A History of the Supreme Court

Amazon.com Review

Bernard Schwartz's history treats the Court as "both a mirror and a motor--reflecting the development of the society which it serves and helping to move that society in the direction of the dominant jurisprudence of the day." Beginning with the 17th-century writings of Sir Edward Coke, which shaped much of the legal thinking of America's Founding Fathers, Schwartz considers each of the major eras of the Supreme Court's tenure, from its first term in 1790 (held in New York City) to the Rehnquist years. There are also four chapters that deal specifically with watershed cases: Dred Scott v. Sandford, Lochner v. New York, Brown v. Board of Education, and Roe v. Wade. Schwartz marshals a substantial amount of historical information to carry the story forward without getting stuck on minutiae.

Review

"Schwartz's book is not just for legal scholars; here he differentiates between the various Courts by chief justices, fleshing out the personalities, the scholastic backgrounds, and the philosophies of the jurists and giving law students and history buffs alike the lowdown on those who haveshaped U.S. laws into the present....All the important cases, from Brown v. Board of Education to Roe vs. Wade, are explained in simple English. With its plain talk about complicated legal issues and its handy appendix, this book is a gem."--Booklist"Excellent text!"--Charles C. Perkins, Fisher College"This is a first-class history of the Supreme Court by an author who writes well, and it should provide a solid background for students who wish to study the Court rather than just read excerpts from opinions."--Dr. Robert W. Langran, Villanova University"An excellent account of our still least-visible yet no longer least-dangerous branch of the national government. In what is the best one-volume history of the U.S. Supreme Court, Schwartz guides the reader on an impressive, informative journey through the court's work over its two centuriesof existence....Schwartz's latest scholarly contribution to the literature of the Supreme Court is required reading, and not just for lawyers or law professors. Highly recommended."--Library Journal (starred review)"A well-written account [that] takes us from the beginnings of the American judical system down to the present."--The New York Times Book Review"A thorough, balanced, and readable chronological overview of the highest court in the land. He mixes biographical sketches of justices like John Marshall with insightful analyses of major decisions, offering also a close look at four watershed cases, e.g., those regarding desegregation andabortion. Schwartz's account of the modern court, especially that headed by Warren, is lively and savvy, with a moderate-liberal slant."--Publishers Weekly"This compact yet comprehensive volume fills a special niche in writings about the Supreme Court and Constitutional law. Its detailed, yet manageable, information and analysis illuminate the critical role that the Court has played throughout U.S. history as the final arbiter of constitutionalmeaning and, hence, the ultimate guarantor of civil liberties and civil rights."--Nadine Strosser, Professor of Law, New York Law School, and President, American Civil Liberties Union"Lots of writers have exhaustively mined the subject of judicial activism since Holmes's' appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court. Few Scholars have understood the nineteenth-century tradition from which twentieth-century activism emerged. Professor Schwartz has given us in twelve pages the mostinsightful, historically sound, intelligible analysis of the Dred Scott case ever written. Unlike mathematicians, there are no brilliant young writers; brilliant writers are old and experienced writers, and this is the crowning achievement of Professor Schwartz's long and distinguishedcareer."--Richard Neely, Justice of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals, author of How Courts Govern America"Throughout our history, Justices of the Supreme Court have frequently affected our lives and fortunes to a greater extent than presidents and congresspersons. Bernard Schwartz has performed the monumental task of familiarizing us, in a readable manner, with the careers and works of those whoserved on the highest court in the land. The Schwartz Supreme Court history belongs in the library of all who seek to better understand our democratic way of life."--Stanley Mosk, Justice of the Supreme Court of California"[An] elegantly written one-volume history....A lively narrative that springs to life through the introduction of key cases and colorful figures....Highly readable....It is, by far, the best one-volume history we have of the Court."--Kermit Hall, The Ohio State University

