Paperback. Etat : Good. The poetry written by the Japanese imperial court between A.D. 550 and 1350 is one of the great literatures of the world. The present volume, an introduction to that literature, is at once a condensation, a reorganization, and an extension (to A.D. 1500) of Japanese Court Poetry (1961), by the author and Robert H. Brower, the standard treatment of the subject is in English. The book's five central chapters are devoted to the major court poets and their work; other chapters deal with the forms, assumptions, and themes of court poetry. The author's emphasis throughout is on the human and cultural values of this poetic tradition. Over 150 poems are included in both transliteration and translation. Many of the translations are joint efforts with Professor Bower; others are new translations by the author. The approach to the poems is essentially critical, and draws on the findings of recent Japanese scholarship.…

Hardback. Etat : Good. Former Syracuse mayor Stephanie Miner offers a candid insider look at her trailblazing time in elected office, the pressures and pitfalls of city and state politics, and the true potential of local government.Elected the first woman of major city in New York State, Stephanie Miner gives readers an inside look at the complexity of public policy and how the political system favors Goliath-like insiders who amass power by giving easy answers over the David-like reformers who attempt to challenge the status quo. Madam Mayor is the story of what happens when personal values about honesty and integrity confront the hard reality of money and power.More than a political memoir of a pathbreaking career, Miner?s book is also a front-row seat to the inner workings of local elections, mayoral politics, and municipal policymaking. Miner dives deep into the key policy areas that shaped her time as mayor of Syracuse and continue to affect most local politicians across the country: education, police, infrastructure, pensions, and economic development. Among other things, she writes frankly about the ugly injustices pervading the public education system, the pressure to not ask questions about fiscal policy, the challenges of making necessary infrastructure repairs that are not as sexy as splashy building projects, and the political turmoil that came with writing a New York Times op-ed criticizing the governor. Miner shows how difficult it is to navigate such complex matters when there are so many vested interests seeking to sway those in power toward one side or another.Miner?s story sheds light on the myriad tensions between municipal and state politics, the challenges of achieving meaningful change at the local level, and the systemic obstacles to creating political change?as illustrated in her ill-fated bid to challenge the political Goliath: Governor Andrew Cuomo.If Stephanie Miner?s illuminating stories of her time as Madam Mayor reveal anything, it is that, when supported and allowed to be creative, local governments exist to solve problems.…
