Neve Di Sangue - La Vendetta Di Shurayuki Hime Analisi Dei Film, Del Manga E Delle Tematiche Principali Corso di Laurea magistrale in Lingue e Civiltà dell’Asia e dell’Africa Mediterranea Tesi di Laurea Neve di sangue - La vendetta di Shurayuki hime Analisi dei film, del manga e delle tematiche principali Relatore Chiar.ma Prof.ssa Maria Novielli Correlatore Chiar.mo Prof. Davide Giurlando Laureando Martina Malasomma Matricola 822676 Anno Accademico 2015/2016 要旨 映画では、西部劇やSF映画と違って、復讐というテーマは決して独立したジャンル とならないことである。しかし、多くの映画で復讐が広く描かれたテーマ、話の主な焦点 になっているようである。日本では古くから、復讐の話や事件等は様々な物語と伝説の元 にあり、それらと同じ物語は数多くの映画の製作に影響を与えてきた。事例としては、江 戸時代に起こった『赤穂浪士』という事件に基づいた牧野 省三の『実録忠臣蔵』や溝口 健二の『元禄忠臣蔵』という映画等が挙げられる。特に、架空の物語の範囲では、藤田 敏八の『修羅雪姫』という映画は日本の女性復讐劇の象徴ともなっている。本作は小池一 夫と上村一夫の同名の漫画作品から発想を得ており、明治時代の後期に設定し、家族の暗 殺者に復讐した女についての物語である。 2014年、「J ポップ」というイタリアの出版社から漫画のイタリア語版が初めて 出版されたのをきっかけに、映画『修羅雪姫』はこの論文の主題となった。この論文の各 章においては、映画『修羅雪姫』の主要な主題を分析すると共に、歴史的及び文化的の背 景についても論じている。本論文は5章からなっている。 第1章では、日本によく関連付けられる復讐、特に復讐の定義を付けることをテーマ に展開する。また、その話題に関して、儒教で根源に溯る敵討ちの歴史を紹介する。最後 に、日本の映画はその起源以来劇場と直接関係があるので、復讐に関する6つの有名な歌 舞伎の演劇を叙述する。 第2章では、「反英雄」すなわち「アンチヒーロー」の姿について取り扱う。なぜな ら、英雄の伝統的な定義とは非常に異なり、鹿島 雪という名の『修羅雪姫』の主人公は 恨みが心に充満した冷酷な暗殺者となった者だからである。また、宮本 武蔵、丹下 左膳 や座頭市といった先駆者の例を通じて、映画によるアンチヒーローの誕生が大衆文学に与 えた重要な役割を明らかにすると共に、最後にヤクザ映画の歴史も簡単に紹介する。 第3章は、1972年に出版された『修羅雪姫』という漫画を扱う。本作は1960 年代に日本で生まれた劇画というジャンルに所属しており、全く下品になることなく、暴 力と性愛のイメージが広く描かれている。したがって、劇画の歴史を記述し、主人公の本 質を構成した「毒婦」と「クノ一」という人物のカテゴリ、漫画のエロコンポネントと歴 史的正確さの重要性を強調している。 最後に、手短に『修羅雪姫』の続編が紹介されて いる。 第4の章では、『修羅雪姫』の2本の映画に焦点を当てる。特に、両方の映画を全て 詳細に分析し、あらすじを紹介する。また、それだけではなく主人公の示唆的特徴を記述 し、映画と漫画を比較することを論述する。さらに、監督によって行われた様式と撮影技 法選択に関するいくつかの考察を述べることもある。核心の前置きとして、第2章の男性 反英雄が紹介されたキャラクターの後で、女武芸者の起源、ピンキー・バイオレンス映画 を始め、この章は女性反英雄も分析する。 最後の章では、『修羅雪姫』の他の作品への影響を論じる。本作と同じ時期の漫画を 始め、同時代の西洋の映画、2000年代の日本の映画と外国の映画も紹介する。この章 の目的はこれらの例を通じて議論の材料を与えることである。 全ての面で『修羅雪姫』を分析するためには、本論文の5つの章における主要な主題 の分析、それらの歴史的、社会的、文化的な文脈の紹介は不可欠なものである。なぜなら、 芸術一般においてそうであるように、映画は単に事柄を語るものだけでなく、歴史的、文 化的な発展と共に進化する社会の変化を反映した鏡だからである。また、映画は基本的な 人間の価値観に関する監督の意見や気持ちを表す手段とも言えたそうだからである。その 上、『修羅雪姫』を通じて、復讐意識のような非常に否定的で倫理的に問題のある感情が、 いかにして勇気、決意、忠誠心、そして自己犠牲の精神といった、より深い倫理的価値を 訴えているかということを日本人以外の観客も理解できている。そして、それによって、 心理学的深さと劇的な強烈さが物語に加わっている。これが「芸術の力」と呼ばれるもの だろう。 INDICE AVVERTENZA ....................................................................................................................................... 7 BISOGNO DI VENDETTA ............................................................................................................... 8 1.1 INTRODUZIONE ................................................................................................................................. 8 1.2 STORIA DELLA VENDETTA IN GIAPPONE ............................................................................... 13 1.3 LA VENDETTA NEL TEATRO GIAPPONESE ............................................................................... 37 1.3.1 Soga monogatari: la vendetta dei fratelli Soga ........................................................................ 37 1.3.2 Cūshingura: la vendetta dei quarantasette rōnin ..................................................................... 41 1.3.3 Igagoe dōchū sugoroku .............................................................................................................. 45 1.3.4 Go taiheiki shiroishi banashi ..................................................................................................... 46 1.3.5 Katakiuchi Tengajayamura ........................................................................................................ 47 1.3.6 Kagamiyama kokyō no nishikie ................................................................................................ 48 ANTIEROI, I CATTIVI DAL CUORE D'ORO .................................................................. 50 2.1 LA FIGURA DELL'ANTIEROE ........................................................................................................ 50 2.2 GENESI DELL'ANTIEROE GIAPPONESE ..................................................................................... 56 2.2.1 Taishū bungaku ........................................................................................................................... 56 2.2.2 Cinema yakuza ............................................................................................................................ 61 2.2.2.1 Lo yakuza, tra cinema e realtà .................................................................................................. 82 SHURAYUKI HIME -

