For over a thousand years sumo tournaments were exclusively held by Japanese men, and up until the 1960s foreigners were almost unheard of in the professional sumo scene. As the world’s modernization and internationalization accelerated so did foreign interest in the National sport of sumo. Today the sport has spread to over 87 countries which have joined the International Sumo Federation. With an interest in professional sumo in Japan at an all-time low and with fewer wrestlers applying to stables than ever before, viewers of tournaments and media coverage of events has been decreasing, which is closely followed by western originated sports having overtaken sumo in popularity e.g. soccer and baseball. Yet the interest in sumo on an international scale has increased considerably. In which way has this rising internationalization affected the sumo world and the professional sumo world and how is it reflected in modern Japanese society, in what way did the wrestlers coming from overseas experience the sumo culture compared to how it is today? Today the sumo scene is largely dominated by Mongolian wrestlers, how did this come to pass and how has the society of Japan reacted to these changes.

    Sumo (相撲 Sumō?) Is a Competitive Full-Contact Sport Where a Wrestler (Rikishi) Attempts to Force Another Wrestler out of A

    SUMO Sumo (相撲 sumō?) is a competitive full-contact sport where a wrestler (rikishi) attempts to force another wrestler out of a circular ring (dohyō) or to touch the ground with anything other than the soles of the feet. The sport originated in Japan, the only country where it is practiced professionally. It is generally considered to be a gendai budō (a modern Japanese martial art), though this definition is incorrect as the sport has a history spanning many centuries. Many ancient traditions have been preserved in sumo, and even today the sport includes many ritual elements, such as the use of salt purification, from the days when sumo was used in the Shinto religion. Life as a rikishi is highly regimented, with rules laid down by the Sumo Association. Most sumo wrestlers are required to live in communal "sumo training stables" known in Japanese as heya where all aspects of their daily lives—from meals to their manner of dress—are dictated by strict tradition. 1 Origin In addition to its use as a trial of strength in combat, sumo has also been associated with Shinto ritual, and even certain shrines carry out forms of ritual dance where a human is said to wrestle with a kami (a Shinto divine spirit). It was an important ritual at the imperial court. Representatives of each province were ordered to attend the contest at the court and fight. They were required to pay for their travels themselves. The contest was known as sumai no sechie, or "sumai party." 2 Sumo wrestler Somagahana Fuchiemon, c.

    GAIJIN YOKOZUNA: A BIOGRAPHY OF CHAD ROWAN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN ENGLISH AUGUST 2004 By Mark Panek Dissertation Committee: Craig Howes, Chairperson George Simson Ian Macmillan Cristina Bacchilega Jonathan Okamura © Copyright 2004 by Mark Panek 111 Dedication For Janice Rowan IV Acknowledgments I wish to thank Janice Rowan, Chad Rowan, George "Ola" Rowan, Randy "Nunu" Rowan, Larry Aweau, Dr. Bob Beveridge, and George Wolfe for hours of invaluable, candid interviews; George Kalima, Jesse Kuhaulua (Azumazeki Oyakata), Fiamalu Penitani (Musashimaru), and Percy Kipapa for insight into the sumo world; and the others I was able to speak with more briefly, most ofwhom appear in the text. This all would have been impossible without the generosity ofDavid Meisenzahl, who provided a place to stay while I did my research in Tokyo; ofthe Sekikawa family for the same reason; ofTamiko Tanigawa for the same reason, but in Honolulu (and for the money she lent along the way to allow me to focus on my writing); ofFrancis Ward, who introduced me to Japan; ofthe Rowan, Spencer, and Kalima families for their friendship and support; and ofmy patient wife, Noriko. I chose the UH English Department for my Ph.D. because I wanted to work with Craig Howes at the UH's Center for Biographical Research. For the past four years Craig has been confirming the wisdom ofthis choice, from grounding me in lifewriting theory, to looking over draft after draft, to helping copy-edit the final version.