It was an eye-opening experience. In my last year of college I took two courses in Constitutional Law (Con Law I & II) and discovered most of what I thought to be true of the Supreme Court was false. The least democratic of the three branches of government was in fact the most likely to protect individual liberty. We weren’t assigned textbooks. We read Supreme Court decisions directly from the casebooks, such as Marbury v. Madison, Dred Scott v. Sandford, Plessy v. Ferguson, Brown v. Board of Education, and Roe v. Wade. We read both majority and minority Court opinions, both of which could be equally persuasive. Indeed, a number of the minority opinions (the Dred Scott decision and Plessy v. Ferguson are two prime examples) would eventually become the majority opinions when these cases were overturned by the Court decades later. Reading the cases was sometimes tedious but always fascinating, especially in how the justices read the Constitution and applied it in their decisions. The Constitution is not a static set of laws but a living document, intended by the framers to be flexible to meet the needs of a changing society.“A History of the Supreme Court” by Bernard Schwartz is about how the Supreme Court has interpreted the Constitution from the time of its inception down to the publication of his book, in 1993. The book reminds me of my two Con Law classes as it covers the same material. The author begins by saying the great theme of our nation’s development is the idea of law as a check upon government power. Indeed, the Constitution is not a prohibition against what the people might do, but a prohibition against what the government might do.The Supreme Court was hardly supreme in the beginning. It wasn’t until John Marshall was appointed Chief Justice in 1801 that the nation’s highest court became the equal of the executive and legislative branches of government. Marshall did it with a judicial slight-of-hand in the case of Marbury v. Madison (1803) by establishing the precedent for judicial review. Marshall ruled against Marbury in declaring the Court had no power to issue the writ of mandamus he was seeking, because the congressional act conferring such power to the Court was in fact unconstitutional. On the surface it appeared to be a victory for President Thomas Jefferson who was set on blocking Marbury’s appointment to the bench of a lower court. In fact it was a victory for the Supreme Court because it confirmed judicial review as the core principle of the constitutional system.During his 35 years on the bench, Marshall’s rulings cemented the power of federal over state governments and the sanctity of private property. “I consider,” Marshall once said, “the interference of the legislature in the management of our private affairs, whether those affairs are committed to a company or remain under the individual direction, as equally dangerous and unwise.” Marshall’s successor, Chief Justice Roger Taney (1835-1864), wrote decisions that furthered Marshall’s view of property rights but with a twist—where the rights of property conflict with those of the community, the rights of the community must take precedent. It was in keeping with the Jacksonians who had appointed him to the bench.Taney was a brilliant Chief Justice whose reputation was shattered by a single decision—Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857). Taney meant well. A southerner, he had freed his slaves prior to his appointment to the Court. The nation was badly divided over the slavery issue. Violent conflicts between abolitionists and advocates of slavery were common in the western territories. The Kansas-Nebraska act of 1854 had done nothing to resolve the issue. With the Dred Scott decision, Taney hoped a ruling by the nation’s high court would settle the issue once and for all. Taney’s majority opinion held that slaves were not citizens and had “no rights which the white man was bound to respect; and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit.” It was not just mean-spirited but politically motivated. And it failed to do what Taney had hoped for. As Schwartz says, seldom has wishful thinking