Illustration and the Visual Imagination in Modern Japanese Literature By
Eyes of the Heart: Illustration and the Visual Imagination in Modern Japanese Literature By Pedro Thiago Ramos Bassoe A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy in Japanese Literature in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Daniel O’Neill, Chair Professor Alan Tansman Professor Beate Fricke Summer 2018 © 2018 Pedro Thiago Ramos Bassoe All Rights Reserved Abstract Eyes of the Heart: Illustration and the Visual Imagination in Modern Japanese Literature by Pedro Thiago Ramos Bassoe Doctor of Philosophy in Japanese Literature University of California, Berkeley Professor Daniel O’Neill, Chair My dissertation investigates the role of images in shaping literary production in Japan from the 1880’s to the 1930’s as writers negotiated shifting relationships of text and image in the literary and visual arts. Throughout the Edo period (1603-1868), works of fiction were liberally illustrated with woodblock printed images, which, especially towards the mid-19th century, had become an essential component of most popular literature in Japan. With the opening of Japan’s borders in the Meiji period (1868-1912), writers who had grown up reading illustrated fiction were exposed to foreign works of literature that largely eschewed the use of illustration as a medium for storytelling, in turn leading them to reevaluate the role of image in their own literary tradition. As authors endeavored to produce a purely text-based form of fiction, modeled in part on the European novel, they began to reject the inclusion of images in their own work. -

Of Mice and Maidens: Ideologies of Interspecies Romance in Late Medieval and Early Modern Japan Abstract Interspecies marriage (irui kon'in) has long been a central theme in Japanese literature and folklore. Frequently dismissed as fairytales, stories of interspecies marriage illuminate contemporaneous conceptions of the animal-human boundary and the anxieties surrounding it. This dissertation contributes to the emerging field of animal studies yb examining otogizoshi (Muromachi/early Edo illustrated narrative fiction) concerning elationshipsr between human women and male mice. The earliest of these is Nezumi no soshi ("The Tale of the Mouse"), a fifteenth century ko-e ("small scroll") attributed to court painter Tosa Mitsunobu. Nezumi no soshi was followed roughly a century later by a group of tales collectively named after their protagonist, the mouse Gon no Kami. Unlike Nezumi no soshi, which focuses on the grief of the woman who has unwittingly married a mouse, the Gon no Kami tales contain pronounced comic elements and devote attention to the mouse-groom's perspective. -

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. Đối mặt với thần, đồng nghĩa với việc Tsubaki phải đối mặt với chính mình của quá khứ… Đối măt với sự thật rằng mình không có quyền được nhận sự tha thứ, nhưng mình vẫn phải dành lấy chiến thắng, dành lấy niềm tin lẫn sự hy vọng. _ Tsubaki Minamiya… cận vệ của cháu gái ta đấy sao? Lâu rồi không gặp nhỉ, nhãi ranh! _ Đúng là một cuộc gặp gỡ chẳng ra làm sao, xin lỗi vì đã bỏ trốn trong khoảng thời gian lâu như thế. Ba năm trôi qua ngươi cũng biết cách trang điểm quá chứ nhỉ.
