  • Section 4 Chapter 12.Pdf
    Section 4 The so-called principle of restorative-revolutionary Chapter 12 Japanese history is like this. If we delete the legendary primitive age that is said as 1,000 years without letters from the political history like the age of Takamagahara, Japanese race have attacked and persecuted the Imperial Household for almost 1,500 years as unbroken traitors as if they had been in a body since they had entered into the period that history has been recorded. –What thought were they based on? We shall not make an established theory through in all ages reverse only from the surface of the political theory. We discovered that interpretation of history by the theory of Japanese constitution quite reverse like the Ptolemaic system by investigation of described actions in the political history and induction from ethical history that considers thoughts. Racial actions follow racial thoughts, and every racial history who has divided from one human being has common way of social evolution. So, the political and ethical history describes and explains the fact and reason of evolution of special races and the philosophy of the theory of social evolution that is common with all races forms the basis of the political and ethical history of every race as a historical philosophy that studies the trace of social evolution (I wish you finished reading the previous Section, The theory of biological evolution and social philosophy). As the ancient and medieval history of all races should be interpreted by a principle of blood superiority and a principle of loyalty and filial piety, the ancient and medieval history of Japanese race must be interpreted laying a principle of blood superiority and a principle of loyalty and filial piety a fundamental thought as a natural way of social evolution.

  • Representations of Travel in Medieval Japan by Kendra D. Strand A
    Aesthetics of Space: Representations of Travel in Medieval Japan by Kendra D. Strand A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Asian Languages and Cultures) in The University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Emerita Professor Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen, Chair Associate Professor Kevin Gray Carr Professor Ken K. Ito, University of Hawai‘i Manoa Associate Professor Jonathan E. Zwicker © Kendra D. Strand 2015 Dedication To Gregory, whose adventurous spirit has made this work possible, and to Emma, whose good humor has made it a joy. ii Acknowledgements Kind regards are due to a great many people I have encountered throughout my graduate career, but to my advisors in particular. Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen has offered her wisdom and support unfalteringly over the years. Under her guidance, I have begun to learn the complexities in the spare words of medieval Japanese poetry, and more importantly to appreciate the rich silences in the spaces between those words. I only hope that I can some day attain the subtlety and dexterity with which she is able to do so. Ken Ito and Jonathan Zwicker have encouraged me to think about Japanese literature and to develop my voice in ways that would never have been possible otherwise, and Kevin Carr has always been incredibly generous with his time and knowledge in discussing visual cultural materials of medieval Japan. I am indebted to them for their patience, their attention, and for initiating me into their respective fields. I am grateful to all of the other professors and mentors with whom I have had the honor of working at the University of Michigan and elsewhere: Markus Nornes, Micah Auerback, Hitomi Tonomura, Leslie Pinkus, William Baxter, David Rolston, Miranda Brown, Laura Grande, Youngju Ryu, Christi Merrill, Celeste Brusati, Martin Powers, Mariko Okada, Keith Vincent, Catherine Ryu, Edith Sarra, Keller Kimbrough, Maggie Childs, and Dennis Washburn.

Many of the best-known tales about Genpei War warriors exist because of a collection of War Tale (gunki monogatari) texts known as the Heike Monogatari, which detail the highs and lows of the war, with embellishment and artistic licence. While much scholarly attention has focused on one fourteenth century performance version of this text, other variants have not been so closely studied.

  • The Teeth and Claws of the Buddha: Monastic Warriors and Sohei In
    OF Japanese history THETEE A DOLPHSON “This is, in many ways, the best book we are likely to have on violence and its political and social origins T among the early medieval Buddhist/Shinto clergy for quite some time. Comprehensive, lucid, and HE authoritative, The Teeth and Claws of the Buddha examines the interconnections among the members of BUDDHA Japan’s ruling trifunctional elite in a way that contributes rich insights into the very nature of Heian and T THE TEETH AND CLAWS Kamakura society. This study is long overdue and establishes Adolphson as one of a handful of scholars HAND CLAWS who have dealt with religious protests and violence in an intelligent and captivating way.” —W. Wayne Farris, University of Hawai‘i OF THE BUDDHA “Mikael Adolphson has presented the first cogent explanation of the role of violence in Japanese monas- teries, interrogating the much-misunderstood role of the so-called warrior monks. Based on a wide and deep knowledge of primary sources, Adolphson has both advanced the scholarly understanding of the broader configurations of the samurai and has also done a fine job of dispelling many myths that persist in Japanese and Western popular culture. This is our first true picture of the various types of men who Monastic Warriors and Sōhei in Japanese History wielded arms on behalf of religious institutions—few of whom were actually monks.” —G. Cameron Hurst, University of Pennsylvania Mikael Adolphson is associate professor of Japanese history in the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations, Harvard University.

  • Takeda Shingens Erster Feldzug
    Takeda Shingens erster Feldzug Bernd Schacht, Berlin Im elften Monat des ersten Jahres Taiei1 (1521) wurde dem Landesherrn der ostjapanischen Provinz Kai (heutige Präfektur Yamanashi), Takeda Nobutora Ĝö´l (1494–1574), ein Sohn geboren. Nobutora war in jenem Jahr in heftige Kämpfe mit seinem Nachbarn Imagawa Ujichika }к (1473–1526), dem Beherrscher der Provinz Suruga (heutige Präfektur Shizuo- ka), verwickelt, dessen Truppen in Kai eingedrungen waren. Als man in TsutsujigasakiŚř2, der Residenz der Takeda am nördlichen Rand der Kôfu-Ebene, Kunde vom Überfall der Imagawa erhielt und das Schlimmste befürchten mußte, suchte Nobutoras schwangere Frau am sech- zehnten Tag des neunten Monats Schutz in einer höher gelegenen Bergfeste3, wo sie am dritten Tag des elften Monats zur Stunde des Hundes (etwa zwischen sieben und neun Uhr abends) einem Knaben das Leben schenkte. Die Geburt des Kindes schien ein gutes Omen zu sein, denn nur kurze Zeit später, am dreiundzwanzigsten Tag desselben Monats, kam es zu einer entscheidenden Schlacht, und Nobutora gelang es, den Feind vernichtend zu schlagen. Am 1 Die Ära Taiei à (1521–1528). 2 Wörtlich “Azalienhügel”. Takeda Nobutora hatte 1519 die Residenz der Takeda von Isawa im Osten der großen Kôfu-Ebene an den nördlichen Rand derselben verlegt. Tsutsujigasaki, im Norden, Osten und Westen von Bergen umgeben, war eher ein befestigtes Anwesen als eine Burg und erfüllte vorrangig die Funktion eines Regierungs- und Verwaltungszentrums.
