Letters from China and Japan (Classic Reprint)

John Dewey, Professor of Philosophy in Columbia University, and his wife, A lice C. SD ewey, who wrote the letters reproduced in this book, left the United States early in 1919 for a trip to Japan. The trip was eagerly embarked on, as they had desired for many years to see at least something of the Eastern Hemisphere. The journey was to be solely for pleasure, but just before their departure from San Francisco, Pro3 fessor Dewey was invited, by cable, to lecj ture at the Imperial University at Tokyo, and later at a number of other points in the Japanese Empire. They traveled and visited in Japan for some three to four months and in May, after a most happy ex perience, made doubly so, by the unexpected courtesies extended them, they decided to go on to China, at least for a few weeks, before returning to the United States.
