A minor point. Oreste Vaccari's wife, Elisa Enko Vaccari (or Enko Elisa Vaccari) is identified as Japanese in the article, something I myself had assumed to be the case, but in reading The Man Who Saved Kabuki: Faubion Bowers and Theatre Censorship in Occupied Japan by Shiro Okamoto, translated by Samuel L. Leiter, I came across the following reference to her: "though born in Japan, she was a presumably wealthy Italian...." [p. 63] Japanese or Italian? Perhaps a worthy clarification project for some grad student out there.Shosai (talk) 09:29, 14 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
