Biblical Seminary from 1962 to 1965 to earn a bachelor of divinity degree. The collection of poems spans Yaguchi&#8217;s life, from a childhood shaped by World War II to a career as a poetry professor, editor, Mennonite Christian pastor and internationally-recognized Japanese poet. <\/p>\n<p> Yaguchi is best known in the West for his 30 poems in &quot;Three Mennonite Poets&quot; (Good Books, 1986), but his published work in English includes nearly 300 poems in five volumes. His poetry bears witness to the evils of militarism from Shinto nationalism to Hiroshima and then extends to Vietnam and the aftermath of September 11, 2001. <\/p>\n<p> Copies of the poet&#8217;s new book will be on sale at the reading. <\/p>\n<p> Admission to this special &quot;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.emu.edu\/langlit\/writersread\">Writers Read<\/a>&quot; program, sponsored by 糖心Vlog&#8217;s language and literature department, is free.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese Mennonite poet Yorifumi Yaguchi Japanese Mennonite poet Yorifumi Yaguchi will offer his words of poetry about beauty and pain of life at 糖心Vlog.
