Tales of Old Japan — Full Reading (47 Ronin & Folktales)

Tales of Old Japan is presented here as a complete, tale-by-tale reading of A. B. Mitford’s classic collection. This full reading includes the famous THE FORTY-SEVEN RÔNINS plus a wide selection of fairy tales, ghost stories, superstitions, and sermons collected in the late 19th century. A. B. Mitford (Algernon Bertram Mitford, later Lord Redesdale) compiled these stories after his travels and diplomatic service in Japan. First published in the 1870s, Tales of Old Japan introduced many Western readers to samurai legend, yokai lore, and traditional fairy tales. This recording aims to make Mitford’s translations accessible to modern listeners who want the full text read aloud, preserving the tone and cultural flavor of the originals while noting their 19th-century viewpoint. This video is organized tale-by-tale so you can jump to the stories you love: the historical drama of the Forty-Seven Rônins, the tragic Loves of Gompachi and Komurasaki, Kazuma’s Revenge, and a long suite of fairy tales — from The Tongue-Cut Sparrow to The Battle of the Ape and the Crab. The collection also contains curious superstition tales like The Vampire Cat of Nabéshima and reflective sermons attributed to Kiu-ô. Whether you’re studying Japanese literature, exploring public-domain audiobooks, or simply enjoying atmospheric readings, this video offers a continuous, unabridged listening experience. 0:00 THE FORTY-SEVEN RÔNINS. 35:40 THE LOVES OF GOMPACHI AND KOMURASAKI. 1:21:22 KAZUMA'S REVENGE. 1:53:58 A STORY OF THE OTOKODATÉ OF YEDO. 2:55:01 THE WONDERFUL ADVENTURES OF FUNAKOSHI JIUYÉMON. 3:48:02 THE ETA MAIDEN AND THE HATAMOTO. 4:30:31 FAIRY TALES - Introduction. 4:31:43 FAIRY TALES - THE TONGUE-CUT SPARROW. 4:35:26 FAIRY TALES - THE ACCOMPLISHED AND LUCKY TEA-KETTLE. 4:38:24 FAIRY TALES - THE CRACKLING MOUNTAIN. 4:42:41 FAIRY TALES - THE STORY OF THE OLD MAN WHO MADE WITHERED TREES TO BLOSSOM. 4:48:23 FAIRY TALES - THE BATTLE OF THE APE AND THE CRAB. 4:51:42 FAIRY TALES - THE ADVENTURES OF LITTLE PEACHLING. 4:54:58 FAIRY TALES - THE FOXES' WEDDING. 4:57:17 FAIRY TALES - THE HISTORY OF SAKATA KINTOKI. 5:00:26 FAIRY TALES - THE ELVES AND THE ENVIOUS NEIGHBOUR. 5:02:37 THE GHOST OF SAKURA. 6:11:27 HOW TAJIMA SHUMÉ WAS TORMENTED BY A DEVIL OF HIS OWN CREATION. 6:21:24 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - Introduction. 6:23:23 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - THE VAMPIRE CAT OF NABÉSHIMA. 6:37:49 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - THE STORY OF THE FAITHFUL CAT. 6:40:49 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - HOW A MAN WAS BEWITCHED AND HAD HIS HEAD SHAVED BY THE FOXES. 6:51:05 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - THE GRATEFUL FOXES. 7:06:01 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - THE BADGER'S MONEY. 7:14:13 CONCERNING CERTAIN SUPERSTITIONS - THE PRINCE AND THE BADGER. 7:20:20 JAPANESE SERMONS. 7:34:47 SERMONS ONE - THE SERMONS OF KIU-Ô, VOLUME ONE. 7:59:20 SERMON TWO - THE SERMONS OF KIU-Ô, VOLUME ONE. 8:23:42 SERMON THREE - THE SERMONS OF KIU-Ô, VOLUME ONE.