La vendetta è parte della condizione umana e si può dire che essa, nei suoi molteplici aspetti, abbia attraversato tutta la storia dell’umanità, al punto che ancora oggi la rinveniamo perfino nelle dichiarazioni di alcuni capi di Stato. 2 All’origine di quelle determinate reazioni - che definiamo "vendette" - a fronte di atti di aggressione vi è, indubbiamente, il nostro istinto aggressivo, come afferma Konrad Lorenz. Tuttavia, lo stesso Lorenz sostiene che l’istinto aggressivo non è necessariamente istinto di morte, ma può consistere anche in un desiderio di infliggere una punizione all’autore dell’atto aggressivo. 3 Lorenz, pertanto, sembra affermare che se alla base della vendetta c’è l’istinto, la vendetta non si esaurisce necessariamente in una reazione meramente istintiva ma, anzi, essa si dota di proprie "forme" e "regole" che mutano nel corso del

Während Ge- machtheit im Sinne von Stilisierung, Hypermedialität und parodischer Intertex- tualität zunehmend Aufmerksamkeit findet, sind die Beharrlichkeit des Hand- werks, die Rolle der Handzeichnung und die Vorliebe für ein analoges Erscheinungsbild bislang kaum hinsichtlich ihrer medienästhetischen Konse- quenzen diskutiert worden.

  • Le Manga Est-Il Nécessairement Lié À Un Contexte De Production ?1
    Alternative Francophone vol.1, 10(2016): 39-66 http://ejournals.library.ualberta.ca/index.php/af Le manga est-il nécessairement lié à un contexte de production ?1 Laurent Pendarias ED 487- École doctorale de Philosophie, Université Jean Moulin Lyon 3, EA 4187-IrPhil Adrien Pendarias Chercheur indépendant Les dessins animés japonais, ou « japanimé », sont des produits de divertissement, pensés en fonction de la demande d’un public cible (tranche d’âge, genre du consommateur) et qui ont pu s’exporter aisément. L’exploitation par l’émission Club Dorothée (produite par AB Productions de 1987 à 1997), la réappropriation des codes graphiques pour des dessins animés français (Martin Mystère, Totally Spies) et enfin l’emploi de dessinateurs français par les studios japonais d’animation (Cédric Hérole) témoignent d’une réception favorable du public français pour des produits japonais, mais également de la capacité des Français à s’approprier un produit pour le revendre. Les commerciaux — producteurs, chargés d’édition, vendeurs — et les créatifs — dessinateurs, scénaristes — peuvent reprendre à leur compte des innovations étrangères, malgré les différences culturelles, pour les adapter au marché. La France est le deuxième pays consommateur de mangas, soit « le premier marché du manga à l’exportation. Mais bien qu’il s’en soit vendu, à son apogée en 2008, plus de 15 millions de volumes pour quelque 160 millions d’euros, les profits sont infimes pour les éditeurs nippons. Ces 160 millions représentent moins de 4 % de leur chiffre d’affaires au Japon » (Bouissou 147). La France représente un marché plus intéressant que les pays asiatiques,2 qu’on pourrait supposer proches culturellement, ou que le Brésil, 1 Les auteurs remercient les mangakas francophones qui ont accepté de participer à cette étude : Deruyck Vincent « Ancestral-Z », Guillaume Dorison « Izu » et « Aerinn ».

