Takeshi MorisatoReviews""Japanese Literary Theories: An Anthology brings a diverse selection of modern Japanese literary-theoretical texts, including overlooked works rarely explored beyond Japan, to an English-speaking audience. By combining excerpts and informative introductions, this book fills a major void in our understanding of literary theory and thought in modern Japan. Chapters organized around literary concepts such as description and poetic language present to us a sustained reflection and discussion in a non-Western literary tradition and prompt us to rethink key literary concepts critically. I recommend this volume to scholars and graduate students in modern Japanese literature and comparative literature."" --Shion Kono, Sophia University """Japanese Literary Theories: An Anthology brings a diverse selection of modern Japanese literary-theoretical texts, including overlooked works rarely explored beyond Japan, to an English-speaking audience.
