His poetic diary (1936D1945), published only after the war, documents his profound disaffection. In 1945 Nambara became president of Tokyo University and was an eloquent and ardent spokesman for academic freedom. In this first English-language collection of his key work, historian and translator Richard H. Minear introduces Nambara's career and thinking before presenting translations of the most important of Nambara's essays, poems, and speeches.Asian voices.IntellectualsJapanArchivesDissentersJapanArchivesWorld War, 1939-1945JapanSourcesWar and societyJapanHistory20th centurySourcesEducation, HigherJapanPhilosophyHistory20th centurySourcesJapanHistoryAllied occupation, 1945-1952SourcesElectronic books.IntellectualsDissentersWorld War, 1939-1945War and societyHistoryEducation, HigherPhilosophyHistory940.54/25Nanbara Shigeru1889-1974.875431Minear Richard H495796MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458795103321War and conscience in Japan1954445UNINA