been so spectacularly wrong. Within four years of the Court’s ruling, the nation was embroiled in a bloody Civil War.After the Civil War and until the New Deal era, rulings from the Supreme Court upheld the status quo, favored American’s burgeoning corporations, and ignored individual rights. One of the most damning decisions was Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) in which the court validated the South’s Jim Crow laws in confirming “separate but equal” schools as Constitutional. Another decision, Lochner v. New York (1905), typified the era in upholding an employer’s rights to work employees for as many hours as deemed necessary. Writing brilliant dissenting opinions, four justices emerged during the Court’s laissez-faire era: Stephen J. Field (1863-1897), John Marshall Harlan (1877-1911), Oliver Wendell Holmes (1902-1932), and Louis D. Brandeis (1916-1939). After Word War II, their dissenting opinions would become the Court’s majority opinion in a number of now-famous cases buttressing individual freedom.The Court’s decision in Brown v. Board Education (1954) reversed decades of blatant discrimination in ruling “separate but equal” was inherently unequal, thus spelling an end to Jim Crow in the South. Among other ground-breaking decisions were three involving criminal procedure. In Mapp v. Ohio (1961), the court adopted the exclusionary rule, which bars the admission of illegally seized evidence, in state criminal cases. In Gideon v. Wainwright (1963), the court ruled that if a defendant cannot afford counsel, one would be appointed for him. In Miranda v. Arizona (1966), the court ruled that a person under arrest has the right to remain silent, that anything he says may be used against him, and that he can have a lawyer present. The latter has become known as the Miranda Rule. These were among the decisions of the Warren Court, a decidedly activist court led by Supreme Court justice Earl Warren (1953-1969) and two “radicals,” justice Hugo Black (1937-1971) and justice William O. Douglas (1939-1975). Some felt the Warren Court had overstepped its Constitutional bounds with decisions that bordered on legislating laws rather than adjudicating law. Perhaps. But their decisions were in keeping with protecting the rights of the individual against government encroachment, which is decidedly the business of the Court. When the Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution, their goal was to create a government that protected the rights of the minority against majority rule. At its best, that is what the Supreme Court has done.Returning to what I stated earlier, that much of what I had heard about the Supreme Court—from politicians mostly—I found to be mostly wrong. The thinking among them was that radicals had overtaken the Court and needed to be replaced with “strict constructionists.” In reading the actual opinions of these "radicals," I discovered this not to be the case at all. The so-called radicals based their carefully worded opinions on the absolute letter of the law. For example, “Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech.” According to Justices Black and Douglas, the First Amendment right of free speech means exactly that—no speech may ever be restricted by government action, even speech that is libelous, obscene, or subversive. As my college professor used to say, court “radicals” Black and Douglas were in fact “strict constructionists.” The fact is, the three branches of government—the executive, the legislative and the judicial—merely reflect the thinking of most Americans. We live in a democracy. Public opinion changes. The court’s ruling in the June 2015 decision to make same-sex marriage the rule of the land would not have been made ten years ago. Since that time public opinion had changed, and the court followed.I recommend Schwartz’s book highly. It reads well. It tells something about each of the court’s most important decisions—both right and wrong decisions—and something about each of the most influential justices. The book serves as a nice introduction to the Supreme Court--much like my two college courses back in the day. Five stars.

