Description
| What is the appeal of these five "representative Japanese" that has not faded away even today? This is the immortal book written in English by Kanzo Uchimura, a well-known Christian thinker, for the Western world during the Meiji era (1868-1912). It is one of the three major works on the Japanese people. The book tells the story of how five Japanese people, Takamori Saigo, Takayama Uesugi, Sontoku Ninomiya, Fujiki Nakae, and Nichiren Shonin, accomplished their outstanding work. This is a book that can be enjoyed in Japanese-English bilingual translation. *The English text in this book is a translation of the original text written in English by the author himself, rewritten in easy modern English, with some content omitted for the simplified translation. In the Meiji Era, three wise men introduced Japan in English. Inazo Nitobe's Bushido, Tenshin Okakura's The Book of Tea, and Kanzo Uchimura's Representative Japanese. These three masterpieces were written, coincidentally, around the same time. This was a period when Japan was following the example of the West in achieving modernization and attracting the attention of Western powers.

キリスト教思想家としてその名を知られる内村鑑三が、明治時代に西欧社会へ向けて英語で著した不朽の名著。三大日本人論の一冊。西郷隆盛・上杉鷹山・二宮尊徳・中江藤樹・日蓮上人の5人が、いかにして優れた仕事を成し遂げたのかを語る。日英対訳で楽しめる一冊。
※本書の英文は、著者自身によって英語で書かれた原文を、やさしい現代英語に書き改めたもので、簡訳化に伴い、内容を一部省略しています。
明治時代、三人の賢人が日本を英文で紹介した。新渡戸稲造の「武士道」、岡倉天心の「茶の本」、そして内村鑑三の「代表的日本人」がそれである。この3つの名著は、奇しくも同じ頃に執筆される。その時代は日本が西欧を手本にして近代化を成し遂げ、欧米列強の注目を集めた時代であった。
