ABSTRACT Science and technology have been paramount features of any modernized nation. In Japan they played an important role in the modernization and militarization of the nation, as well as its democratization and subsequent economic growth. Science and technology highlight the promises of a better tomorrow and future utopia, but their application can also present ethical issues. In fiction, they have historically played a significant role. Fictions of science continue to exert power via important multimedia platforms for considerations of the role of science and technology in our world. And, because of their importance for the development, ideologies and policies of any nation, these considerations can be correlated with the deliberation of the role of a nation in the world, including its internal and external images and imaginings.

  • Noh Theater and Religion in Medieval Japan
    Copyright 2016 Dunja Jelesijevic RITUALS OF THE ENCHANTED WORLD: NOH THEATER AND RELIGION IN MEDIEVAL JAPAN BY DUNJA JELESIJEVIC DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in East Asian Languages and Cultures in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Elizabeth Oyler, Chair Associate Professor Brian Ruppert, Director of Research Associate Professor Alexander Mayer Professor Emeritus Ronald Toby Abstract This study explores of the religious underpinnings of medieval Noh theater and its operating as a form of ritual. As a multifaceted performance art and genre of literature, Noh is understood as having rich and diverse religious influences, but is often studied as a predominantly artistic and literary form that moved away from its religious/ritual origin. This study aims to recapture some of the Noh’s religious aura and reclaim its religious efficacy, by exploring the ways in which the art and performance of Noh contributed to broader religious contexts of medieval Japan. Chapter One, the Introduction, provides the background necessary to establish the context for analyzing a selection of Noh plays which serve as case studies of Noh’s religious and ritual functioning. Historical and cultural context of Noh for this study is set up as a medieval Japanese world view, which is an enchanted world with blurred boundaries between the visible and invisible world, human and non-human, sentient and non-sentient, enlightened and conditioned. The introduction traces the religious and ritual origins of Noh theater, and establishes the characteristics of the genre that make it possible for Noh to be offered up as an alternative to the mainstream ritual, and proposes an analysis of this ritual through dynamic and evolving schemes of ritualization and mythmaking, rather than ritual as a superimposed structure.

  • Anime and Historical Inversion in Miyazaki Hayao's Princess
    Anime and Historical Inversion in Miyazaki Hayao’s Princess Mononoke John A. Tucker East Carolina University Introduction If box office receipts are any indication of cultural significance, then Miyazaki Hayao’s Princess Mononoke (Mononokehime, 1997) surely stands as one of the most important works of late-twentieth-century Japanese popular culture: currently it remains the highest-grossing (¥16.65 billion, approximately $150 million) domestic film in Japanese history. Prior to the release of The Titanic, Princess Mononoke eclipsed E.T. and reigned as the biggest box-office hit ever, domestic or foreign, in Japan. While The Titanic has since surpassed Princess Mononoke in overall ticket sales, over 13.53 million Japanese, or more than one-tenth of the population, have watched Princess Mononoke in theatres, and over five million copies of the video have been sold domestically (Yoneda, 204). Princess Mononoke also stands as the most expensive animated movie ever made in Japan, with a 3 billion yen (approximately $30 million) production cost (Wakita et al., 168). Critics have lauded it in literally hundreds of media reviews, especially in Japanese film and popular culture publications such as Kinema junpō, SAPIO, Nyūmedeia, AERA, uirumumeekaazu, Bessatsu Comicbox, Bessatsu Takarajima, Tech Win, Shunkan Kinyōbi, Video Doo!, Yurika, Cinema Talk, and SPA!, as well as in the major newspapers, periodicals, and regional media. Additionally, Princess Mononoke has been awarded numerous prizes, most notably the 21st Japan Academy Award for Best Film (Kuji, 3-4; Schilling, 3). Not surprisingly the film has been released internationally, with an English language version, featuring numerous familiar American voices, including that of Gillian Anderson and Billy Bob Thornton, thus making it exceptionally accessible in the United States for anime fans, and those interested in Japanese history and culture.

