Nicknamed the ‘White Egret Castle’ for its spectacular white exterior and striking shape emerging from the plain. Himeji is a hill castle, that takes advantage of the surrounding geography to enhance its defensive qualities. There are three moats to obstruct the enemy and 15m sloping stone walls make approaching the base of the castle very difficult. Formal elements Viewed externally, there is a five-storey main tenshu (keep) and three smaller keeps, all surrounded by moats and defensive walls. These walls are punctuated with rectangular openings (‘sama’) for firing arrows and circular and triangular openings for guns. These ‘sama’ are at different heights to allow for the warrior to be standing, kneeling or lying down. The main keep’s walls also feature narrow openings that allowed defenders to pour boiling water or oil on to anyone trying to scale the walls.

  • Importance of the Inherited Memories of Great Tsunami Disasters in Natural Disaster Reduction
    Proceedings of the International Symposium on Engineering Lessons Learned from the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, March 1-4, 2012, Tokyo, Japan IMPORTANCE OF THE INHERITED MEMORIES OF GREAT TSUNAMI DISASTERS IN NATURAL DISASTER REDUCTION Akenori SHIBATA Professor Emeritus, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan, [email protected] ABSTRACT: The two gigantic tsunamis, the 869 Jogan tsunami and the 1611 Keicho tsunami, which had attacked the Sendai plain prior to the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake/ tsunami, are reflected. Pioneering works in the historical field by Mr. Y. Iinuma and in the scientific field by Prof. K. Minoura are introduced. To mitigate the damages by natural disaster, the knowledge on the past natural disasters occurred in an area should be properly shared by the people in that area. Necessity of the continued education on disaster reduction in schools and in regional societies is pointed out. Key Words: Great East Japan earthquake, Jogan tsunami, Keicho tsunami, disaster mitigation, disaster education INTRODUCTION The gigantic tsunami caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake gave enormous disaster to the wide coastal areas from Aomori Pref. to Ibaragi Pref. on the Pacific Ocean. The damages to Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima Pref. were especially large. The Sanriku ria coast areas in Iwate and in northern Miyagi have been exposed to frequent attack of large tsunamis and the people in those areas have been quite aware of tsunami disasters. On the other hand, the long flat coasts in southern Miyagi and in Fukushima had few experience of large tsunami in these several hundred years, by which reason very few people there had expected the attack of tsunami before the gigantic tsunami of 2011.

  • Himeji Castle 1601-09 1333-46, Then Rebuilt 1601-09, with Additional Fortifications 1617-19
    Himeji Castle 1601-09 1333-46, then rebuilt 1601-09, with additional fortifications 1617-19 Key Facts: • In a nutshell: practical defensive castle offering complex systems of defence in depth • Site: Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan • Size: 31m high, 140m long, 125m wide, on a 45m natural hill. • Materials: stone podium; clay, sand and rice glue walls; tiled roof • UNESCO World Cultural and Heritage Site. 1. ART HISTORICAL TERMS AND CONCEPTS The castle at Himeji is an iconic image of Japan and one of the finest examples of fortress architecture in the world. It stands at the centre of Himeji city, a strategic point along the route to the western provinces of Honshu (the main island of Japan). The castle was built atop a natural 45-meter hill called Himeyama, and its main donjon (tower) rises an additional 31 meters including a 15 metre stone foundation. It is a highly efficient and practical military machine offering complex systems of defence in depth. www.arthistoryinschools.org.uk © 2018 Art History in Schools CIO | Registered Charity No. 116451 arthistoryinschools @ahischarity @arthistoryinschools Cruickshank writes “..as with so much essentially functional Japanese architecture, the hill-top fortress possesses a delicacy of detail, fineness of form, and picturesqueness of profile that, from a distance, makes it look more like a fairy-tale palace.”1 From afar, the graceful rooflines of its white towers resemble a flock of herons in flight, suggesting the castle's proper name—"Egret Castle" (Shirasagi). The castle was first completed in 1346 but when the Shogun Togukawa rose to power in 1600 following the battle of Sekigahara, he rewarded his son-in-law Ikeda Terumasa (1564-1613) with the fiefdom of Harima (modern-day Hyogo prefecture) and the castle was completely rebuilt and enlarged between 1601 and 1609.
