本の要約

"Brushes with the Great" concerns my various contacts with famous people, both past and present. Even on the level of royalty I may count meetings with both the Emperor and Empress of Japan, as well as the Crown Prince and Princess, also with Queen Elizabeth II, with Prince Charles and Princess Diana. Among literary figures I look back to William Shakespeare as well as Sir Thomas More, and more recently to GM Hopkins and TS Eliot, to GK Chesterton, to Evelyn Waugh and Graham Greene, as well as my two teachers at Oxford, CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien.
There are also such famous Jesuits as Martin D'Arcy, James Brodrick and Frederick Copleston. All the same, what I emphasize in them are aspects from a personal viewpoint, for which they are less well known to the world.

著者のプロフィール

Peter Milward was born in London on October 12, 1925, and educated at Wimbledon College (a Jesuit high school). He entered the Society of Jesus in 1943, and after various studies he went on to specialize in the Classics and English at Oxford University. He came to Japan in 1954 and after further studies was ordained priest in 1960. From 1962 onwards he has taught English literature at Sophia University in Tokyo. In addition to founding the Renaissance Institute, the Hopkins Society of Japan and the Chesterton Society of Japan, he has published some 400 books, mostly as textbooks for Japanese students, many of them translated into Japanese, but now most of them out of print. Several of his books, especially those on the drama of Shakespeare and the poetry of Hopkins, have been published in England and America. Even in retirement he is still teaching and writing, as he enters his 88th year (or beiju).