"A History of the Supreme Court" is a nicely written institutional history of, well, of the Supreme Court. However, it's not really a history of the U.S. constitution or its role in our national development, and it gives legal doctrine short shrift in favor of capsule biographies of Justices and standard summaries of leading cases. The author includes a running commentary on the tension between judicial self-restraint and the need to adapt the Constitution to changing social circumstances, but his remarks just scratch the surface of Constitutional jurisprudence. I enjoyed the book -- it's almost a page turner if you like this sort of thing -- but it wasn't quite what I was looking for.

Bernard Schwartz's "A History of the Supreme Court" is a readable if dry narrative of the 200 years of the Supreme Court between John Jay and William Rhenquist. The story of the supreme court is a complicated one, and for the most part, Schwartz tells it well. If his book is short on analysis and long on description, it is probably more due to the nature of the subject then to the qualities of the author.Schwartz focuses on two main themes in the narrative. The first one, addressed in the Prologue and in the first few chapters, deal with the practice of Judicial Review in Anglo-Saxon common law, and especially in the early US, where under Chief Justice Marshall, the supreme court has been established as SUPREME - that is, in position to pass judgment on State legislators, State courts, and even the US Congress.The theme is very prominent in the early history of the Court, where the Supreme Court fulfilled its Hamiltonian role as the final authority on the constitutionality of law. Very early, US Justices have proved that they were every bit the politicians as the Jurists - Chief Marshall successfully established Judicial Review in his Marbury vs. Madison decision, while Roger B Taney catastrophically endangered it in his attempt to end the political crisis of the Union via his Dred Scott Decision.Later in the book, Schwartz still devotes time to the question of Judicial Review, but then in a new disguise - that of Judicial restraint, which Schwartz first sees in the actions of Roger B Taney, but which were only manifested plainly in the dissents of Oliver Wendell Holmes, most famously in the Lochner vs. New York case (1905), where the majority judges, led by Rufus W. Peckham, substituted its judgement to that of the legislative branch, and ruled a law restricting working hours unconstitutional (See Lochner v. New York: Economic Regulation on Trial). Under Judicial Restraint, the Supreme Court was only to overrule laws which no reasonable person could say were constitutional.The other major theme in Schwartz's narrative is the switch from the primacy of property rights in the 19th century, to the supremacy of personal rights in the 20th. As the US came to allow much more government intervention in the economy, Schwartz argues, the rights of the private citizen, and especially the rights guaranteed in the bill of rights and the right of privacy had to be privileged. This tendency reached its climax in the Warren court, and particularly in the Brown vs. Board of Education decision. Surprisingly, though, the subsequent Burger court did not overthrow the trend. Rather, important personal rights rulings (such as Miranda) were affirmed, and even the right to abortion was guaranteed, as a right included within the right of privacy. The Rhenquist Court, though even more conservative then the Berger Court, has yet to turn the tables on Warren's revolution; indeed, the recent judgement against anti-Homosexual laws in Texas is another landmark civil rights decision.Schwartz's book is interesting and thorough, but is not without flaws. The writing is somewhat crude, and Schwartz quotes other historians much too much. Schwartz has also an irritating tendency to use the same quote several times, and one quote from judge Frankfurter appears four times at least. The book also has the annoying tendency to assume all the readers are Americans.Worse, sometimes Schwartz's scholarship is lacking. In the case of Dred Scott vs. Sandford, for example, Schwartz's makes no reference to the classic study by Don E. Fehernbacher (The Dred Scott Case: Its Significance in American Law and Politics), either in the text or in the bibliography. As a consequence, several of Schwartz's conclusion are somewhat distorted, and sometimes his views come out of the blue entirely. Thus Schwartz calls Stephen Douglas "the chief political victim of the Dred Scott Decision" [p.124] which is inaccurate and highly misleading. In the short run, Douglas's popularity in the South did not diminish after the Dred Scot decision, and when it did, it was due to his opposition to the Lecompton constitution - not to Dred Scott. In any event, Schwartz completely ignores the sectional split within the Democratic Party, a split that was indeed seemingly worsened by the Dred Scott decision, which abandoned ambiguity in favour of an endorsement of the Southern view.Ultimately, Schwartz's book is both instructive and readable. If it is does not quite warrant a general endorsement, it is a good primer for those interested in American legal history.

I am a reasonably knowledgeable person in history and I found this book fascinating in its depth. While an easy read and not that long, the detail of how George Washington along with his army barely escaped numerous times was enthralling. I cannot recommend this book enough.

I am a history buff and often have to dig through wordy and complex descriptions of times and events written by well meaning historians. Bill and his co-author cut through that jargon and give an entertaining fresh description of the times and the events. You truly get to appreciate the human side of individuals that play critical part in founding of our nation. They bring to life all of their flaws and strengths. You get areal sense of who they were. It is great story telling that everyone can enjoy. The best part - it is our history.

This book brought to life the struggles of the first Americans, especially the signers of the Declaration of Independence and those who fought in the Revolutionary War. The Founding Fathers were not ordinary people. They were philosophers and truly understood the basic nature of human beings. All of their insights and knowledge contributed to the founding documents of the USA. We owe them a tremendous debt.The concept that the rights of man come from God and not goverment was completely novel at the time and is fundamental to the Declaration of Independence. All this became very "self-evident" from reading Killing England. Unfortunately, this is not understood by many Americans today, who trust in the goverment believing that goverment provides and protects these rights. The Founders witnessed King George III's punitive actions on the colonies first hand. These are explained clearly in Killing England and the reader can see the basis of the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the US Constitution.I also came to understand the events the Revolutionary War and appreciate the incredible sacrifices made by the soldiers. I thought I knew a lot about the Founders but did not know that Benjamin Franklin broke ties to his loyalist son William or fully appreciated Thomas Jefferson's personal problems with a very sick wife. I learned a great deal about the contributions of people like Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox, John Paul Jones, LaFayette, and Baron von Steuben. Benedict Arnold's treason is described in detail sufficient to understand that it was horrific.So basically, Killing England gave me a greater appreciation of the events of the founding of the United States of America and the men who gave their lives and fortunes so that we can live in this most wonderful country. Killing England is an easy read and I particularly liked the maps that show the movements of the armies and navies during major battles. The events come to life.

