    University of Nevada, Reno American Shinto Community of Practice

    University of Nevada, Reno American Shinto Community of Practice: Community formation outside original context A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Craig E. Rodrigue Jr. Dr. Erin E. Stiles/Thesis Advisor May, 2017 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by CRAIG E. RODRIGUE JR. Entitled American Shinto Community Of Practice: Community Formation Outside Original Context be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Erin E. Stiles, Advisor Jenanne K. Ferguson, Committee Member Meredith Oda, Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School May, 2017 i Abstract Shinto is a native Japanese religion with a history that goes back thousands of years. Because of its close ties to Japanese culture, and Shinto’s strong emphasis on place in its practice, it does not seem to be the kind of religion that would migrate to other areas of the world and convert new practitioners. However, not only are there examples of Shinto being practiced outside of Japan, the people doing the practice are not always of Japanese heritage. The Tsubaki Grand Shrine of America is one of the only fully functional Shinto shrines in the United States and is run by the first non-Japanese Shinto priest. This thesis looks at the community of practice that surrounds this American shrine and examines how membership is negotiated through action. There are three main practices that form the larger community: language use, rituals, and Aikido. Through participation in these activities members engage with an American Shinto community of practice.

  • The Concept of the Five Famous Wares of the Song Dynasty —A Modern Invention

    The Concept of the Five Famous Wares of the Song Dynasty —A Modern Invention

    The Concept of the Five Famous Wares of the Song Dynasty —A Modern Invention Sabrina Rastelli Department of Asian and North African Studies, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Venice, Italy Abstract The concept of the five famous wares of the Song dynasty is a fundamental theory that has influenced both researching and learning about Chinese ceramics. Archaeological excavations carried out since the 1950s and particularly during the past two decades have provided modern scholars with many and precious pieces of information that have deeply changed our understanding of the history of Chinese ceramics. They have also undermined the concept itself, but when discussing Ding, Ru, Jun, Guan or Ge experts seldom resist the temptation to remind that it is one of the five famous wares. The aim of this paper is to trace back when and how this definition was coined, by combing through Chinese sources. Key words five famous wares China ceramics ceramic literature Song The concept of the five famous wares of the Song dynasty (Songdai Wuda Mingyao 宋代五大名窑 ) is a fundamental theory that has influenced both researching and learning about Chinese ceramics. At the end of the 1980s, Song wares were classified as either official or popular. The first category was constituted by the so-called five famous wares of the Song dynasty, namely Ding（定）, Ru（汝）, Jun（钧）, Guan（官）and Ge（哥）. Ten years later, while researching for my PhD thesis, I began to doubt the exactness of this theory, but I explored the problem only from the perspective of the Yaozhou ( 耀州 ) kilns (Rastelli, 2008).

    39 Ching-Ling Wang* R E JA P RE-CONSIDERING A CIZHOU-TYPE JAR IN THE VVAK COLLECTION U-TY Introduction O Within the collection of the VVAK, on long term loan to the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, is a Cizhou-type (Cizhouyao xi) stoneware jar (AK-MAK-536, fig. 1). This jar has a short tapered neck, a wide mouth, and four small loops between the neck and the shoulder which would originally have been used to IZH secure a lid; from the square shoulder the sides narrow towards the foot. C The inner neck and the body are covered with a crackled glaze and slip to around three centimeters above the base. On the surface of the glaze are cloudy patches of slip that turned pink or brownish-beige during firing. A The slip has been worn away around the base. One side is decorated with G a painting of a galloping horse, shown running through grassland – as suggested by spare brush strokes. The horse is painted in shades of iron IN brown beneath the glaze. It has a dark brown body, a yellowish-brown mane, R and a tail painted with fluid brushstrokes. On the other side, in the same E palette, is an as yet unidentified plant (fig. 2). The base of the jar is plain biscuit (fig. 3). D I first encountered this jar in September 2013 during an interview for my job as curator of Chinese art in the Rijksmuseum. I remember that this jar was NSI placed in front of me and I was asked several questions about it.
