He ended his life as idobei leaving nothing but ido (well) and bei (fence). Of the wakusei/idobei, the author Kurokawa Shuzo said in his book “Planet Kuhara Fusanosuke” published in 1936: “The term wakusei is often used to describe a dark horse in political circles. If the word wakusei implies inestimable power and unpredictability, late Goto Shimpei fits the bill Kuhara Fusanosuke/ Okubo 4 perfectly. If we look for a candidate among today’s politicians, nobody embodies it better than Kuhara Fusanosuke.” Fusanosuke was born on June 4, 1869, to Kuhara Shozaburo and Fumiko, in Hagi, a former castle town of Choshu han (domain in the Edo period) – present-day Yamaguchi prefecture. Hagi attained the rare feat of producing four Prime Ministers: Ito Hirobumi, Yamagata Aritomo, Katsura Taro and Tanaka Gi’ichi. As major players of the Meiji Restoration, a staggering number of former samurai revolutionaries from Choshu obtained important posts in the new government, forming what was sometimes called derisively the Choshu faction that wielded tremendous clout. The Kuhara family was not part of this exclusive clique, but belonged to the other Choshu faction –those who did not become either professional soldiers or politicians, but advanced into the world of commerce. Leaving the hidebound former castle town where lingered the old sense of samurai superiority, they headed for Osaka instead, among whom was Fujita Denzaburo, a younger brother of Kuhara Shozaburo. Osaka was then an important base of Japan’s incipient capitalism. While the Choshu faction comprised of former samurai bickered with other former han factions, the other Choshu faction of merchants worked steadily on. It was only a few years after the birth of Fusanosuke that his father, Shozaburo, left Hagi to join his younger brother in Osaka. A century has passed since Kuhara Fusanosuke founded the Kuhara zaibatsu. Not many people recognize the name Kuhara today, but among the contemporary giant enterprises are several, the foundation of which Fusanosuke laid. Starting with mining, Fusanosuke diversified his business empire. Incurring losses during the post World War I depression, he handed his businesses to his brother-in-law, Ayukawa Yoshisuke. Fusanosuke turned to politics, holding such prominent posts as the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications and the 8th party chairman of the Seiyukai. His checkered career as a politician included a months-long incarceration for interrogation on suspicion of involvement in the 2.26 Incident in 1936. Seen from the earth, planets seem to wander among distant fixed stars, thus people in ancient times coined the term Wakusei (the two ideograms composing the term literally mean ‘wandering star’). When “Wakusei” is applied to Fusanosuke, however, it is not to imply ‘straying aimlessly.’ It is referring to the term’s other attribute, inestimable power. The solar system has nine major planets and countless smaller ones. I will follow the bold movements of a group of planets led by Fusanosuke, and try to find out who he really was, this formidable industrialist who helped build a modern nation after the Meiji Restoration. PART I HORNFELS Assassination Susa Bay is part of Kita-nagato Quasi-National Park. A drowned valley, the bay is dotted with inlets and islets, and has a tranquil feel about it. Outside the bay, the scenery changes drastically. A sheer cliff soars 100 meters high above the austere expanse of the Sea of Japan. The precipice of hornfels (dark, fine-grained metamorphic rock consisting Kuhara Fusanosuke/ Okubo 5 largely of quartz, mica and feldspar) meets the strong wind with its cliff-face, which, roughened by coastal erosion, exposes the strata. Susa is an old fishing village, situated in the northeast of Yamaguchi prefecture. During the Edo period it belonged to Choshu-han (domain), and was the fief of the Masuda, a chief vassal of Choshu-han. The Masuda, originally a local magnet, had served Mori Motonari in the mid-sixteenth century during the Sengoku period. At the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600 (Keicho 5), the Mori sided with the Western camp, which subsequently lost. The Mori forfeited control of Chugoku (present-day Okayama, Hiroshima, Yamaguchi, Shimane and Tottori prefectures), and was confined into the western corner of the mainland. The Masuda followed their master and settled in Susa with a diminished fief of 12,000 koku. (Note: A fief of 12,000 ‘koku’ means a fief with the production capacity of 12,000 ‘koku’ of rice; 1 ‘koku’ is 180 liters.) When serving the Masuda, the Kuhara assumed the name Sasaki, claiming to have descended from samurai, Sasaki Takatsuna. The Kuhara, however, was not included a group of vassals who followed the Mori to Bocho (Suo and Nagato, present-day Yamaguchi prefecture). When chased out of Hiroshima, with the fief drastically reduced from 1,120,000 koku to 360,000 koku, the Mori was obliged to leave many vassals behind. Some of them chose to give up the status of samurai and followed the Mori to Bocho where they settled as farmers. The Sasaki stayed on in Kubara, Mino-gun, Iwami- koku, engaged in farming, but during the Kan’ei era (1624-44) followed the Masuda to Susa. It was then that the Sasaki family took up the new name, Kubara. The family was to switch the pronunciation of its name from Kubara to Kuhara later on, when they moved out of Susa to Hagi after a certain incident. Kubara Hampei Yasushige was the 10th generation Kubara after the family had settled in Susa. Kaheiji, the 1st Kubara must have been a very competent farmer; shortly after moving to Susa, he changed his name to Sukezaemon, and was appointed urajoya, village head. A growing family fortune reached its peak in Hampei’s time, grandfather to Kuhara Fusanosuke. He was granted a quasi samurai status; he was allowed to carry swords, and granted the samurai post of sendo, head of lower ranking sailors cum fishermen, while he also doubled as village head. He owned and operated two large vessels, and also acted as a treasurer for his master, the Masuda family. His success must have incited envy from his fellow merchants as well as the samurai class, including or especially, the Masuda themselves. On the eve of the Meiji Restoration, the samurai class was hard up, socially privileged yet economically deprived. Then, tragedy struck… Hampei rambled along the Susa River with a lantern in hand on December 16th, 1863.

  • Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea
    The Journal of Asian Studies Vol. 70, No. 3 (August) 2011: 706–729. © The Association for Asian Studies, Inc., 2011 doi:10.1017/S0021911811000878 A Sentimental Journey: Mapping the Interior Frontier of Japanese Settlers in Colonial Korea JUN UCHIDA This article explores the role of affect and sentiment in shaping cross-cultural encounters in late colonial Korea, as seen and experienced through the eyes of Japanese men and women who grew up in Seoul. By interweaving the oral and written testimonies of former settlers who came of age on the peninsula between the late 1920s and the end of colonial rule in 1945, the paper attempts to reconstruct their emotional journey into adulthood as young offspring of empire: specifically, how they apprehended colonialism, what they felt when encountering different segments of the Korean population, and in what ways their understanding of the world and themselves changed as a result of these interactions. Focusing on the intimate and everyday zones of contact in family and school life, this study more broadly offers a way to understand colonialism without reducing complex local interactions to abstract mechanisms of capital and bureaucratic rule. N WHAT WAYS CAN we talk about colonialism without reducing complex local Ihuman interactions to relations of power, dominance, and hegemony? In pro- posing emotion (see Reddy 2001; Haiyan Lee 2007) or “sensibility” (Wickberg 2007) as a lens through which to investigate the past, a number of studies have implicitly posed a new challenge for scholars of empire. Paying attention to senti- ment and sensibility, they suggest, gets us beyond an analytical grid of race, gender, and class that has dominated cultural history—where colonial studies have reigned and thrived—and allows us to probe more subtle and sensory layers of experience (Wickberg 2007, 673–74).

  • 1 Reexaminating TERAUCHI Masatake's Character
    February 2019 Issue Reexaminating TERAUCHI Masatake's Character - As a “Statesman”- KANNO Naoki, Cheif, Military Archives, Center for Military History Introduction What comes to mind when you think of TERAUCHI Masatake (1852 - 1919)? For example, at the beginning of the Terauchi Cabinet (October 1616 - September 1918), it was ridiculed as being both anachronistic and a non-constitutional cabinet. Using NISHIHARA Kamezo, also known as Terauchi's private secretary, he provided funds of up to 110 million yen to the Duan Qirui government in northern China (the Nishihara Loans). The so-called Rice Riots broke out in his final year, and Siberian Intervention began. Terauchi was also called a protégé of YAMAGATA Aritomo, the leading authority on Army soldiers from former Choshu domain (Choshu-han). On the other hand, what about the succeeding Hara Cabinet (September 1918 - November 1921)? Exactly 100 years ago, HARA Takashi had already started the cabinet that consists of all political party members, except for the three Ministers of the Army, Navy, and Foreign Affairs. After the World War I, a full-on party politics was developed in Japan as global diplomatic trends drastically changed. Compared to Hara, Terauchi has not been evaluated. After Chinese-Japanese relations deteriorated following the Twenty-One Demands in 1915, the aforementioned Nishihara Loans, implemented for recovery, were over-extended to the only northern part of China, the Duan Qirui government only for a limited time. Then, ultimately, the Loans did not lead an improvement in relationships. Thus it can be said that, until recently, Terauchi's character has been almost entirely neglected by academia.

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.

  • 1 Church and State ( : Ritsuryo Saisei Itchi Kami
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Welcome to TRUSpace | TRUSpace 1 State Shinto and the Use of Shrines in Japanese Colonies By Cary S. Takagaki In the third month of 1868, the newly formed Meiji government announced its intention to return to the ritsuryo system of government that had been in place during the Nara and Heian periods. This was a system that held to the concept of unity between church and state (saisei itchi). Thus, the Jingikan, Office of (Shinto) Deities (often translated as Office of Kami Worship), was revived in that same month as one of seven departments in the Dajokan, the administrative organ of the state, and in an attempt to “purify” the tradition, a policy of separating Buddhism from Shinto (shinbutsu bunri-rei) was adopted.1 However, in July of 1869, the Jingikan was given the highest rank of all government offices, placing it above the Dajokan, and in the following year an Imperial Rescript on the Enshrinement of the Kami was issued, asserting that, along with various Shinto gods, all the emperors of Japan were to be worshiped as kami: Now that the imperial dignity has passed to Us, small and frail of form though we be, we are afraid both night and day that there will be some want in Our performance of the Imperial duties. We thereby enshrine with the Jingikan (The Office of Kami Worship), the kami of Heaven and Earth, together with the eight kami of Kamimusubi-no-kami, Takamimusubi-no-kami, Tamatsu-memusubi-no-kami, Ikumusubi-no-kami, Taramusubi-no-kami, Omiyame-no-kami, Miketsukami and Kotoshironushi-no-kami, and along with them, the souls of all past Emperors.
