Editor's Note:
Flavio Parisi è capitato a Tokyo quasi per l'ha scelta d'istinto come meta di vacanza dopo i mesi a rovistare tra le carte di un archivio friulano, per la tesi in indologia. In Giappone ha trovato una cultura che mescola antico e moderno, tra panorami struggenti e notti al neon, ma soprattutto una lingua viva e per lui sostanzialmente ignota. Sapeva infatti tre frasi in croce di giapponese, ma si è subito intestardito a impararlo da autodidatta, attaccando bottone con gli avventori un po' alticci delle izakaya e con gli anziani che popolano i sentō, i bagni pubblici dove si va per riscaldare le ossa prima di coricarsi sui futon in case di legno piene di spifferi. Nel giro di qualche mese ha imparato i primi rudimenti, si è iscritto a un corso di calligrafia e soprattutto ha deciso di fermarsi a vivere lì, grazie a uno stipendio da insegnante di dizione per cantanti lirici - con cui parlava per lo più italiano. Ma alla fine il giapponese l'ha imparato, anche perché le persone che incontrava erano tutte incuriosite da questo giovane friulano che voleva a tutti i costi entrare nella loro splendida e difficilissima lingua. Vent'anni dopo, Parisi ha deciso di restituire il favore, insegnando un po' di giapponese a tutti noi. Ma non sfrutta le espressioni idiomatiche, gli alfabeti sillabici e gli ideogrammi, il linguaggio non verbale, le poche regole e le infinite eccezioni, per farci entrare nella filosofia e nella cultura di uno dei paesi più affascinanti al mondo. Scopriremo i vari gradi con cui ci si può inchinare e il complicato galateo per non provocare meiwaku ("fastidio", ma è un eufemismo); ci aiuterà a ordinare al ristorante e a orientarci nelle labirintiche stazioni, ma anche a capire il modo in cui si esprimono (o non si esprimono) le emozioni in pubblico; ci racconterà del rapporto controverso che i giapponesi hanno con la natura e dell'ossessione che hanno per gli hobby altrui, e propri. Alla fine di questo libro forse non saprete parlare giapponese, ma saprete parlare con i giapponesi nel vostro prossimo, inevitabile, viaggio a Tokyo.
