"Yonejiro Noguchi (1875-1947), known in the West as Yone Noguchi, was an influential writer of poetry, fiction, essays, and literary criticism in both English and Japanese. He was the only Japanese author who published original literary works in English, and he gained a strong reputation in Western cultural society before the Second World War. Along with his active writings of literary works, which were collected in the first part of the series, he played a leading role by interpreting Japanese culture and arts to Western society in the early twentieth century. He extensively wrote and lectured in English. In particular, he devoted his English efforts to promote Ukiyo-e and traditional arts of Japan, and published art books with color plates and other illustrations." Noguchi's writing is singularly evocative and moving. For example: "Whenever I see Utamaro's works, which successfully discharge a wonderful feast of art, I cannot help exclaiming: 'What a limpidity of sweet emotion! What an atmosphere of languor almost akin to sorrow there is.'".
