Shinto deity statues in Japan, however, have not yet been investigated scientifcally. Because many Shinto deity statues are enshrined behind closed doors, there are fewer opportunities to investigate them. To examine the diferences and similarities in wood selection between Buddhist and Shinto deity statues, wood identif- cation was conducted on the 11 Shinto deity statues of Matsunoo-taisha Shrine, Kyoto, Japan, using synchrotron X-ray microtomography and conventional microscopy methods.

  • Rites of Blind Biwa Players
    ASIA 2017; 71(2): 567–583 Saida Khalmirzaeva* Rites of Blind Biwa Players DOI 10.1515/asia-2017-0034 Abstract: Not much is known about the past activities of blind biwa players from Kyushu. During the twentieth century a number of researchers and folklorists, such as Tanabe Hisao, Kimura Yūshō,KimuraRirō,Nomura(Ga) Machiko, Narita Mamoru, Hyōdō Hiromi and Hugh de Ferranti, collected data on blind biwa players in various regions of Kyushu, made recordings of their performances and conducted detailed research on the history and nature of their tradition. However, despite these efforts to document and publicize the tradition of blind biwa players and its representatives and their repertory, it ended around the end of the twentieth century. The most extensively docu- mented individual was Yamashika Yoshiyuki 山鹿良之 (1901–1996), one of the last representatives of the tradition of blind biwa players, who was known among researchers and folklorists for his skill in performing and an abundant repertory that included rites and a great many tales. Yamashika was born in 1901 in a farmer family in Ōhara of Tamana District, the present-day Kobaru of Nankan, Kumamoto Prefecture. Yamashika lost the sight in his left eye at the age of four. At the age of twenty-two Yamashika apprenticed with a biwa player named Ezaki Shotarō 江崎初太郎 from Amakusa. From his teacher Yamashika learned such tales as Miyako Gassen Chikushi Kudari 都合戦筑紫 下り, Kikuchi Kuzure 菊池くづれ, Kugami Gassen くがみ合戦, Owari Sōdō 尾張 騒動, Sumidagawa 隅田川 and Mochi Gassen 餅合戦. After three years Yamashika returned home. He was not capable of doing much farm work because his eyesight had deteriorated further by then.

Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.

  • Challenging the Myths of Gender Equity
    Challenging the myths of gender equity Lucy Hansen Exponent news editor Most people on the Montana State campus know what the words gender equity mean. But, how many people know what "think purple week" is? February 13- February 19 of this year "'.'as designated as "think purple week" for the purpose of ce leb~atmg the progress of gender equity in both Montana schools and m the state itself. Becky Bird, the gender equity coordinator for the State of Montana, was the guest speaker at Thursday's sack lune!-. seminar. She emphasized the progress that has been made, and what steps need to be taken in the future to ensure gender equity. "Gender equity means eliminating the barriers that women have traditionally had. We need equity for men and women, not gender discrimination. This isn't a woman's issue, ifs a human rights issue." Bird spoke extensively about equity not in terms of an equal number of men and of women in the work force. but in terms of "allowing people to make choices," concerning employ"Tlent. She spoke on other subjects such as single parents, di5p!aced homemakers, welfare reform, educational reform, and the frustra- • tions of many female students. Because Bird's office is directly affiliated with the higher education system, she emphasized edu­ cation and educational reform. She spoke of the need for practical training in Montana high schools, citing that only 20% of high school grads (nationally) go on to college. "We emphasize college too much and do a great disservice to the 80% of the students that do not go." Bird spoke of the need for more training which would enable more individuals to be self­ sufficient.

That volume was first published in 1994, with a revised compact edition published in 1999. The main text of Shinto jiten is translated into English and publicly available in its entirety at the Kokugakuin University website as "The Encyclopedia of Shinto" (EOS). This English edition of the chronology is based on the one that appeared in the revised version of the Jiten. It is already available online, but it is also being published in book form in hopes of facilitating its use. The original Japanese-language chronology was produced by Inoue Nobutaka and Namiki Kazuko. The English translation was prepared by Carl Freire, with assistance from Kobori Keiko.
