic Japanese quotes and quotations, like "Fall down seven times, get up eight," capture the dogged perseverance of the Japanese heart. Others, such as "A red lacquer dish needs no decoration" illuminate both a universal truth and Japan's unique, aesthetic traditions. Japanese Proverbs: Wit and Wisdom has proverbs of great cultural significance as well as proverbs on matters of daily life and customs. Pleasing to expert and new-comer alike, the 200 traditional proverbs in this unique collection are presented in Japanese calligraphy form, along with direct English translations. Similar proverbs are given from English, and the sumi-e style ink drawings are a delight in their own right. Amateurs and Japanese language enthusiasts alike will speak Japanese with the verve and nuance of a native when they use these apt and witty expressions., Japanese Proverbs is filled with universal truths ('Fall down seven times, get up eight') as well as uniquely Japanese sayings and folk wisdom ('Even a one-inch insect has a half-inch soul') which may seem cryptic and difficult to understand until you know the entire proverb that it refers to. This book will delight students of Japanese language and culture and will provide you with the key to speaking and understanding Japanese more fluently. All the proverbs are presented in Japanese script and Romanised form, along with direct English translations.

    Was a little disappointed to receive a paperback book when I thought I was purchasing a hardcover. Item description noted it was a stock image but it was the coverart of the hardcover so I made an incorrect assumption. Seller reached out and made things right without any prompting from me, something they definitely didn t have to do. Great service!

    Great seller. Item came in great condition, just as described and shown in the images. It was packed well, with padding and items were wrapped to ensure safety. The seller posted next day, allowing for quick delivery. Price of item was great, espacially for the good condition of the books, for great value. Overall a perfect transaction and I would trust this seller again, would highly recommend.
