Synopsis "Japanese Inn: A Reconstruction of the Past (in English)"
""Japanese Inn: A Reconstruction Of The Past"" by Oliver Statler is a historical book that explores the culture and traditions of Japan through the lens of a traditional Japanese inn. The author takes the reader on a journey through the history of Japanese inns, also known as ryokans, from their origins in the Edo period to their modern-day incarnations.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the history and evolution of the ryokan. It covers topics such as the design and layout of the inn, the customs and rituals associated with staying at a ryokan, and the role of the innkeeper in Japanese society. The second part of the book is a travelogue that follows the author's journey through Japan as he visits various ryokans and experiences their unique offerings firsthand.Throughout the book, the author also delves into broader themes such as the concept of hospitality in Japanese culture, the importance of nature and the changing seasons, and the role of the arts in Japanese society. The book is richly illustrated with photographs and drawings that bring the ryokan experience to life.Overall, ""Japanese Inn: A Reconstruction Of The Past"" is a fascinating and immersive exploration of Japanese culture and history.
