The Question is whether the comindr ssen- ius will be ' native to. the east 07 to the west, says J. S. Tunison in The Atlantic. The case of Japan ms.kes the student of literature and literary possibilities pause. Compare the situation of this empire with that of England in the time of the Tudor sovereigns. The likeness is noteworthy. All the influences of civilization from west and east are focused, sot to speak, upon a political and social organism4 which! is not only wonderfully receptive, but which! also displays the capacity of reaction in its own original elements.1 Looking back at tho history of genius and seeing how largely it belongs to . the .people as v distinguished from what may somewhat Irreverently be palled the blooded stock of a nation, one jfeels like inquiring how deeply into the suDstrate 01 numan are in japan tne alien influences have penetrated. When these reach the depths where folk tradition lurks and the popular Imagination;. slumbers, then the world may well look for a reac tion in which the nation will show all that it is capable Of in literature. , meanwhile observe, by way of presage, that two of the most striking literary phe nomena of the present day are Budyard Kipling, with his overlay of Hindoolsm on English human -nature, and : Lafcadio Hearn; with his varied experience, patient ly inquisitive about 'everything Japanese.' Finally, whether the successor of Dante and Goethe rises' from,1 Asia or from the west, all the' light of the past' shows that he will speak not the thoughts of a nation, but of a worldwide culture; that he will at last unite the divided thought of human ity and combine in one view two civiliza- LtiOns that have,, been in antagonism for cnousanus or years. ," , ?.
