  • Retrieving the Past? a Consideration of Texts
    VIEWS AND REVIEWS Retrieving the Past? A Consideration of Texts Judith Snodgrass he consequences of Shaku SOen’s participation in the World’s Parlia­ ment of Religions in Chicago, 1893, are well known. His paper “ The Law ofT Cause and Effect as Taught by the Buddha” attracted the attention of Paul Cams and the subsequent friendship between Shaku SOen and Cams led di­ rectly to D. T. Suzuki’s presence in America and the introduction of Japanese MahSySna Buddhism to the West. Less well known is that Shaku SOen present­ ed a second paper, “ Arbitration Instead of W ar,” which has received little at­ tention beyond Robert Aitken’s attempts to reconcile its pacifist message with its author’s later involvement in Japan’s war against Russia.1 Aitken Rdshi’s paper, like most other studies of the Parliament, is based on the official record published by the Parliament’s chairman, the Reverend John Henry Barrows.2 The Parliament generated a profusion of literature,3 but Barrows’s account alone was to be considered authoritative. Each paper carried his copyright. The book, extensively edited and embellished with photographs—not artists’ impressions but captured instances of “ reality” —was to be the tme record of the event. It was the organizers* stated plan that it would become a source of reference and debate.4 It was to be a record for the next century to judge and 1 Robert Aitken, “Three Lessons from Shaku SOen,” in Fred Epstein and Dennis Maloney, eds., The Path o f Compassion: Contemporary Writings on Engaged Bud­ dhism , Buddhist Peace Press, Berkeley, 1985, pp.

  • Mascots: Performance and Fetishism in Sport Culture
    Platform , Vol. 3, No. 1 Mascots: Performance and Fetishism in Sport Culture Mary C. Daily (Boston College) Sport culture is something of great interest to citizens ranging from sociology scholars 1 to sports fans. The performance rituals that accompany sport include victory dances, school songs, cheers, and mascots. As Rick Minter, a mascot historian writes, “We all care about the symbols, nicknames, and legends of our club – mascots make them real again. They are a bit of our club that we can reach out and touch” (7). If we accept Minter’s conceptualization, what is the theoretical foundation that supports these representations? They make us laugh, we enjoy their athleticism, and kids love them; however, their lineage and purpose runs far deeper than their presence in the arena. This paper argues that mascot performances represent fetishized aspects of sport culture, and specifically, that such rituals embody the ability to relate to and influence the providence of a chosen athletic team. Arguably, the success of college and professional sport teams rests on their ability to claim triumph, and mascot performances are an integral part of that process to those who believe in their power. While sports fans enjoy mascots for their physicality as furry caricatures that dance along the sidelines, their significance is founded on a supernatural power relationship. The performance of mascots perpetuates their fetishized status in sports ranging from high school soccer to professional football. In the discussion of fetishization, one must be forgiving of possible oversimplifications present in the summarizing of various theorists, as the paper’s 1 James Frey and Günter Lüschen outline both collegiate and professional athletics, exploring competition, reception, and cultural significance.

  • TIMELINE of YALE FOOTBALL Updated As of February 2018
    TIMELINE OF YALE FOOTBALL Updated as of February 2018 Oct. 31, 1872 David Schley Schaff, Elliot S. Miller, Samuel Elder and other members of the class of 1873 call a meeting of the Yale student body. From it emerges the Yale Football Association, the first formal entity to govern the game at Yale. Schaff is elected president and team captain. Nov. 16, 1872 With faculty approval, Yale meets Columbia, the nearest football-playing college, at Hamilton Park in New Haven. The game is essentially soccer with 20-man sides, played on a field 400 by 250 feet. Yale wins 3-0, Tommy Sherman scoring the first goal and Lew Irwin the other two. Nov. 15, 1873 Yale and Princeton inaugurate what will become Yale’s longest rivalry. Princeton wins 3 goals to 0. Nov. 13, 1875 Yale and Harvard meet for the first time at Hamilton Park. The game is played under the so-called “concessionary rules”—15 players on a side and running with the ball permitted as in rugby, a round ball and only goals counting as in soccer. A crowd of 2,000 pays 50 cents a head—twice the normal price for a Yale game—to watch Harvard win 4-0. 1880 Walter Camp, in his third year as Yale’s delegate at the Intercollegiate Football Association rules convention, persuades the meeting to accept 11-man, rather than 15-man, sides. He also replaces rugby’s scrum with the scrimmage, which “takes place when the holder of the ball…puts it down on the ground in front of him and puts it in play by snapping it back with his foot.” Nov.

What has been less well documented is the intellectual background and influences that went into producing that performance, in particular the performance of the man who would eventually emerge as the delegation’s most historically prominent member, Shaku S ōen (1859-1919). This paper attempts to use S ōen as a case study to examine the intellectual and political milieu which Japanese Buddhism helped to inform, and was informed by, during the Meiji Era (1868-1912). It draws upon established research, as well as primary sources (including S ōen’s own Parliament addresses, writings, and journals) in order to support this examination.