  • Alternative Titles Index
    VHD Index - 02 9/29/04 4:43 PM Page 715 Alternative Titles Index While it's true that we couldn't include every Asian cult flick in this slim little vol- ume—heck, there's dozens being dug out of vaults and slapped onto video as you read this—the one you're looking for just might be in here under a title you didn't know about. Most of these films have been released under more than one title, and while we've done our best to use the one that's most likely to be familiar, that doesn't guarantee you aren't trying to find Crippled Avengers and don't know we've got it as The Return of the 5 Deadly Venoms. And so, we've gathered as many alternative titles as we can find, including their original language title(s), and arranged them in alphabetical order in this index to help you out. Remember, English language articles ("a", "an", "the") are ignored in the sort, but foreign articles are NOT ignored. Hey, my Japanese is a little rusty, and some languages just don't have articles.

    Marvels & Tales Volume 27 Article 13 Issue 2 The Fairy Tale in Japan 10-24-2013 Reviews Marvels & Tales Editors Recommended Citation Editors, Marvels & Tales. "Reviews." Marvels & Tales 27.2 (2013). Web. <http://digitalcommons.wayne.edu/marvels/vol27/iss2/ 13>. REVIEWS Ambiguous Bodies: Reading the Grotesque in Japanese Setsuwa Tales. by Michelle Osterfield Li. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 2009. Setsuwa are “short Japanese tales that depict extraordinary events, illustrate basic Buddhist principles or . other Asian religious and philo- sophical teachings, and transmit cultural and historical knowledge” (1). Dating from approximately the ninth through fourteenth centuries and gathered into a number of collections, with the most important being the multivolume Konjaku monogatari shū (A Collection of Tales of Times Now Past, ca. 1120), their sheer number means that they both defy easy categorization and offer an enormously valuable resource of linguistic and cultural material. Equally, their heterogeneous quality has meant that research, in English at least, has tended to focus on the lengthier, discrete texts of the Japanese late Classical to early medieval period, and so as a resource setsuwa remain still largely untapped. Given this, Li’s treatment can be nothing but welcome. The work consists of six chapters, bookended with an introduction and a conclusion. The first chapter, “Setsuwa and the Grotesque,” provides a discus- sion of and introduction to both setsuwa and theories of the grotesque, and each of the remaining five chapters provides readings of selections of tales with similar themes or on broadly related topics. Chapter 2, “Fantastic Detached Body Parts,” considers tales in which body parts act independently after death (a king’s head and that of his enemy biting each other in a cauldron), are ghostly apparitions (a child’s hand beckons to a nobleman from a knothole in a pillar), or are removed and returned by magi- cal means (a provincial governor uses sorcery to remove the penises of men who attempt to sleep with his wife).

  • Repentance Does Not Come First by Robert Denton III
    Repentance Does Not Come First By Robert Denton III His father used to say that it wasn’t wise to “gamble as the dice fell,” but they were cast now, so there was no longer any room for doubt. From this moment onward, his heart and mind must be in accord. Isawa Tadaka steeled himself and pushed the door aside. “Tadaka!” Shiba Tetsu rose from his cushion with a bright grin. In the teahouse’s muted light, the crest of the Order of Chikai glowed on his crimson robes. Tadaka returned the smile. “You are a sight for sore eyes, Tetsu-san.” “I’m just glad to see you are in one piece. You take such needless risks these days!” Tadaka shrugged. “The fruit is at the end of the branch.” They sat before a short lacquered table, Tetsu setting his iron kettle on a bed of hot coals and readying his ladle and whisks. “How is your recovery going?” “As well as can be expected.” Tadaka resisted the urge to touch his bandaged side. “Garanto Province was…humbling.” “So I’ve heard,” said Tetsu, pouring fresh water into the kettle. “How did you find the Kaito?” “Charming, but naïve.” He laughed at that. “Such is to be expected when one spends one’s whole life in the mountains, cut off from the outside world.” He flashed a look Tadaka’s way. “But then, you wouldn’t know anything about that, right?” “I came down for festivals.” A pause. “Sometimes.” Tetsu grinned and readied two cups. “Even so,” Tadaka continued, “I believe they are an underutilized resource for the clan.
