Among the Tibetans【電子書籍】[ Isabella L. Bird ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>"There never was anybody," wrote the Spectator, "who had adventures as well as Miss Bird." In Among the Tibetans you can see why, as Isabella Lucy Bird writes of her journey through the Himalayas on horseback and of her four months of living with "the pleasantest of people." She offers evocative and colourful descriptions of Tibetan rituals and culture, along with vivid descriptions of its villages, monasteries, temples and palaces. "Up to Kargil the scenery, though growing more Tibetan with every march, had exhibited at intervals some traces of natural verdure; but beyond, after leaving the Suru, there is not a green thing, and on the next march the road crosses a lofty, sandy plateau, on which the heat was terrible - blazing gravel and a blazing heaven, then fiery cliffs and scorched hillsides, then a deep ravine and the large village of Paskim (dominated by a fort-crowned rock), and some planted and irrigated acres; then a narrow ravine and magnificent scenery flaming with colour, which opens out after some miles on a burning chaos of rocks and sand, mountain-girdled, and on some remarkable dwellings on a steep slope, with religious buildings singularly painted. This is Shergol, the first village of Buddhists, and there I was 'among the Tibetans.'"</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Old Japan's Unbeaten Tracks【電子書籍】[ Isabella L. Bird ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This is not a "Book on Japan," but a narrative of travels in Japan, and an attempt to contribute something to the sum of knowledge of the present condition of the country, and it was not till I had travelled for some months in the interior of the main island and in Yezo that I decided that my materials were novel enough to render the contribution worth making. From Nikko northwards my route was altogether off the beaten track, and had never been traversed in its entirety by any European. I lived among the Japanese, and saw their mode of living, in regions unaffected by European contact. As a lady travelling alone, and the first European lady who had been seen in several districts through which my route lay, my experiences differed more or less widely from those of preceding travellers; and I am able to offer a fuller account of the aborigines of Yezo, obtained by actual acquaintance with them, than has hitherto been given. These are my chief reasons for offering this volume to the public.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Korea and Her Neighbors (Summarized Edition) Enriched edition. A 19th-century journey through Koreaーcultural insights, ethnography, landscapes, and a woman explorer's observations【電子書籍】[ Isabella L. Bird ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>First published in 1898, Korea and Her Neighbors interweaves horseback travelogue with a clear-eyed political anatomy of late Joseon. Bird records clothing and housing, markets and magistracies, and the textures of village and court life while tracing the shocks of the Sino?Japanese War, Queen Min's assassination, and King Gojong's refuge in the Russian legation. In supple Victorian prose, she shifts from topographical detail to frontier geopolitics, weighing Japanese reform, Chinese retreat, and Russian advance against Korean institutions. Isabella L. Birdーlater Bird Bishopーwas a Scottish traveler and the first woman Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. Years in East Asia and disciplined note?taking shaped her method: slow itinerancy, interviews across rank, and careful triangulation. Restless health, humane curiosity, and missionary and consular networks drew her to Korea from 1894 to 1897, supplying unusual access. Readers of diplomatic history, anthropology, and Korean studies will find Korea and Her Neighbors an indispensable primary source. Read with awareness of its Victorian gaze, it rewards with granular description and shrewd, often prescient judgments. For tracing Korea's passage into modernity amid empire, few narratives are as vivid or instructive. Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the author's voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readableーdistilled, never diluted. Enriched Edition extras: Introduction ・ Synopsis ・ Historical Context ・ Brief Analysis ・ 4 Reflection Q&As ・ Editorial Footnotes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