This book is a MUST in every American home, especially in this day and age of revisionist history. Made the characters come alive... Made them "real" and not just famous old guys in a painting. Truly, truly a must. Read it to your children, for the sake of our Nation.

Riveting, just as I expected. Could not put it down. Really enjoyed all of the details about what life was really like at the time and what was happening in their personal lives. Rounds out the picture very vividly. I felt I was right there with them. Very well done!

Full of history not in ur average history books or school books.This is a mandatory read for any and all individuals interested in American History.It may be his best book yet.

Standard from O'Reilly and Dugard..........in a word, excellent. Another thoughtful and entertaining edition in the 'killing' series. A smooth read, lots of action and human interest all tied together with a great history lesson. The entire Benedict Arnold affair is especially well done. Oddly, the authors resurrect the man's legacy to some extent with a balanced treatment of his actions during the entire war. He was a brave, effective battlefield commander during a key moment of the war when victory at Saratoga was crucial to instigating France's eventual entry and final American victory. The battle of Yorktown is also well covered, including the French army's (and navy's) contribution to final victory. It was French infantry that bravely captured an important redoubt in close coordination with Hamilton's simultaneous success with another redoubt British position. It was these actions that lead directly to Cornwallis's surrender and the close of the war. My only regret regarding content is the absence of regard for Nathan Hale beyond a singular passing reference. But, the authors' skill with footnotes (during the read) and the postscripts (after the read) are excellent. The closeout biographical references for the numerous personalities are worth reading and allow the reader to appreciate the war's immediate aftermath on a very human level. This book should be in America's public school curriculum.

"A deeply heartfelt guide to spiritual fulfillment through Buddhism, Luminous Emptiness provides interested seekers with a journey through the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and Fremantle is an expert guide."—Los Angeles Times "A scholar in Sanskrit and Tibetan, Fremantle is more than qualified to write this guide; she collaborated with renowned meditation master and scholar Chögyam Trungpa on a well-received translation of the Tibetan Book of the Dead in 1975. Nothing less than a careful explanation of the world and the ideas that surround that text, this new work is an excellent and plainly written manual to the complex mythologies, symbols, philosophies, and doctrines of Tibetan Buddhism. The West could hardly ask for a better primer. Highly recommended."—Library Journal "In Luminous Emptiness, Francesca Fremantle provides a commentary on the Tibetan Book of the Dead that integrates its teachings with both the central topics of the Buddhist canon and with the ongoing experiences of our lives. Her illuminating exposition of the inner meanings and relevance of the text's tantric symbolism reflects many years of study, contemplation and practice. Luminous Emptiness is valuable in making the root text more meaningful and suggestive. It succeeds in enlivening our appreciation of the immense possibilities which we are offered now, moment to moment."—Shambhala Sun "This is the most lucid and comprehensive exposition of the Tibetan Book of the Dead to appear in English. It illuminates the esoteric path and reveals the way to heal life's miseries—the projection of our minds."—Tulku Thondup, author of the Healing Power of Mind and Boundless Healing