  • Kouno Fumiyo's Hiroshima Manga
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Ateneo de Manila University: Journals Online Takeuchi / Kouno Fumiyo’s Hiroshima Manga 243 KOUNO FUMIYO’S HIROSHIMA MANGA: A Style-Centered Attempt at Re-Reading Takeuchi Miho Graduate School of Manga, Kyoto Seika University [email protected] Abstract Kouno Fumiyo’s graphic narratives about Hiroshima, beginning with Yūnagi no machi, sakura no kuni (Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms, 2004), have drawn attention as a new kind of A-bomb manga, but they have also met with harsh criticism by historians who privilege story and representational content when approaching manga. Against their charge of a lack of criticality, this review article highlights the critical potential of Kouno’s graphic narratives by focusing on how comics-specific style, especially paneling and linework, affects both narrative content and the act of reading. Kouno’s works exhibit a number of pecularities, ranging from what is drawn inside individual panels to the materiality of the line work marked, among other things, by the motif of the hand. The article demonstrates how these stylistic contrivances prompt not only re-reading, or revisiting both specific manga images and the represented past, but that they also allow for ‘touching’ the past. With respect to the latter, the article maintains, that Kouno’s manga promote a bodily kind of historical memory that implies an alternative to the exclusive concentration on thematic representation and ideological content. With respect to manga, the article emphasizes that critical potential arises to a significant extent from specific acts of reading facilitated by specific stylistic means.

  • Conjoined by Hand: Aesthetic Materiality in Kouno Fumiyo's
    Conjoined by Hand: Aesthetic Materiality in Kouno Fumiyo’s Manga In This Corner of the World Jaqueline Berndt Mechademia, Volume 12, Number 2, Spring 2020, pp. 83-101 (Article) Published by University of Minnesota Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/761079 [ Access provided at 7 Aug 2020 11:37 GMT from Stockholms universitet ] Conjoined by Hand Aesthetic Materiality in Kouno Fumiyo’s Manga In This Corner of the World JAQUELINE BERNDT In recent years, content- driven, or representational, readings of anime and manga have been increasingly countered by mediatic approaches, but the main focus has been mainly on the materiality of platforms and institutions rather than that of signifiers and artifacts that afford certain mediations in the first place. Kouno Fumiyo’s In This Corner of the World (Kono sekai no kata- sumi ni) provides an excellent case to explore manga’s aesthetic materiality, last but not least because of its congenial adaptation to the animated movie of the same name directed by Katabuchi Sunao (Studio MAPPA, 2016).1 This movie attests to what John Guillory has pointed out in a different context, namely, that “[r]emediation makes the medium as such visible.”2 Conse- quently, it is used below as a foil to highlight how Kouno’s manga conjoins different materialities in a medium- specific way resting on the drawn line, print on paper, and the serial format of the narrative. This article pursues manga mediality from the angle of materiality to ap- proach forms as aesthetic affordances without reiterating a decontextualized formalism modeled on modernist notions of authorship and autonomous art.

  • Japan-Russia Relations, the Kuril Islands Dispute and the Revival of Suzuki Muneo
    Japan-Russia Relations, The Kuril Islands Dispute and the Revival of Suzuki Muneo By James Brown Region: Asia, Russia and FSU Global Research, September 16, 2019 Theme: History The Asia-Pacific Journal: Japan Focus 15 September 2019 At the start of the 2000s, Suzuki Muneo was one of the most prominent politicians in Japan. Elected to the House of Representatives for the first time in 1983, Suzuki eventually served eight terms. He became a powerful figure in the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and was appointed head of the Hokkaidō and Okinawa Development agencies in 1997. He also became deputy chief cabinet secretary in the government of Obuchi Keizō in 1998. However, while these are senior positions, Suzuki’s real power was unofficial. Exercising extraordinary influence over the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) that often exceeded that of the foreign minister, Suzuki established himself as a key figure in Japanese foreign policy, especially with regard to Russia. Above all, in advance of the Irkutsk summit between President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Mori Yoshirō in March 2001, Suzuki, in close cooperation with certain Japanese diplomats, pioneered what they regarded as a more realistic means of resolving the longstanding dispute over the Russian-held Southern Kuril Islands, which are claimed by Japan as the Northern Territories. Suzuki’s strategy entailed discontinuing Japan’s hitherto insistence on Russia’s simultaneous recognition of Japanese sovereignty over all four of the disputed islands.1 Instead, Suzuki promoted a phased approach that would see the transfer of the two smaller islands of Shikotan and Habomai, followed by continued negotiations over the status of the larger islands of Iturup and Kunashir, which are known as Etorofu and Kunashiri in Japanese.
