Kokoro: Hints and Echoes of Japanese Inner Life

(Forgotten Books April 19, 2017)
Excerpt from Kokoro: Hints and Echoes of Japanese Inner Life

The papers composing this volume treat of the inner rather than of the outer life of Japan, for which reason they have been grouped under the title Kokoro (heart). Written with the above character, this word signifies also mind, in the emotional sense; spirit; courage; resolve; sentiment; affec tion; and inner meaning, - just as we say in English, the heart of things.
