Abstract
THE present year has already brought two new contributions to the rapidly increasing stock of Japanese literature in “Japan, nach Reisen und Studien,” by Prof. Rein of Marburg, and “The Wild Coasts of Nipon,” by Capt. St. John. The two works thus thrown into association by subject and time of publication have however nothing else in common.
Japan, nach Reisen und Studien in Auftrage der k. Preuss. Regierung dargestellt.
Von J. J. Rein, Professor der Geographic in Marburg. Erster Band. Natur und Volk des Mikadoreiches. (Leipzig: Engelmann, 1881.)
Notes and Sketches from the Wild Coasts of Nipon.
By Capt. H. C. St. John (Edinburgh: Douglas, 1880.)
