Description: Selected, translated from the Japanese, with foreword and notes by Karl Florenz. Illustrated throughout with color woodcuts by Hanko, Kason, Mishima Yunosuke (Shoso) and Arai Shujiro (Yoshimune). Selection from the oldest Japanese poetry collection, Manyoshu. The text and the colored woodcuts often form a unit. Hasegawa is considered the inventor of crepe paper books and was a very busy publisher. In his time he exhibited his products at many exhibitions all over the world and entered into partnerships with local publishers in many countries. In Germany, in addition to a series of fairy tale books, he also published four publications with the famous Japanese scholar Karl Florenz, richly illustrated with Japanese woodcuts, in collaboration with Amelang Verlag.
