    HIRATA KOKUGAKU and the TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon

    SPIRITS AND IDENTITY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY NORTHEASTERN JAPAN: HIRATA KOKUGAKU AND THE TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon Fujiwara A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Asian Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2013 © Gideon Fujiwara, 2013 ABSTRACT While previous research on kokugaku , or nativism, has explained how intellectuals imagined the singular community of Japan, this study sheds light on how posthumous disciples of Hirata Atsutane based in Tsugaru juxtaposed two “countries”—their native Tsugaru and Imperial Japan—as they transitioned from early modern to modern society in the nineteenth century. This new perspective recognizes the multiplicity of community in “Japan,” which encompasses the domain, multiple levels of statehood, and “nation,” as uncovered in recent scholarship. My analysis accentuates the shared concerns of Atsutane and the Tsugaru nativists toward spirits and the spiritual realm, ethnographic studies of commoners, identification with the north, and religious thought and worship. I chronicle the formation of this scholarly community through their correspondence with the head academy in Edo (later Tokyo), and identify their autonomous character. Hirao Rosen conducted ethnography of Tsugaru and the “world” through visiting the northern island of Ezo in 1855, and observing Americans, Europeans, and Qing Chinese stationed there. I show how Rosen engaged in self-orientation and utilized Hirata nativist theory to locate Tsugaru within the spiritual landscape of Imperial Japan. Through poetry and prose, leader Tsuruya Ariyo identified Mount Iwaki as a sacred pillar of Tsugaru, and insisted one could experience “enjoyment” from this life and beyond death in the realm of spirits.

In 2016 the cherry blossom season hit its peak in Kyoto and Tokyo right on time at the end of March and beginning of April providing some great displays. In 2017, the season initial- ly was forecast to be slightly early, but ended up a little late due to cold weather. The 2018 cherry blossom season was more than a week early in some locations and a few days early at oth- ers. In each case we made slight adjustments to our schedule to deliver stunning displays. Due to positive feedback from our guests we are repeating our core two-week cherry blossom tours that begin and end in To- kyo in each case. The first of these tours commences on March 15th with start dates of 29th March and 15th April for the following two tours. alps and the onsen (hot spring) town of Kamiyamada/ We have a couple of 10-day tours.

  • History of Akita Castle

    History of Akita Castle

    History of Akita Castle KUMAGAI Kimio Akita Castle is a josaku (government fortification) located in the northernmost domains of Japan and among the ancient josaku it is unique and of great interest in terms of significant changes to its historical background. This paper traces the history of Akita Castle, from the formation of Akita district through to the Gangyo War and clarifies its distinctive characteristics. The foundation of Akita Castle originated with the creation of Dewa no Ki (a government fortifica- tion in the Dewa area), which was moved out of Ideha County and relocated to Akita Village in 733. Akita Dewa no Ki was positioned as a controlling stronghold in the northern districts governed in accordance with the ritsuryo codes; however, unlike regular josaku, its control of its domains was weak. Subsequently, due to a period of reorganization of josaku by the Nakamaro administration, Monou Castle and Okachi Castle were constructed, and at this time Dewa no Ki was renamed Akita Castle, and connected with Mutsu Province by a route on the post-station system, alleviating its isolated location to some degree. However, later, reinforcement of territorial control brought conflict with the natives of Ezo or the northerners, so it became difficult to defend, and in 770 the Dewa Province requested the closure of Akita Castle. The central government approved the request, but a little later the Thirty-Eight Years’ War broke out, and residents in the castle area refused to move to Kawabe County in the south; for this reason, the closure of the castle was postponed. The reorganization of josaku conducted in the reign of Emperor Kammu, aiming at controlling the Ezo mountain route marked a great turning point in the history of Akita Castle.
  • Modernization in the Conversion of Castle Sites to Parks As Seen in the Park Designs of Nagaoka Yasuhei and Honda Seiroku

    Modernization in the Conversion of Castle Sites to Parks As Seen in the Park Designs of Nagaoka Yasuhei and Honda Seiroku

    Urban and Regional Planning Review Vol. 4, 2017 | 211 Modernization in the Conversion of Castle Sites to Parks as Seen in the Park Designs of Nagaoka Yasuhei and Honda Seiroku Nonaka Katsutoshi * Abstract This study aims to elucidate the nature of the conversions of castle sites to public parks in modern times, based on specific park designs of two landscape gardeners, Nagaoka Yasuhei and Honda Seiroku. The study covers four parks created on castle sites: Senshu Park (designed in 1896, Kubota Castle site) and Iwate Park (designed in 1906, Morioka Castle site), both of which were designed by Nagaoka; and Tokushima Park (designed in 1905, Tokushima Castle site) and Wakayama Park (designed in 1915, Wakayama Castle site), which were designed by Honda. Considering the timing and circumstances of the conversions, it can be seen that castle site parks have aspects of commemoration as well as expressing the relationship with the state and historical regional characteristics. The more recent the park design, the more destruction of the remaining earthworks and fortifications it involves. Moreover, there is neither evidence that designers referred to archival records of space or uses of space in pre-modern times on the sites nor of any relationship between park design details and such records or uses. At Senshu Park and Iwate Park, both of which were designed comparatively early, destruction of earthworks and fortifications was limited. The fact that each project was implemented faithfully in accordance with its original design means that such designs were accepted by the bodies implementing the projects. At Tokushima Park the layout of the facilities was changed from the original design.

  • Northern Tohoku and Tsugaru Emishi After the Conquest

    Northern Tohoku and Tsugaru Emishi After the Conquest

    Northern Tohoku and Tsugaru Emishi after the Conquest During the post conquest period the Emishi who were not conquered further north continued to pose problems for the Japanese state, but there was little the latter could do. Exhausted from a century of war the state was itself unable to justify a further push northward due to the diminishing returns of such an invasion, and the difficulties of holding onto the territory north of what is now Morioka. The invasion of the Tohoku and the conquest of the Isawa Emishi took a considerable amount of time and resources and even after the conquest holding onto the gains and administering the territory was all the government could do. The Emishi did not disappear suddenly after 811 when the Japanese army was victorious under Sakanoue no Tamuramaro, but they too changed their approach to the Japanese state. The Tsugaru Emishi became the most powerful group in the post conquest period. Many northern Emishi left beyond the frontier became fushu (Emishi allies) and instead of fighting against the Japanese fought amongst themselves and against the Watarito (Hokkaido) Emishi in the ninth century. There were a number of reasons that held the Japanese state back after the conquest of the Tohoku. The most important of these reasons was the lack of Japanese migrants in the area north of present day Morioka, and unlike the wide Sendai and Kitakami plains the northern regions were heavily forested and mountainous not easily amenable to agricultural development. The Tsugaru area corresponding to northern Aomori prefecture was a natural gateway to Hokkaido and was an important transitional area where trade relations between Japan and the Emishi of Hokkaido took place.
