A lo largo del tiempo debido al imperialismo comercial de Europa sobre los países orientales hasta la globalización en las comunicaciones del siglo XXI, los elementos tradicionales de cada región, comenzaron a tener notoriedad fuera de su lugar de origen. En un comienzo los productos oriundos de Asia eran un lujo, en especial los textiles. De esta manera, artistas y diseñadores han utilizado estas influencias como inspiración para sus propias creaciones. En referencia a lo anterior, se define el orientalismo como una corriente de pensamiento y estilo Occidental que pretende dominar, reestructurar y tener autoridad sobre Oriente. En pocas palabras. El término Oriente es un concepto creado por el hombre Europeo. (Said, 1978, p.21). Continuando con los conceptos anteriores, la moda no fue una excepción. Un ejemplo de esto es el Kimono que en la actualidad se encuentra en el mercado. Tanto las prendas como las estampas Japonesas tradicionales fueron, sin duda, importadas. Debido a esto, lo que en occidente, en este caso Argentina, se conoce como algo de origen japonés, en general no fue traído por personas nativas de esa cultura y debido a esto, están de alguna manera ‘contaminadas’. Estos ‘importadores’ de cultura, solo traían parte de lo que se observaba allí o lo que consideraban que podría vender y gracias a eso, comenzó a crearse un imaginativo colectivo erróneo de cómo son las cosas en ese lugar, en este caso las prendas japonesas, haciendo un mix de culturas distintas. Como consecuencia de esto, se generó la imposibilidad en los occidentales de distinguir entre culturas y categorizar todo de una misma manera: Ropa China. En los marcos de las observaciones anteriores el fin del presente Proyecto de Graduación titulado Modern Kirumono. Resignificación del tradicionalismo japonés en la moda Argentina, es revalorizar esos elementos de la ropa tradicional japonesa y de qué manera no caer en esos estereotipos que se tiene del país del sol naciente. 3 La pregunta principal de este Proyecto de Grado, cuya categoría es creación y expresión y su línea temática se enmarca en la de Diseño y Producción de objetos, espacios e imágenes, es ¿Cómo tomar elementos de la indumentaria tradicional japonesa para resignificarlos en la Argentina? Y el objetivo general que forma parte de la respuesta a esa pregunta es diseñar una colección cápsula urbana contemporánea con influencias de la indumentaria tradicional japonesa reformulando la moldería y la estampa para el mercado Argentino. A su vez para poder responder esta pregunta y realizar el objetivo general, es necesario resolver los objetivos específicos del Proyecto de Graduación. En primer lugar se debe Identificar los elementos claves de la moldería y estampa japonesas para reformularlas. Este objetivo es clave ya que sin él se podría caer en lo que se plantea anteriormente: examinar y evaluar cómo modificar el imaginativo colectivo erróneo de Japón establecido por la influencia de los elementos importados, el anime y el sarariman.

  • Shigisan Engi Shigisan Engi Overview
    Shigisan engi Shigisan engi Overview I. The Shigisan engi or Legends of the Temple on Mount Shigi consists of three handscrolls. Scroll 1 is commonly called “The Flying Granary,” Scroll 2 “The Exorcism of the Engi Emperor,” and Scroll 3 “The Story of the Nun.” These scrolls are a pictorial presentation of three legends handed down among the common people. These legends appear under the title “Shinano no kuni no hijiri no koto” (The Sage of Shinano Province) in both the Uji sh¯ui monogatari (Tales from Uji) and the Umezawa version of the Kohon setsuwash¯u (Collection of Ancient Legends). Since these two versions of the legends are quite similar, one is assumed to be based on the other. The Kohon setsuwash¯u ver- sion is written largely in kana, the phonetic script, with few Chinese characters and is very close to the text of the Shigisan engi handscrolls. Thus, it seems likely that there is a deep connection between the Shigisan engi and the Kohon setsuwash¯u; one was probably the basis for the other. “The Flying Granary,” Scroll 1 of the Shigisan engi, lacks the textual portion, which has probably been lost. As that suggests, the Shigisan engi have not come down to us in their original form. The Shigisan Ch¯ogosonshiji Temple owns the Shigisan engi, and the lid of the box in which the scrolls were stored lists two other documents, the Taishigun no maki (Army of Prince Sh¯otoku-taishi) and notes to that scroll, in addition to the titles of the three scrolls.

  • Japanese Costume
    JAPANESE COSTUME BY HELEN C. GUNSAULUS Assistant Curator of Japanese Ethnology FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CHICAGO 1923 Field Museum of Natural History DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY Chicago, 1923 Leaflet Number 12 Japanese Costume Though European influence is strongly marked in many of the costumes seen today in the larger sea- coast cities of Japan, there is fortunately little change to be noted in the dress of the people of the interior, even the old court costumes are worn at a few formal functions and ceremonies in the palace. From the careful scrutinizing of certain prints, particularly those known as surimono, a good idea may be gained of the appearance of all classes of people prior to the in- troduction of foreign civilization. A special selection of these prints (Series II), chosen with this idea in mind, may be viewed each year in Field Museum in Gunsaulus Hall (Room 30, Second Floor) from April 1st to July 1st at which time it is succeeded by another selection. Since surimono were cards of greeting exchanged by the more highly educated classes of Japan, many times the figures portrayed are those known through the history and literature of the country, and as such they show forth the costumes worn by historical char- acters whose lives date back several centuries. Scenes from daily life during the years between 1760 and 1860, that period just preceding the opening up of the coun- try when surimono had their vogue, also decorate these cards and thus depict the garments worn by the great middle class and the military ( samurai ) class, the ma- jority of whose descendents still cling to the national costume.

We have a new group of users. They must have intriguing stories to tell…” -Igor, to a new party. Creating a character in Persona may seem daunting at first, especially if this is your first tabletop role-playing game. The sheer complexity of the rules can turn off newcomers to the genre. The jargon may seem incomprehensible and downright inane. That sentiment is totally understandable – tabletop is not for everyone. While a game like Persona is innately complex and due to a complex system, every effort will be made to make sure that character creation is made as simple as possible, and easy enough for anyone to pick up. Why? To give the prospective players, both old and new, an ease of access to the system, without being threatened with jargon and vague bullshit. To begin, let’s outline what Persona: the RPG is.

  • SAMURAI Samurai Is a Word for a Japanese Warrior Class and for A
    SAMURAI Samurai is a word for a Japanese warrior class and for a member of this class. The Japanese Way of the Warrior, has played a major role in shaping the behaviour of modern Japanese government, corporation, society, and individuals, as well as in shaping the modern martial arts within Japan and internationally. Samurai have been glorified in numerous films, books, comic series, TV shows and theatre plays. They are a source of fascination for adults and children all over the world. No figure is more emblematic of Japan and the Japanese than the samurai, the heroic warriors who lived by the code of bushido - the way of the samurai - founded upon loyalty, justice and honour. The warrior tradition in Japan is as ancient as the country itself, but the true samurai emerged during the late Heian period (mid 12th century) (when two powerful Japanese clans fought bitter wars against each other - the Taira and the Minamato) and thereafter ruled Japan for some 800 years. During this time, the classic Japanese martial arts evolved, and with them the bushido code. At that time the Japanese shogunate, a system of a military ruler, called the shogun was formed. Under the shogun the next hierarchy were the daimyo, local rulers comparable to dukes in Europe. The samurai were the military retainers of a daimyo. And finally you may have heard of ronin. Ronin are samurai without a master. According to historians the fierce fights between hostile clans and warlords was mainly a battle for land. Samurai Attributes and Privileges Samurai had several far-reaching privileges.