From the Inside Flap

The "Tibetan Book of the Dead, a best-seller for three decades, is one of the most widely read texts of Tibetan Buddhism. Over the years, it has been studied and cherished by Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike. "Luminous Emptiness is a detailed guide to this classic work, elucidating its mysterious concepts, terms, and imagery. Fremantle relates the symbolic world of the "Tibetan Book of the Dead to the experiences of everyday life, presenting the text not as a scripture for the dying, but as a guide for the living. According to the Buddhist view, nothing is permanent or fixed. The entire world of our experience is constantly appearing and disappearing at every moment. Using vivid and dramatic imagery, the "Tibetan Book of the Dead presents the notion that most of us are living in a dream that will continue from lifetime to lifetime until we truly awaken by becoming enlightened. Here, Fremantle, who worked closely with Chogyam Trungpa on the 1975 translation of the "Tibetan Book of the Dead (Shambhala), brings the expertise of a lifetime of study to rendering this intriguing classic more accessible and meaningful to the living. "Luminous Emptiness features in-depth explanations of: -The Tibetan Buddhist notions of death and rebirth -The meaning of the five energies and the five elements in Tibetan Buddhism -The mental and physical experience of dying, according to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition

Buddhism is a simple set of facts and principles that, can or cannot be complicated. For those of use who grew up with western "religion" and later in life decided to follow this "spiritual practice", understanding it is a big change. For ME the hardest part is the terminology. Mr. Fremantle in my opinion has done a wonderful job helping me to get a better understanding of this complex spiritual practice.However that being said, I got this book in December of 2015 and it took me a year to read it. Partially because I couldn't just sit and read it for a long time, and partially because of the language. That year spent reading does not mean I got it all committed to memory. But, I do have a better understanding of what some Buddhist expect after their last exhale.Disclaimer. I don't believe in any Gods, and fully expect that my last exhale will be my last thoughts, and that the best I can hope for is to become recycled stardust.The principles and practice, to any degree of the Buddhist faith, help me now, while I'm breathing.Charles

The whole "architecture" of this book is truly wonderful. Its ultimate goal is to articulate the tantric Buddhist perspective in general, and its view of the profound challenges and possibilities that a human being's presence encounters on its journey in the bardo between death and rebirth, in particular. This is beautifully done, but Professor Freemantle has also taken the time to give a context to this esoteric material by writing a very thorough and effective description of a wide range of basic Buddhist perspectives on the nature of consciousness, the arising of ignorance, and the possibilities of practice and awakening. I would say that this introductory material (which is about half of the book) by itself makes reading and studying the book worthwhile, no matter how you relate to the more esoteric parts of it. I've gone back to this book a number of times over the years, and I am deeply grateful for its grounding in the basics and then its opening into more esoteric dimensions.

This book will really allow one "in", but there is no substitute for a qualified teacher.

This book is excellent. The first 2/3 provides an in-depth knowledge of Buddhism necessary to understand the last 1/3 that explains the Tibetan Book of the Dead wonderfully. It was an engaging read - albeit challenging at some points for myself, as I am new to Buddhism. I highly recommend purchasing this book.

I am not a Buddhist. I wanted to learn about Tibetan Buddhism, but the Tibetan Book of the Dead was impossible! This is comprehensive, but explained very well - in layman's terms. Exactly what I wanted. I would agree with another reviewer who says there is so much information it can lead to overload, but I am working through it slowly.

This is excellent, vast teaching, i will always need to be reading and practicingit's messages. I am fortunate to have stumbled across it. Ms. Fremantlewrote a paper about the Guhyasamaja Tantra, that i look forward to,as well.

Ms Freemantle gives a very thorough yet uncomplicated overview of Buddhist principles in general and some nice insights on the Varjrayana. This is much more than commentary on Liberation Through Hearing. Just lovely.

A Luminous read!

