Jozen Mizuno Gotoshi Junmai Ginjo Hiyaoroshi Namazume Shirataki Shuzo Japan - Nigata Prefecture - Echigo Yuzawa Hiyaoroshi is a general term referring to sake that has been pasteurized once in the winter and then allowed to mature over the summer before distribution in autumn. The Japan Sake Brewers Association designates September 9th as the official start for Hiyaoroshi sales. (Essentially aged Namazume) September 9th is known as Kiku-no-Sekku (“Chrysanthemum Festival”), where hundreds of chrysanthemums are displayed around various venues and chrysanthemum sake is served. The chrysanthemum (kiku) was brought to Japan from China during the Nara period. In 1183, it was adopted as the Imperial Seal of Japan, and during the Meiji period no one but the Emperor could use it. Nowadays it still represents the authority of the emperor and you can see it everywhere in Japan. Aromas are forward, fresh, and fruity in the nose with notes of sweet melon, cherries, and hints of vanilla. Flavors on the palate evoke feelings of the season with pumpkin pie, roasted nuts, and stewed plums. This sake is medium-bodied and accented by medium acidity, showing classic Jozen minerality and a lingering dry finish. Additional 7 months of aging adds depth and roundness. Specifications Type Junmai-shu Rice Milling 60 Rice Varietal Koshi Tanrei Sake Meter -0 Acidity 1.5 Pairings Roasted poultry, baked ham, butternut squash ravioli, BBQ, and dishes with sweet spice. />Aged Gouda, triple cream, fresh chevre.

Prior to Western influence, pre- modern Japanese society viewed imperial portraits as religious objects for private, commemorative use; only imperial family members and close supporters viewed these portraits. The Confucian notion of filial piety and the Buddhist tradition of tsuizen influenced the production of these commemorative or mortuary portraits. By the Meiji period, however, Western portrait practice had affected how Japan perceived its imperial portraiture. Because the Meiji government socially and politically constructed the ideal role of Emperor Meiji and used the portrait as a means of propaganda to elevate the emperor to the status of a divinity, it instituted controlled public viewing of the images of Japanese emperors.

Japan and Its East Asian Neighbors: Japan’S Perception of China and Korea and the Making of Foreign Policy from the Seventeenth to the Nineteenth Century
JAPAN AND ITS EAST ASIAN NEIGHBORS: JAPAN’S PERCEPTION OF CHINA AND KOREA AND THE MAKING OF FOREIGN POLICY FROM THE SEVENTEENTH TO THE NINETEENTH CENTURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Norihito Mizuno, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor James R. Bartholomew, Adviser Professor Philip C. Brown Adviser Professor Peter L. Hahn Graduate Program in History Copyright by Norihito Mizuno 2004 ABSTRACT This dissertation is a study of Japanese perceptions of its East Asian neighbors – China and Korea – and the making of foreign policy from the early seventeenth century to the late nineteenth century. Previous studies have overwhelmingly argued that after the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Japan started to modernize itself by learning from the West and changed its attitudes toward those neighboring countries. It supposedly abandoned its traditional friendship and reverence toward its neighbors and adopted aggressive and contemptuous attitudes. I have no intention of arguing here that the perspective of change and discontinuity in Japan’s attitudes toward its neighbors has no validity at all; Japan did adopt Western-style diplomacy toward its neighbors, paralleling the abandonment of traditional culture which had owed much to other East Asian civilizations since antiquity. In this dissertation, through examination primarily of official and private documents, I maintain that change and discontinuity cannot fully explain the Japanese policy toward its East Asian neighbors from the early seventeenth to the late nineteenth century. The Japanese perceptions and attitudes toward China and ii Korea had some aspects of continuity.

The history of Imperial Japan’s human experiments was one in which Ishii and Unit 731 was the principal actor, but Unit 731 operated in a much larger context. The network in which 731 operated consisted of Unit 731 and all its sub-units, nearly every major Japanese university, as well as many people in Japan’s scientific and medical community, military hospitals, military and civilian laboratories, and the Japanese military as a whole.

