  • Excerpts from Hagakure (In the Shadow of Leaves): on Death
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) EXCERPTS FROM HAGAKURE (IN THE SHADOW OF LEAVES): ON DEATH ON LIVING IN THE MOMENT ON THE QUALITIES OF A GOOD RETAINER ON SPEAKING ON THE TEACHINGS OF YAMAMOTO JIN’ EMON Introduction After the unification of Japan in 1590 and the establishment of the Tokugawa Shōgunate in 1600, the samurai (warriors) remained at the top of the social scale but had fewer and fewer chances to prove their valor in battle. As opportunities to fight decreased, and samurai were employed in peacetime government positions, more attention was given to the values that defined their class. One of the most important was the loyalty samurai owed to the lord they served. In fact, the word samurai itself comes from a verb that means “to serve.” The lord or other high-ranking members of a clan often wrote out codes of behavior for the clan retainers. Among them, a work called Hagakure, or “hidden leaves,” has come to be seen as the one that best describes bushidō, “the way of the samurai.” It was written down in the early eighteenth century by a young samurai named Tashirō Tsuramoto (1678-1748), who was recording the wisdom he had learned over seven years of talks with an older, retired samurai of the Nabeshima clan named Yamamoto Tsunetomo (1659-1719). Yamamoto Tsunetomo’s ideas were expressed in conversations with his young disciple and so the resulting book is not a systematic code of rules. But some ideas are repeated often enough to be seen as essential to his thought.

  • 1) One Evening Jocho Talks to Tashiro Tsuramoto, with Deep Feeling. All
    1) One evening Jocho talks to Tashiro Tsuramoto, with deep feeling. All retainers of our clan should learn about our own clan. I feel quite sorry that most of them neglect to do so. It is most important to learn the history of the clan, because our domain has been preserved till today, thanks to our forefathers’ endeavor and com- passion. Thanks to the deep sympathy and bravery of Go-chu, the warm-heartedness and piety of Riso, and other great leaders like Takanobu and Naoshige, our clan has long continued in matchless strength. To my great regret, most folk in our clan hardly think of those pioneers, while they esteem the reputation of other clans. Neither Sakyamuni nor Confucius has ever served our clan. Kusunoki and Shingen have never done so, either. So they should not be made objects of our faith. In peace and in turbulence, we could survive by depending on our ancestors’ teachings alone. We do not have to learn anything about other clans. After having learned about Saga Clan, you might as well learn about other clans for pleasure or whatever. For a retainer of Saga Clan, it is enough to learn his lessons from the history of our own clan. When you are asked by members of other clans about the origin of the Ryuzoji or Nabeshima families, can you give them a satisfactory answer? You might be asked the reason why the land of the Ryuzoji family was taken over by the Nabeshima. Others might ask, “The Ryuzoji and Nabeshima families are known for their bravery in Kyu- shu but what kind of exploits have they performed?” Unless you know the history of our clan, you could not give them a suitable answer at all.

  • Meiji Restoration
    PHUNC VI A Timeline of Exploration The Meiji Restoration Letter from the Crisis Director Dear Delegates, My name is Jacob Glenister. I’m a sophomore studying Computer Science at Penn State, and as your crisis director I’d like to welcome you to The Meiji Restoration at PHUNC VI. I have loved history for nearly as long as I can remember, at the very least since I first played Rise of Nations when I was five. Ever since, I’ve done everything I can to study and understand history. In addition to all of the history books I’ve read and historical games I’ve played, I’ve been in Model UN for five and a half years now, including one and a half in PSIADA. This is my first time as a crisis director for a committee, but I have served behind the scenes in several committees in the past. As such, if you have any questions about Model UN in general or the way this committee will run in particular, don’t hesitate to ask me. I have been excited to run this committee since I started planning it this spring. I can’t wait to see what creative and interesting ideas you will have and what the future holds for Japan. Sincerely, Jacob Glenister [email protected] Presented by Center for Global Studies 1 Letter from the Chair Dear Delegates, My name is Erfan Shakibaei and I will be your chair for the Meiji Restoration Committee of PHUNC VI. I am a junior here at Penn State majoring in Finance.

