Shaping Darkness in Hyakki Yagyō Emaki
Asian Studies III (XIX), 1 (2015), pp.9–27 Shaping Darkness in hyakki yagyō emaki Raluca NICOLAE* Abstract In Japanese culture, the yōkai, the numinous creatures inhabiting the other world and, sometimes, the boundary between our world and the other, are obvious manifestations of the feeling of fear, “translated” into text and image. Among the numerous emaki in which the yōkai appear, there is a specific type, called hyakki yagyō (the night parade of one hundred demons), where all sorts and sizes of monsters flock together to enjoy themselves at night, but, in the end, are scattered away by the first beams of light or by the mysterious darani no hi, the fire produced by a powerful magical invocation, used in the Buddhist sect Shingon. The nexus of this emakimono is their great number, hyakki, (one hundred demons being a generic term which encompasses a large variety of yōkai and oni) as well as the night––the very time when darkness becomes flesh and blood and starts marching on the streets. Keywords: yōkai, night, parade, painted scrolls, fear Izvleček Yōkai (prikazni, demoni) so v japonski kulturi nadnaravna bitja, ki naseljuje drug svet in včasih tudi mejo med našim in drugim svetom ter so očitno manifestacija občutka strahu “prevedena” v besedila in podobe. Med številnimi slikami na zvitkih (emaki), kjer se prikazni pojavljajo, obstaja poseben tip, ki se imenuje hyakki yagyō (nočna parade stotih demonov), kjer se zberejo pošasti različne vrste in velikosti, da bi uživali v noči, vendar jih na koncu preženejo prvi žarki svetlobe ali skrivnosten darani no hi, ogenj, ki se pojavi z močnim magičnim zaklinjanje in se uporablja pri budistični sekti Shingon. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 4 8 1 0 6 - 1346 Supernatural Elements in No Drama Abstract One of the most neglected areas of research in the field of NS drama is its use of supernatural elements, in particular the calling up of the spirit or ghost of a dead person which is found in a large number (more than half) of the No plays at present performed* In these 'spirit plays', the summoning of the spirit is typically done by a travelling priest (the waki)* He meets a local person (the mae-shite) who tells him the story for which the place is famous and then reappears in the second half of the.play.as the main person in the story( the nochi-shite ), now long since dead. This thesis sets out to show something of the circumstances from which this unique form of drama v/as developed. -
Tres Cuentos En El Inicio Del Intercambio España - Japón
MONOGRÁFICO Mirai. Estudios Japoneses ISSN-e: 2531-145X https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/mira.63248 Tres cuentos en el inicio del intercambio España - Japón. Kayoko Takagi Takanashi1 Recibido: 15 de febrero de 2019 / Aceptado: 15 de abril de 2019 Resumen. Juan Valera, uno de los escritores más destacados de la literatura española del siglo XIX, tradujo y publicó dos cuentos japoneses en 1887: El Pescadorcito Urashima (浦島太郎) y El espejo de Matsuyama (松山鏡), dos cuentos sobradamente conocidos en Japón. Si Urashima Tarō tiene su antecedente ya en Nihonshoki, Matsuyama kagami es de origen budista y pasó a Japón convirtién- dose en un cuento popular de la región de Echigo (actual prefectura de Niigata). Del último, existen versiones en el teatro noh, kyōgen, y rakugo. Por otro lado, el cuento del Ratón Pérez del que ningún niño español podría ser ignorante, se publicó en 1911 en España y se tradujo al japonés en 1953 por la editorial Iwanami. El desfase temporal que separa estas publicaciones indica varios factores históricos que atravesaron los dos países durante este período. Aunque se trata de un campo poco reconocido hasta ahora, hemos de admitir el hecho de que el poder de comunicación de la literatura infantil es altamente significativo cuando hablamos de la cognición temprana de imágenes del mundo. Este trabajo estudiará los elementos que han inspirado a Valera para realizar la traducción de dichos cuentos al español al igual que el caso del cuento español en el terreno japonés. Al mismo tiempo observaremos la recepción y la valoración de estas publicaciones en ambos países. -

Với thanh Katana ngang nhiên, can đảm pha lẫn chút liều mình khi dám chĩa thẳng mũi nhọn về vị thần của đại dương và bão tố… À không. Đó không hẳn chỉ là vị thần của thiên nhiên, mà còn chính là vị thần tượng trưng cho sự phẫn nộ, đau đớn, hối hận về những tội lỗi mà Tsubaki đã trải qua trong ba năm dài dằng dặc.

P. MARUYA Co., L'd., Tokyo KEGAN PAUL,TRUEBNER & Co., L'd., London INTRODUCTION. Subject and Structure .---The Heike Monogatari, one of the masterpieces of Japanese literature, and also one of the main sources of the history of the Gempei period, is a poetic narrative of the fall of the Heike from the position of supremacy it had gained under Taira Kiyomori to almost complete destruction. The Heike, like the Genji, was a warrior clan, but had quickly lost its hardy simplicity under the influence of life in the Capital, and identified itself almost entirely with the effeminate Fujiwara Courtiers whose power it had usurped, so that the struggle between it and the Genji was really more one between courtiers and soldiers, between literary officials and military leaders. Historically this period stands between the Heian era of soft elegance and the Kamakura age of undiluted militarism. The Heike were largely a clan of emasculated Bushi, and their leader Kiyomori, though he obtained his supremacy by force of arms, assumed the role of Court Noble and strove to rule the country by the same device of making himself grandfather to the Emperor as the Fujiwara family had previously done. -

I was sorry to lose the beautiful lake view, but I found it necessary to remove to the northern quarter of the city, into a very quiet Street behind the mouldering castle. My new home is a katchiu-yashiki, the ancient residence of some samurai of high rank. It is shut off from the street, or rather roadway, skirting the castle moat by a long, high wall coped with tiles. One ascends to the gateway, which is almost as large as that of a temple court, by a low broad flight of stone steps; and projecting from the wall, to the right of the gate, is a look-out window, heavily barred, like a big wooden cage. Thence, in feudal days, armed retainers kept keen watch on all who passed by—invisible watch, for the bars are set so closely that a face behind them cannot be seen from the roadway. -
