  • HIRATA KOKUGAKU and the TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon
    SPIRITS AND IDENTITY IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY NORTHEASTERN JAPAN: HIRATA KOKUGAKU AND THE TSUGARU DISCIPLES by Gideon Fujiwara A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Asian Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2013 © Gideon Fujiwara, 2013 ABSTRACT While previous research on kokugaku , or nativism, has explained how intellectuals imagined the singular community of Japan, this study sheds light on how posthumous disciples of Hirata Atsutane based in Tsugaru juxtaposed two “countries”—their native Tsugaru and Imperial Japan—as they transitioned from early modern to modern society in the nineteenth century. This new perspective recognizes the multiplicity of community in “Japan,” which encompasses the domain, multiple levels of statehood, and “nation,” as uncovered in recent scholarship. My analysis accentuates the shared concerns of Atsutane and the Tsugaru nativists toward spirits and the spiritual realm, ethnographic studies of commoners, identification with the north, and religious thought and worship. I chronicle the formation of this scholarly community through their correspondence with the head academy in Edo (later Tokyo), and identify their autonomous character. Hirao Rosen conducted ethnography of Tsugaru and the “world” through visiting the northern island of Ezo in 1855, and observing Americans, Europeans, and Qing Chinese stationed there. I show how Rosen engaged in self-orientation and utilized Hirata nativist theory to locate Tsugaru within the spiritual landscape of Imperial Japan. Through poetry and prose, leader Tsuruya Ariyo identified Mount Iwaki as a sacred pillar of Tsugaru, and insisted one could experience “enjoyment” from this life and beyond death in the realm of spirits.

  • 2 Les Dragons De Natsukawa
    CONCOURS CREATION 2020 THEME : Le confinement EXPRESSION LITTERAIRE Catégorie Adulte (+19ans) 2ème Prix [email protected] UFE ABU DHABI www.ufeabudhabi.com FREDERIC DUMASLes dragons de NatsukawaLES DRAGONS DE NATSUKAWA La Victoire c’est tomber sept fois, se relever huit… Proverbe japonais FREDERIC DUMAS LES DRAGONS DE NATSUKAWA Tokyo 30ème jour du confinement… Ça y est ! Je ne suis plus seule. Je ne pensais pas que ma façon de vivre, ma philosophie, pourrait irradier le monde aussi vite. Bon apparemment j’y suis pour rien et c’était pas vraiment voulu… C’est un virus qui a tout déclenché… un coronavirus… un abominable avorton acaryote, tout droit sorti d’un sordide marché putride, mêlant des animaux improbables tels que chauves-souris, pangolins et rats- musqués. Et voilà ! Tout le monde se confine… Les gens ont peur… moi j’avais déjà peur avant… Il faut dire que j’ai peur de presque tout… des gens surtout… je suis ochlophobe… pour moi la foule ça commence à deux… les grands espaces ne me font peur que parce que quelqu’un peut surgir… Alors j’évite, j’esquive, j’avorte, j’annihile toute possibilité d’une relation physique avant même qu’elle n’ait eu une chance de germer dans le monde des possibles. Mon monde c’est ma chambre, mon univers c’est mon ordinateur, mes dieux sont Osamu Tezuka et Satoshi Nakamoto et mon meilleur ami le distributeur automatique de soda en bas de mon immeuble… Je m’appelle Natsukawa Fujiwara, j’habite dans le quartier Hakihabara à Tokyo, j’ai vingt-cinq ans et je suis une hikikomori… Aujourd’hui c’est le 30eme jour de confinement pour toute la population.
