I posted the ninth and last of my completed translations of Ohanashi goju hassen (tentative English title: 58 Selected Writings) on October 18. I haven’t worked on it since February 2007, since I decided it would be more fruitful to devote my attention elsewhere.
Intuition tells me that the work is a little too “Japanese-y” to be of benefit to English-speakers (with apologies to any Utada Hikaru-haters out there). Nevertheless, I will keep the promise I initially made at Tenrikyo Forum: If there is anything that seems interesting in the Table of Contents (Click “Read more”), specify a request to me at roy@tenrikyology.com and I’ll work on it. Translation-on-demand, if you will.
Note that the translations of the titles among the ones I haven’t translated are tentative since I have yet to read most of them, let alone know what they are actually about.
I have still yet to begin on my promised follow-up feature/project for Tenrikyology.com. Hopefully I can start on it soon and so it will be the main feature here for the rest of 2009.