Fluorescent Chrysanthemum ICA Fox Reading Room 4 October – 27 November 2016
ICA Press release: 19 July 2016 Fluorescent Chrysanthemum ICA Fox Reading Room 4 October – 27 November 2016 Poster designed by Kohei Sugiura for Fluorescent Chrysanthemum, ICA, 1968 ‘A show of Japanese fluorescent sculptures, Japanese abstract cartoon films, graphics and kites is presented at the ICA Gallery in a superbly imaginative way. This is an aesthetic performance rather than an art show. I cannot think of a more exciting way to spend a morning or an afternoon in town.’ - What’s on in London, 13 December 1968 The ICA Fox Reading Room is pleased to present an exhibition highlighting the ICA’s rich heritage as a home for radical contemporary arts and culture. In 1968, the ICA exhibition Fluorescent Chrysanthemum, was the first presentation of experimental Japanese art, music, film and design in Europe – showcasing a group of artists never before seen in the UK, including: Kohei Sugiura, Jiro Takamatsu, Ushio Shinohara, Tadanori Yokoo, Seiichi Hayashi, Yoji Kuri, Tatsuo Shimamura. Fluorescent Chrysanthemum, originally curated by Jasia Reichardt, comprised of contemporary Japanese sculptures, miniatures, posters, graphics, kites, music with visual scores and films. The title referred to the fluorescent effects in many of the works, alongside reference to the Chrysanthemum flower as the Imperial Seal of Japan. The show was divided into sections: Miniatures, Graphics, Posters, Sculptures, Film and Music. Kohei Sugiura designed the exhibition graphics and the highly distinct installation of the show, working closely with Reichardt. The catalogue itself was also innovative, printed on a large folded single sheet in two versions (one black on white, the other white on black), both of which unfolded with the exhibition poster printed on the other side.

ABSTRACT Buddhism and Ideology in Japan, 1868-1931 by George Lazopoulos Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Andrew E. Barshay, Chair This dissertation is a critical history of Buddhist thought in Japan from 1868 to 1931. During this time, many intellectuals became fascinated with the Buddhism of Japan’s medieval period. Some saw it as a form of religious experience that could overcome the modern problem of alienated existence. Others declared that the cultural history of medieval Japanese Buddhism held the essence of Japanese cultural authenticity. These philosophical and historical interpretations of Buddhism together constituted a modern cultural discourse that I call Japanese Medievalism: a romantic vision of medieval Japan as a world of Buddhist spirituality. This dissertation traces the evolution of Japanese Medievalism, reconstructs its main arguments, and examines its ideological significance as a cultural artifact of modern Japan. Japanese Medievalism had an ambiguous ideological function.

Myth and Reality About Pre-World War II Government Records
Myth and Reality about Pre-World War II Government Records SHOHEI MUTA Senior Researcher, Japan Center for Asian Historical Records, National Archives of Japan INTRODUCTION The National Archives of Japan was established in 1971. Unlike the United States, Japan had no facilities until then that intensively preserve, manage and make available for public use documents and records of various governmental organs. On November 28, 1959, the Science Council of Japan under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister made a recommendation to Prime Minister Shinsuke Kishi requesting governmental action for preventing scattering and loss of official documents. It is true that a considerable number of important government records were lost due to war damage and “artificial destruction and extinction,” as the Science Council of Japan feared. 1 However, a survey for locating governmental documents conducted to realize the idea of the Japan Center for Asian Historical Records (JACAR) which provides digitized pre-war governmental records through the Internet, as well as our five-year experience since its establishment, found that contrary to expectation, pre-war government records had been systematically arranged and preserved in various national organs. The purpose of this paper is to suggest that the scattering and destruction of historically important official records, at least ones in the possession of pre-war governmental organs are concerned, is a myth. However, it is also the fact that pre-war government records were not fully used for historical studies.
