Hermann Hesse once stated that his Japanese readers understood him best. This book examines his reception in Japan and of Japan in the context of a transcultural reception process. It analyses the different phases of Hesse’s reception in Japan, the influence of Wilhelm Gundert as well as his epistolary exchange with his Japanese readers.
