「八雲とセツ　家族の物語」展　～家族が生まれ　作家へとばけた　熊本暮らし～ 2025/12/02(Tue)～2026/02/15(Sun)

Lafcadio Hearn (1850-1904) lived in Kumamoto for three years as an English teacher at the Fifth Higher School (now Kumamoto University). He supported his family in Kumamoto and his eldest son was born there. He also wrote his first book about Japan, "Unknown Faces of Japan," in Kumamoto. Many of his works, including "A Summer Day's Dream" and "At the Station," are set in Kumamoto. This exhibition will introduce the story of Yakumo, Setsu, and their family through materials related to Yakumo and Setsu, as well as mementos.
