Book Overview

Jingles From Japan: As Set Forth By The Chinks (1901) is a book written by Mabel Hyde. The book is a collection of humorous and satirical poems that were popular in Japan during the early 1900s. The poems are written in a style that is reminiscent of traditional Japanese poetry, with short lines and a focus on nature and everyday life. However, the content of the poems is often irreverent and subversive, poking fun at social norms and cultural traditions. The title of the book refers to the fact that the poems were often performed by Chinese actors in Japan, who were known as ""chinks"" at the time. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the cultural and political climate of Japan at the turn of the 20th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Japanese literature and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
