Japan expert Jo Davey complements this with rich context and entertaining insights to help readers understand this fascinating region, covering culture, recipes, architectural highlights, historical episodes and traditional folktales.Japan''s Southwest Islands are a remote but rewarding and geographically diverse area that comprises the Satsunan Islands (formed of the Osumi and Amami islands) and the Ryukyu Islands (consisting of the Okinawa, Kerama, Miyako and Yaeyama islands). The capital city of Naha on Okinawa-honto is a bright and busy hub of history, art, karate and food. Thanks to its many US military bases and post-war occupation by the US, Naha is a fusion of Japanese and American culture.

A new atlas of imaginary islands conjured up by an international gathering of illustrators, including work by Coralie Bickford-Smith, Bill Bragg, Marion Deuchars, Chris Riddell, Maisie Paradise Shearring, Hervé Tullet, Aušra Kiudulaite and more. Islomania is a recognized affliction. But what is it about islands that is so alluring, and why do so many people find these self-contained worlds completely irresistible? Utopia and Atlantis were islands, and islands have captured the imaginations of writers and artists for centuries. Venetian sailors were the first to make collections of them by drawing maps of those they visited in their isolari – literally the ‘island books’. Then in 1719 Daniel Defoe published his tale of a castaway on a desert island, Robinson Crusoe, one of the first great novels in the history of literature and an instant bestseller. Defoe’s tale combined the real and the imagined and transformed them into a compelling creative landscape, establishing a whole literary genre and unleashing the power of an island for storytelling. To celebrate the tercentenary of Robinson Crusoe’s publication, a truly international range of leading illustrators imagine they too have been washed up on their own remote island. In a specially created map they visualize what ... Unknown localization key: "more"

‘A skilful narrative of combat history … exceedingly vivid.’ – The New York TimesAs the siege of Stalingrad was the ultimate scene of carnage at the Eastern Front, the battle of Okinawa proved to be the bloodiest of the Pacific war. Almost the entire Japanese kamikaze effort of the Second World War was directed against the Americans at Okinawa. At the beginning of the battle on 1 April 1945, over 1 million Americans, Japanese and Okinawans were centred on the small Pacific island; by 23 June, when the Japanese commanders committed seppuku, 250,000 civilians and soldiers were dead. More people died during the battle of Okinawa than in the ensuing bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.Okinawa 1945 offers a stunning account of the last major campaign of the Second World War and the largest land–sea–air engagement. Superbly researched and extraordinarily detailed, Okinawa 1945 is told at the level of the participants themselves, soldiers and civilians alike, with the dramatic stories of three individuals running through the entire account.

Japan is arguably today''s most successful industrial economy, combining almost unprecedented affluence with social stability and apparent harmony. Japanese goods and cultural products are consumed all over the world, ranging from animated movies and computer games all the way through to cars, semiconductors, and management techniques. In many ways, Japan is an icon of the modern world, and yet it remains something of an enigma to many, who see it as a confusing montage of the alien and the familiar, the ancient and modern. The aim of this Very Short Introduction is to explode the myths and explore the reality of modern Japan - by taking a concise look at its history, economy, politics, and culture. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

DVD dokumentární film Námořní pěchota ve válce (6. díl) - Iwo Jima a Okinawa. Český dabing. Dolby Digital. Iwo Jima a Okinawa, poslední pacifické válčiště americké námořní pěchoty v tichomořské oblasti za druhé světové války. Tyto ostrovy tvořily poslední překážku mezi spojeneckými vojsky, již pevně usazenými na Filipínách a mezi japonskými „Domácími ostrovy“. Silné japonské posádky na nich umístěné, byly překážkou, která by plánovanou spojeneckou invazi na Japonské ostrovy vážně ohrožovala. Navíc je Spojenci potřebovali získat. Z těchto ostrovů mohli letecky útočit na Japonsko, na těchto ostrovech potřebovali mít námořní základny, ze kterých by lodi vyplouvaly k japonským břehům. Na těchto ostrovech svedly spojenecké jednotky, zejména Američané, mezi nimiž hrály jednotky námořní pěchoty velmi významnou roli, poslední bitvy II. světové války, protože k invazi na Japonské ostrovy nakonec nedošlo v důsledku použití atomových bomb v Hirošimě a Nagasaki. Tím byly ušetřeny životy statisíců amerických a spojeneckých vojáků a pravděpodobně i více jak milionu Japonců, které by si invaze vyžádala. A letouny B-29 s těmito bombami, startovaly právě z letiště na Iwo Jimě. Fotografie vztyčení americké vlajky na hoře Suribači na Iwo Jimě se stala nejslavnější fotografií druhé světové války.

Southern Women, Southern Landscapes: Cultural Reflections on the Garden, 1870–1970 is an exploration of a number of Southern women—writers, artists, and gardeners, both Black and white—who looked to the land for inspiration and identity. Examining figures ranging from Reconstruction through the height of the civil rights era in Florida, Louisiana, North Carolina, Mississippi, and Virginia, Southern Women, Southern Landscapes focuses on a period that marks a profound change in women’s cultural and social roles. Page and Smith explore the women’s various attitudes toward the natural world as they responded to the disruptions of war and the restrictions of race and gender. The book emphasizes the concept of a "storied landscape," recognizing that landscapes are both natural and cultural phenomena that speak to humans who are open to their narratives. The women featured in Southern Women, Southern Landscapes were often concerned with place-making and the specificity of locale, including gardens, larger landscapes, and wild places, but they also believed in a shared responsibility to care for the earth more generally. Communities, partnerships, and friendships in various forms were all crucial to their creativity in the garden or in other endeavors related to the natural world.
