Tsukushi: Isle of Unknown Fires
CHAPTER 3 TSUKUSHI: ISLE OF UNKNOWN FIRES rom Saga City, near the Yayoi remains of Yoshinogari, the main Froad north heads across the plain and then winds through wooded mountains before reaching the north Kyushu coast. The spectacular stretch of coastline here in Karatsu Bay is called Niji no Matsubara, or ‘Rainbow Forest of Pines’ after its long bow-shaped beach flanked by trees. Its sheltered position makes it second perhaps only to Hakata Bay further to the east as a safe haven for ships. Today the journey from Saga features a recently built landmark as the road runs through the mountains to the sea. Around a corner on the approach to a services area near the town of Kyūragi, an impressive white statue looms into view. Standing forty-six feet high and rotating gently, this giant figure of a young woman – wearing loose robes and with one hand held aloft – recalls at first glance the Statue of Liberty, until closer inspection reveals she is waving a cloth. This is Sayō-hime, the celebrated beauty who, according to legend, captured the heart of the general of the Yamato army when he passed this way in 537.1 Ōtomo Sadehiko, a renowned military leader, was bound for Karatsu to lead his troops across the sea to fight in the Korean peninsula. Shortly before leaving he married Sayō-hime, and so she joined him in Karatsu as the expedition prepared to embark. Her statue recalls the scene when, as Sadehiko’s ship set sail, she climbed a hill near the shore and waved farewell from the top. -
Deterioration of Fisheries in Ariake Sea Resulted from the Reclamation of Isahaya
Symposium Deterioration of Fisheries in Ariake Sea Resulted from the Reclamation of Isahaya Bay [Rationale] Under the Isahaya Bay Reclamation Project, Isahaya Date: Bay was closed off from the rest of the Ariake Sea by a dike in 1997, destroying the vast tidal flats in the Thursday, 9 November 2017, bay and living organisms that inhabited there. This 19:00 – 21:30 incident made the headlines both at home and abroad. Ever since, fisheries in the Ariake Sea has been on the Venue: decline. The third-party committee made a proposal to the government to open the floodgates of the dike , 3rd Training Room, 4th Floor AVANCE and carry out medium- and long-term surveys. And the Dondondonnomori Park, 3-2-11 Tenjin, Saga-shi court ordered the government to open the floodgates 10 minutes from AWS Venue Hotel Grande Hagakure and conduct the surveys, but the government refused Organisers: to follow the orders and this spring (2017) Minister Association of Researchers Calling for the Opening of Agriculture, Forestry and Fishery announced the the Floodgates in Isahaya Bay government’s policy not to open the floodgates.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate the condition of the Ariake Sea, Japan, which has been suf- fering from severe environmental issues for the past few decades. Water quality data have been generated from several points in this area for over 30 years by the Fukuoka, Saga, Kumamoto, and Nagasaki prefectures. In order to understand the characteristics of this sea, principal component analysis (PCA) was utilized using 11 water quality parameters; transparency, temperature, salini- ty, dissolved oxygen (DO), chemical oxygen demand (COD), dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), + − − ammonium-nitrogen ( NH4 -N), nitrate-nitrogen ( NO3 -N), nitrite-nitrogen ( NO2 -N), phosphate- 3− phosphorus, ( PO4 -P) and silica. PCA conveyed the amount of nutrients originating from the river, the organic pollution level, and seasonal changes. Subsequently, principal component scores were calculated for each point. It was concluded that the Ariake Sea environment has been affected by two main factors, which are the nutrients from the Chikugo River and anticlockwise tidal residual flow. -

The Era of Movable Type and the Nejime Library in the Age of “Civilization and Enlightenment” (Bunmei Kaika) 37
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by GLIM IR Institution Repository The Era of Movable Type and the Nejime Library in the Age of “Civilization and Enlightenment” (Bunmei Kaika) 37 The Era of Movable Type and the Nejime Library in the Age of “Civilization and Enlightenment” (Bunmei Kaika): Concerning a World with Books Ken’ichi Nejime Gakushuin Women’s College In this article, I have first considered the historical and cultural relations be- tween Japan and Korea and referred to important problems concerning mov- able type technology. Interestingly, this technology was introduced to Japan through two routes. In the late sixteenth century, at approximately the same time as the Tensho¯ embassy, which left Japan in 1582 and returned in 1590, brought movable type technology from the West, it was also introduced from the Korean peninsula through a tragic event. I have clarified what kinds of books and cultures were created by this new technology, which was introduced across the seas between East and West. I have then added a discussion of the world of Meiji, focusing on regional culture. At this time, Japan was promot- ing rapid modernization or Westernization. In Nejime, on the O¯ sumi Peninsula at the southern tip of Kyu¯ shu¯ , there was a library established for the sake of improving the education of the local residents, so as not to fall behind the trends of the new era. Considering that, perhaps, there were similar examples in Korea that transcend national boundaries, I have looked back on such achievements of our forebears as they worked towards modernization. -

The analysis, thus, reinforces the significance of the mate- ) rial and immaterial aspects highlighting the Kakure Kirishitan practitioners’ quintessential quest to idealize, establish, and maintain the human-divine harmony in their present locali- ties.

The studies on the talitroides by Iwasa (1934, 1939), Morino (1975, 1976), Hirayama (1980), and Hiwatari and Kajihara (198la, b) were restricted to the materials in the beach and the sublittoral. In addition to these works some short reports have been pub lished for Japanese gammaridean fauna (Stephensen 1932, 1938a, 1944a, Dahl 1944, J.L. Barnard 1967a, Nagata 1959, 1960, 196la, b, etc.). Despite of these pioneer works, our knowledge on the Japanese gammaridean fauna is still insuffi cient since only restricted area have hitherto been surveyed. The Japanese Archi pelago streches from the subtropical region to the cold temperate region, and is under complex influences of strong warm and cold currents.
