Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Japanese names, a realm often shrouded in mystery for those unfamiliar with the language. It aims to demystify the system by which Japanese names are constructed and read, using the Chinese characters traditionally employed in Japanese writing. The author acknowledges the significant challenges faced by both art collectors and language learners when encountering Japanese names written in this way. The Chinese characters used in Japan, unlike their usage in China, can be read in several different ways, a daunting prospect for those who lack the necessary tools to understand these nuances. The book presents a comprehensive and readily accessible guide, offering a unique dictionary that classifies Chinese characters based on their stroke count and structural components. This meticulous system provides readers with a method for swiftly identifying characters and their associated readings. The author also explores the complexities of Japanese pronunciation, explaining the use of kana (phonetic symbols) and delving into the history of Japanese writing. He further analyzes the various types of names, including family names, personal names, and titles, elucidating their construction and meanings. Ultimately, this book serves as a vital resource for anyone seeking to unravel the intricacies of Japanese names and gain a deeper understanding of this fascinating aspect of Japanese culture. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
