Learning from SHOGUN was distributed by the Japan Society of New York through the good offices of Peter Grilli, and two printings quickly sold out. The authors are pleased to make it available here in PDF format for interested readers and teachers, but please remember that this is copyrighted material and may not be reproduced for more than personal or instructional use. Note that the PDF version is bookmarked for easy access to the separate chapters. We also want to emphasize that Learning from SHOGUN is about Clavell's novel, not about either the TV miniseries or the feature film versions. A postscript to the book does offer my own first impressions of the miniseries, however, of which I was able to see a preview before it appeared on national television.

Introducing a New Magazine About the Ideas Behind American Culture.
When a young New York necktie designer named Thomas Paul Fernez decided to try his hand at home textiles and housewares, he was really onto something. His inspired sense of contrast in both color and proportion began to define a signature Thomas Paul style, reinterpreting classic fine china motifs for modern sensibilities.

Parc d'attraction mythique à la marge de New York, qui a inspiré tous les photographes. Ici un nouveau regard, en quatre mains. L'approche de chacun des deux photographes, et chaque corpus d’image renforce l’autre, et élargit son sens. L'ensemble permet, en montrant très peu, de faire deviner et comprendre beaucoup. On ne voit pas Coney Island. On voit ce qui le constitue ?

New York secretes its fullest range of smells in the summer; disgusting or enticing, delicate or overpowering, they are liberated by the heat. So one sweltering weekend, I set out to navigate the city by nose. As my nostrils led me from Manhattan’s northernmost end to its southern tip, some prosaic scents recurred (cigarette butts; suntan lotion; fried foods); some were singular and sublime (a delicate trail of flowers mingling with Indian curry around 34th Street); while others proved revoltingly unique (the garbage outside a nail salon). Some smells reminded me of other places, and some will forever remind me of New York.