First a disclaimer: I know nothing about Japanese literature, and I read Keene's autobiography only because I am fascinated with people who are gifted at mastering other languages, especially difficult ones. (Even some Japanese express surprise that Keene is fluent in their language.)Keene is a lucid writer who chronicles his life with grace and modesty. As is typical with academic autobiographies, the general reader will probably find Keene's early career more interesting than his latter years when he was showered with honors for his multi-volume history of Japanese literature. For one thing, childhoods are more similar than adulthoods. My own concentration flagged as Keene detailed his connections with noted Japanese writers who were all (except for the notorious Mishima) unknown to me.Apparently Keene's life is strictly that of a scholar who loves Western classical music, especially opera. Keene mentions no love affairs of any sort, and his political views are charmingly naïve. (His strongest quasi-political statement is the declaration, "Down with the car!") Of religion there is not a hint. In short, he has eschewed discussion of any larger philosophical questions--his right, of course, but somewhat surprising for man in his late eighties.The book itself is a masterpiece of the bookmaker's art and includes clever drawings by Japanese artist Akira Yamaguchi (although unfortunately for readers like me--the sort who muddle through French and German--many of the captions are in Japanese). The book concludes with a helpful guide to the Japanese individuals mentioned in the text, but the book has no index.

I have long admired Donald Keene's scholarship and was hoping to get some insight into what makes the man tick. Unfortunately, you will find very little about his personal thoughts and nothing about his deep personal relationships, other than friendships (said to be "close") with writers and scholars. Did he ever marry? Did he ever love someone, and if so, whom? What sort of personal travails did he have to go through to reach his position in life? I do not speak of being treated an an outsider, normal in Japan. I finished the book with a sense of dissatisfaction. He explains his career very well but precious little about himself.

Donald Keene is justly famed for his translations of Japanese literature. This is a chronicle of a discrete man; if you know something about modern Japanese writers you will be struck by how much Keene leaves out about the turmoil of post-war Japan. Writers are mentioned by name but Keene does not share his opinions of them. Nonetheless I enjoyed his chronicle of his fascination with Japan and his many remarkable people in England, the U.S. and Japan.

I read this book in two sittings, and found that in a genre often characterized by bloated, self-aggrandizing tales of Me-dom, his was extremely thoughtful and modest and, most importantly, entertaining. I recall a passage where he describes the extent to which his psyche has shifted toward that of the Japanese. It is revealed in the humility with which he tells his story, and by the omissions which anyone would have been forgiven for including (myriad honorary degrees, Japanese government awards, recognition within academic circles). He includes those only which aid the narrative, consistent with his belief that passion for the topic is more important than minutiae.

This is a "polite" autobiography by the greatest living Japanologist. This is a very good read. I was quickly pulled in. I found the read cerebral, refreshing, and peaceful. This book is an absolute must read for anyone who considers himself or herself a Japanophile or Japnologiest (I consider myself the latter). One gets to follow his life sequence of events that lead him to be enveloped by Japanese literature and culture. One is exposed to list of who's-who of Japanese modern literary figures. I love his inclusion of the many Japanese words. I wished he had included the kana and kanji versions as well. The illustrations by Chang Jae Lee are a great touch. I found the typography and whitespace enhance the beauty of the book and its story. Separate from how good the read is I have a few disappointments. I found it very tatemae or "pubic face." The reader is wrapped or shielding from many unpleasant facts. There is not a word about any person he was every romantically involved with. But this is true to his nature. When given the opportunity to write a biography of Mishima Yokio, he was unable to do it. He didn't want to pry into the private life of Mishima. He also shields the reader from gaijin. That word does not appear in this book. He mutes the feelings that Japanese have towards foreigners. He does tell use how the Nobel Prize of literature lead to the suicide of two literary giants. But he shields the reader from much of depression found in Japanese society. I feel that he wrote or imagined the book in Japanese and then translated it into English.In contrast of opposites is the book by John Nathan, "Living Carelessly in Tokyo and Elsewhere". You know John raw feelings, frustrations, overwhelming depression, and passionate loves. You know what from his experience to be constantly be reminded that you are gaijin and frequently depressed. My concluding analysis is Keene-sensei is one of the few westerners to "become Japanese's" and is a citizen there. Dr Nathan is in American and was able to "do" Japanese for only limited number of years.

This is a great autobiography. It's not too clunky with dates and is more interested in what has happened. I quite enjoyed it and I hope my life is at least half as interesting as Keene's is.

