Editing Edwin McClellan

Edwin McClellan (24 October 1925 – 27 April 2009) was a British Japanologist who was an academic—a scholar, teacher, writer, translator and interpreter of Japanese literature and culture.

McClellan was born in Kobe, Japan, in 1925 to a Japanese mother, Teruko Yokobori and British father, an early representative of Lever Brothers in Japan. His mother and older brother died when he was two. McClellan and his father were repatriated to Britain in 1942 aboard the Tatsuta Maru, a passenger liner requisitioned by the Japanese navy (and later torpedoed by a U.S. submarine) to repatriate British nationals from throughout Southeast Asia.