  • From the Ancient Chronicles to the Tokugawa Period
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Journals of Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana DOI: 10.4312/as.2018.6.2.87-109 87 The Evolution of the Ancient Way of the Warrior: From the Ancient Chronicles to the Tokugawa Period Maria Paola CULEDDU*8 Abstract The term bushidō is widespread today and involves history, philosophy, literature, sociology and religion. It is commonly believed to be rooted in the ancient “way” of the bushi or samurai, the Japanese warriors who led the country until modern times. However, even in the past the bushi were seldom represented accurately. Mostly, they were depicted as the authors thought they should be, to fulfil a certain role in society and on the political scene. By taking into account some ancient and pre-modern writings, from the 8th to the 19th centuries, from the ancient chronicles of Japan, war tales, official laws, letters, to martial arts manuals and philosophical essays, and by highlighting some of the bushidō values, this article attempts to answer the questions how and why the representation of the bushi changed from the rise of the warrior class to the end of the military government in the 19th century. Keywords: bushidō, samurai, shogunate, Japanese literature, history of Japan, gunki mo- nogatari, legal codes, transformation. Razvoj starodavne poti bojevnika: od antičnih kronik do tokugavskega obdobja Izvleček Izraz bushidō je danes zelo razširjen in ga najdemo v zgodovini, filozofiji, literaturi, so- ciologiji in religiji.

  • Hashima: the Ghost Island, by Brian Burke Gaffney
    HASHIMA: THE CHOST ISLAND Brian Burke-Gaffney een from adistance ,Hashima Island might be mistaken for the ∞unte中 a 口 of Alcatr泣 rising from the ocean like a UJ ragged slab of concrete,or perhaps agambling r閥抗 with deserted hotels.F ew casual observers would ever guess that, only forty years ago,this tiny island was the site of athriving ∞mmunity with the highest population density on earth. One among 505 uninhabited islands in Nagasaki Prefecture, Hashima lies in the East China Sea some fifteen kilometers from Nagasaki,its naked crags striking astark contrast with the verdant peaks of nearby islands. A closer look reveals clusters of unpopulated high-rise buildings pressing up against aman-made sea wall,abattered shrine at the top of asteep rock cliff,and not asingle tree in sight. The clue to the island's mystery lies 凶 coal mining. Reached by long desc町 lding tunnels,coal beds below the bottom of the ocean near Hashima disgorged huge quantities of high-grade coal for almost a C 怠 ntury. But in 1974 the inhabitants abandoned the island to the wind and salt spray,leaving behind only unneeded belongings and afew stray cats that could not be captured. AnEnergy Chronology The history of Hashima Island reads like achronology of changes in Japan's energy policies from the Meiji Period to modern times. For centuries the people living on Takashima,alarge island near Hashima, are said to have collected ∞al 仕omexposed beds and used it as a household fuel. They called it goheita after the man by the same name who,according to local legend,stumbled on coal' scombustible properties by inadvertently lighting abonfue on the black rock.

  • Free Bushido: the Way of the Samurai Pdf
    FREE BUSHIDO: THE WAY OF THE SAMURAI PDF Tsunetomo Yamamoto,Minoru Tanaka,Justin F. Stone | 112 pages | 16 May 2002 | Square One Publishers | 9780757000263 | English | Garden City Park, NY, United States The Way of Bushido - Bushido Code, Dojo, Warrior Code Written during a time when there was no officially sanctioned samurai fighting, the book grapples with the dilemma of maintaining a warrior class in the absence of war and reflects the author's nostalgia for a world that had disappeared before he was born. Hagakure was largely forgotten for two centuries after its composition, but it came to be viewed as the definitive guide of the samurai during the Pacific War. The book records Tsunetomo's views on bushidothe warrior code of the samurai. Hagakure is sometimes said to assert that bushido is really the Bushido: The Way of the Samurai of Dying " or living as though one was already dead, and that a samurai must be willing to die at any moment in order to be true to his lord. His saying "the way of the warrior is death" was a summation of the willingness to sacrifice that bushido codified. After the Tokugawa shogunate suppressed the Shimabara Rebellion inJapan experienced no warfare for about two centuries. Private feuding and dueling between samurai was also suppressed. Yamamoto Tsunetomo was born inafter the end of officially sanctioned samurai fighting. He had no personal combat experience and when he was employed, he worked as a scribe. By the late s and early s, samurai faced the dilemma of maintaining a warrior class in the absence of war, and Hagakure reflects this uncertainty.