My daughter read this for her AP English class and I thought I should read this classic piece of literature as I had never had the opportunity. So I bought it and could not put it down. Months later, I am still thinking about this book, envisioning the cast of characters and events in the novel. Zora Neale Hurston was such a beautiful storyteller. I can see why this book is a classic piece of literature and in my mind, it stand heads above many of the other pieces of literature of have read from this period. I cannot recommend it enough to people.Hurston opens up a space for us to envision life shortly after Emancipation - where African Americans were freed but not free. She illuminates an early Black community (true) and one of the strong women (fictional) in that community. The trials and tribulations of the many characters and the barriers they encountered - the moments of joy, happiness, and pain all grip the reader and help the reader to not only imagine but to feel what it might have felt like to live during this time in the community with the people. A masterful work.

I've set a goal to reread the classics I read when I was way too young to appreciate them. I first read THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD because my older friend, Becky, told me it was "great" when I was about ten. I remember thinking it was a nice story, and that's about it. Coming back to forty years later, I can agree that it's great, but there's so much more here.The most special part of Zora Neale Hurston's writing is that she takes subjects that society wants to segment into "good" or "bad" and makes them human -- thereby making them complicated. Subjects like infidelity, domestic abuse, killing for self-protection, killing as an act of mercy, colorism, white savior complex, poverty, female pride, female submission, moral relativism... You name a tough topic, and Hurston handles it in this book with a deft touch rarely found in today's world.NOW I understand why it's a classic & don't just have to take everyone else's word for it. Definitely worth a read or ten.

Hurston gives a window view into a place that shows a growing or blossoming of a woman's life. It journeys on a three-fold path from Janie's life with her grandma through 3 marriages that unfold new discoveries of Janie as she awakens to the power of her ability to lead herself. Hurston was ahead of her time in the sense that she was already living as one who did not need to fight the battle but had arrived and 'was.'

This is truly a classic and teachable from so many direction you will not be able to stand it. You can run a class for nearly a month discussing the levels, layers, textures, and nuances to the characters and their intentions. There are modes of language, characterization, dialect, motivation, conflict, and desire that can go on forever in a classroom or book club discussion. I fell in love with the woman with so much pain from men, but always willing to feel love. You will be entangled in the world of these people so quickly you will not believe it. I suggest you download the audible version so you can take in the dynamics of Ruby Dee reading Hurston's beautiful language.

This must be very nearly a perfect novel, a short classic like Old Man and the Sea, Great Gatsby, Catcher in the Rye, Huckleberry Finn, with its own unique style and identity.... The racy black vernacular drives the story along while the voice of the narrator achieves levels of poetic intensity approaching myth... I found it gripping almost to the point of unputdownable from the first sentence...

I can't remember the last time I read a book that moved me as deeply as 'Their Eyes Were Watching God." But like all "great" books, it may not be for everyone. A Millennial reader, for example, might be inclined to lose patience with a woman who spends 20 years of her life with a couple loser husbands before meeting her one true love. Even though there is no story without that context. It's also possible that an older generation of women readers, Baby Boomers, for example, may be more inclined to sit quietly and say nothing, while nodding and smiling gently in response to a Millennial reader's impatience.The man who finally enters Janie's life and steals her heart is not without flaws. But. He knows how to love her. Deeply, unconditionally, joyfully. There is no "happily ever after" for Tea Cake and Janie, but what he gives her in the brief time they are together is life: fully realized, fully lived.A remarkable work of literary fiction by a skilled and soulful writer who knew stuff.

Zora Neale Hurston catches the spirit of African-Americans at that time and masterfully relays it to readers with a skilful mix of vernacular and formal English. This book is somber, insightful, relatable, and witty. More than once its blending of humor and imagery that is so uniquely Black caught me off guard, sending me into fits of laughter. Conversely, the journey and trials that Janie goes through are near heartbreaking. That this book was published in 1937 and still so powerful is a testament to the author's skill. Those who are not familiar with African-American or Caribbean dialect may find this a more challenging read, but it is well worth it.
