Mack Horton Professor Daniel C. O’Neill Professor Anne-Lise François Summer 2018 © 2018 Matthew Stanhope Mewhinney All Rights Reserved Abstract The Lyric Forms of the Literati Mind: Yosa Buson, Ema Saikō, Masaoka Shiki and Natsume Sōseki by Matthew Stanhope Mewhinney Doctor of Philosophy in Japanese Language University of California, Berkeley Professor Alan Tansman, Chair This dissertation examines the transformation of lyric thinking in Japanese literati (bunjin) culture from the eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. I examine four poet- painters associated with the Japanese literati tradition in the Edo (1603-1867) and Meiji (1867- 1912) periods: Yosa Buson (1716-83), Ema Saikō (1787-1861), Masaoka Shiki (1867-1902) and Natsume Sōseki (1867-1916). Each artist fashions a lyric subjectivity constituted by the kinds of blending found in literati painting and poetry. I argue that each artist’s thoughts and feelings emerge in the tensions generated in the process of blending forms, genres, and the ideas (aesthetic, philosophical, social, cultural, and historical) that they carry with them.

  • Tokimeku: the Poetics of Marie Kondo's Konmari Method
    Flowers, Johnathan. “Tokimeku: The Poetics of Marie Kondo’s KonMari Method.” SPECTRA 7, no. 2 (2020): pp. 5–12. DOI: https://doi.org/10.21061/spectra.v7i2.146 ARTICLE Tokimeku: The Poetics of Marie Kondo’s KonMari Method Johnathan Flowers Worcester State University, US [email protected] Mono no aware is a poetic term developed by Motoori Norinaga to refer to the driving force behind aesthetic works, specifically poetry, and to refer to the human awareness of the qualitative nature of our experience in the world. For Norinaga, the cultivation of mono no aware necessarily leads to heightened sensitivity to both natural and man-made objects. As mono no aware is the natural response of the cultivated heart to the world around us, Norinaga takes it to be fundamental to human experience. Norinaga’s interpretation of the term aware as “to be stirred” bears striking similarities to the concept of “sparking joy” or tokimeku as used by Marie Kondo in her KonMari system. In Japanese, Kondo’s phrase “spark joy” is written as tokimeku, a word whose literal translation means “throb,” “pulsate,” or “beat fast,” as in the heart’s response to anticipation or anxiety. The aim of the present work is to make clear the connection between tokimeku in the KonMari system and Norinaga’s poetics of mono no aware. Specifically, this paper indicates the ways in which the KonMari system functions in line with a tradition of Japanese aesthetics of experience. This philosophy informs Japanese aesthetic practices and is articulated throughout Japanese poetics. This paper places Kondo in conversation with Norinaga’s work on aware and mono no aware towards a conceptualization of the KonMari system as an implement for cultivating a mindful heart.

  • Visual and Material Culture at Hōkyōji Imperial Convent: the Significance of “Women’S Art” in Early Modern Japan
    Visual and Material Culture at Hōkyōji Imperial Convent: The Significance of “Women’s Art” in Early Modern Japan by Sharon Mitsuko Yamamoto A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Gregory P. A. Levine, Chair Professor Patricia Berger Professor H. Mack Horton Fall 2010 Copyright by Sharon Mitsuko Yamamoto 2010. All rights reserved. Abstract Visual and Material Culture at Hōkyōji Imperial Convent: The Significance of “Women’s Art” in Early Modern Japan by Sharon Mitsuko Yamamoto Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art University of California, Berkeley Professor Gregory Levine, Chair This dissertation focuses on the visual and material culture of Hōkyōji Imperial Buddhist Convent (Hōkyōji ama monzeki jiin) during the Edo period (1600-1868). Situated in Kyoto and in operation since the mid-fourteenth century, Hōkyōji has been the home for women from the highest echelons of society—the nobility and military aristocracy—since its foundation. The objects associated with women in the rarefied position of princess-nun offer an invaluable look into the role of visual and material culture in the lives of elite women in early modern Japan. Art associated with nuns reflects aristocratic upbringing, religious devotion, and individual expression. As such, it defies easy classification: court, convent, sacred, secular, elite, and female are shown to be inadequate labels to identify art associated with women. This study examines visual and material culture through the intersecting factors that inspired, affected, and defined the lives of princess-nuns, broadening the understanding of the significance of art associated with women in Japanese art history.

  • Modifying the Hague Convention? US Military Occupation of Korea and Japanese Religious Property in Korea, 1945–1948
    Modifying the Hague Convention? US Military Occupation of Korea and Japanese Religious Property in Korea, 1945–1948 An Jong-Chol Acta Koreana, Volume 21, Number 1, June 2018, pp. 205-229 (Article) Published by Keimyung University, Academia Koreana For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/756456 [ Access provided at 27 Sep 2021 11:27 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 21, NO. 1, JUNE 2018: 205–229 doi:10.18399/acta.2018.21.1.008 © Academia Koreana, Keimyung University, 2018 MODIFYING THE HAGUE CONVENTION? US MILITARY OCCUPATION OF KOREA AND JAPANESE RELIGIOUS PROPERTY IN KOREA, 1945–1948 By AN JONG-CHOL After World War II, the United States established the US Army Government in Korea (USAMGIK, 1945–48) in South Korea, and tried to justify its military occupation by international law, particularly the Hague Convention IV (1907). The Convention stipulates an occupant’s right to take all the measures necessary to restore public order and safety and his or her duty to respect the indigenous law. Considering the changed situation during World War II, however, where the military institutions of the Axis Powers drove their aggression into other countries, it was inevitable that the Allied Powers would modify the convention to apply it to the occupied countries. Since Japanese public or private property comprised the most wealth in colonial Korea, one of the key issues that USAMGIK faced in liberated Korea was how to handle former Japanese property, ultimately culminating in the confiscation of all Japanese property into the possession of USAMGIK. Thus, this article expounds this thorny issue by dealing with the rationale of this change of the international law, specifically a religious one, with the cy pres (as near as possible) principle, a category that USAMGIK handled with discretion compared to commercial or government property.
