Overview: 1944年,作者受美国政府所托,完成一项旨在认清日本民族的课题,并以之为二战后改造日本国家的指导。此书即该项目成果。在本书中,作者在简单叙述日本近代史的基础上,挖掘日本人矛盾性格的根源,并详细阐释日本人的“恩债”“人情”“义理”“忠孝”等理念,以及其他一些如幼儿抚养等生活习惯。尤为重要的是,作者在本书中提出了“耻感文化”和“罪感文化”这两个在后世引发巨大反响的概念。本书不愧为文化人类学模范。( In 1944, the author was entrusted by the American government to complete a task aimed at recognizing the Japanese nation, and to guide the transformation of Japan after World War II. This book is the result of the project. In this book, on the basis of a brief account of modern Japanese history, the author explores the root of Japanese contradictory character, and explains in detail Japanese concepts such as “debt”, “human feelings”, “justice”, “loyalty and filial piety”, as well as other living habits such as child rearing. Especially, in this book, the author puts forward the concepts of “shame culture” and “guilt culture”, which have aroused great repercussions in later generations. This book is worthy of being a model of cultural anthropology. )

Took a moment to build, but the payoff was spectacular. Beautiful writing, though I craved slightly more depth in the lore. Still, undeniably engaging. A solid 4 stars from me.

A highly sophisticated read. The middle had a deliberate pace, but the climax was phenomenal. I would highly recommend this to discerning readers.

A decent, if standard, experience. It verged on repetitive in the second act. A more concise edit would have served it well. Perhaps more aligned with a different audience's tastes.

It was adequate. It possessed moments of brilliance, but the narrative felt slightly disjointed ultimately. Perhaps more aligned with a different audience's tastes.
