Japan history, biography, and classic Japanese literature. We are a

The Nihonshi list is open to all, including enthusiastic amateurs of
Japan history, professional scholars, students, writers, or anyone
who likes to read and discuss history, literature or biography. We
hope that this list is a manner for all of us to learn and discuss Japan
history, literature and culture, in a casual environment, by means of a
subscription based mailing list on yahoo groups.
