Just discovered. Those of you, like the Buzzard, who are interested in all things nihon-go will want to take a look.

Gentle Sir Philip Sidney, thou knew'st what belong'd to a scholler; thou knew'st what pains, what toil, what travail conduct to perfection.
About Me
- Piers
- West Tennessee, United States
- "I am grown at length to see into the vanity of the world more than ever I did, and now I condemn myself for nothing so much as playing the dolt in print . . . . There is nothing that if a man list he may not wrest or pervert. I cannot forbid any to think villainously, Sed caveat emptor, let the interpreter beware; for none ever heard me make allegories of an idle text."

Awesome -- you know, there was some book Hambone got for me that was all about the collapsible dichotomy between Japanese civilization and the function of the bakemono.
I'm adding this link to my own list o' links!
Civilization and Monsters: Spirits of Modernity in Meiji Japan, by Gerald Figal (Duke UP: 1999)
Sounds like an awesome book. Maybe I should order an 'exam copy' for that japanese civ course I'm teaching . . . you know, with all my expertise in that area. . .
