Fuji & Shizuoka Sengen Shrine (4 Hours) Surrounded by beautiful scenery and striking views of Mt. Fuji, Shizuoka Prefecture is a modern city with great ties to its historic past. First, we will visit Sunpu Castle Park. A lush, emerald green garden surrounds the park's showpiece, the ruins of Sunpu Castle. Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu built the castle in 1585 and lived there on two occasions. Its remains hint at its former grandeur. The Edo Period castle was surrounded by moats and stone walls whose size and fortitude can still be seen in the ruins. From the park, continue on to Shizuoka Sengen Shrine, a complex of seven shrines. Sengen Shrine contains 26 "Important Cultural Assets" and an extensive collection of historical artifacts from the Tokugawa shogunate that ruled Japan for 300 years during the Edo Period. Sengen Shrine is also noted for its dramatic architectural style and extensive use of gold leaf, lacquer and wood carvings. We will complete our day at Miho-no-Matsubara, a picturesque pine grove along the eastern coast of the Miho Peninsula, given the distinction of "New Three Views of Japan," a designation of scenic beauty. This inspirational spot for artists offers dramatic views of Mt. Fuji. Day 8**Mar 1 Kobe, Japan This morning, we will arrive Kobe, Japan. Ships disembark at 8:00 AM and embark at 3:00 PM. Kobe – Sake Brewery Museum & Mt Rokko (4 Hours) Sake is a Japanese alcoholic beverage made from rice grain. We will have a delightful drive through the city of Kobe, en route to the Sake Brewery and Museum. The southeastern section of Kobe is renowned for producing fine quality sake. Upon arrival at the Sake Brewery Museum, we will notice the scent of wood and straw. This is because the museum is housed in authentic sake "kura" (brewery). A screening of an old promotional short film as well as a variety of industrial videos explain the entire sake-making process, helps to explain sake's origins as well as provide instruction on how to better enjoy your sake tasting. Before we return to the ship, we will stop at the beautiful Mt. Rokko. Located in southern Hyogo and on the northern coast of the Osaka Bay, Mt. Rokko is the highest peak in the Rokko mountain range. Upon arrival, a drive to the top of the mountain for a stop at the Mt. Rokko Observatory where you'll enjoy spectacular panoramic vistas of Kobe's Osaka Bay and, on clear days, the Inland Sea.

Okinawa – Shurijo Castle & Kokusai Street (4.5 Hours) The largest island in the Ryukyu Archipelago, Okinawa has been a center of trade and a source for conflict through its history. Upon arrival at the port, we will visit Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was the palace of the Ryūkyū Kingdom and cultural center of the Ryukyu Island until 1879. It was almost completely destroyed in 1945 during the Battle of Okinawa. In 1992, it was reconstructed on the original site based on photographs, historical records, and memory. One might be in for a surprise as the architecture of the castle is very different from other Japanese castles. After that, we can enjoy our shopping at Kokusai Dori, literally "International Road", is Naha's main street, stretching for roughly two kilometers through downtown Naha. After enjoy our shopping here, we will return to our ship. Day 11**Mar 4 Keelung – Beitou (D) Arrive at Port of Keelung Passenger Terminal. After disembarking, we will have a tour in Keelung, a port city near Taipei, in northern Taiwan. Surrounded by mountains, it’s known for its sheltered harbor. Heping Island Park is one of the earliest places where the Han people settled. A big highlight of Heping Island Park is its sea-corrosion landscape. The park is full of sandstones. The strange rocks along its coastlines make a unique landscape after they are eroded by sea water and sea winds for a long time. Keelung Miaokou Night Market is one of the most famous night markets in Taiwan. They are open during the day for lunch also. As one of Taiwan's more traditional food-focused night markets, and get ready for some cheap, delicious seafood! Come with an empty stomach! Miaokou is located adjacent to Keelung Harbour and forms the downtown area of the city. Afterwards, we will head to our Hot Springs Resort as our accommodation for tonight. During our stay, feel free to enjoy the onsen spa inside the resort, as this rejuvenating experience will help reduce insomnia and aid in recovering from fatigue. Dinner will be served at the hotel.

  • Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei Mandara Talia J
    Mapping Sacred Spaces: Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei mandara Talia J. Andrei Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2016 © 2016 Talia J.Andrei All rights reserved Abstract Mapping Sacred Spaces: Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei Mandara Talia J. Andrei This dissertation examines the historical and artistic circumstances behind the emergence in late medieval Japan of a short-lived genre of painting referred to as sankei mandara (pilgrimage mandalas). The paintings are large-scale topographical depictions of sacred sites and served as promotional material for temples and shrines in need of financial support to encourage pilgrimage, offering travelers worldly and spiritual benefits while inspiring them to donate liberally. Itinerant monks and nuns used the mandara in recitation performances (etoki) to lead audiences on virtual pilgrimages, decoding the pictorial clues and touting the benefits of the site shown. Addressing themselves to the newly risen commoner class following the collapse of the aristocratic order, sankei mandara depict commoners in the role of patron and pilgrim, the first instance of them being portrayed this way, alongside warriors and aristocrats as they make their way to the sites, enjoying the local delights, and worship on the sacred grounds. Together with the novel subject material, a new artistic language was created— schematic, colorful and bold. We begin by locating sankei mandara’s artistic roots and influences and then proceed to investigate the individual mandara devoted to three sacred sites: Mt. Fuji, Kiyomizudera and Ise Shrine (a sacred mountain, temple and shrine, respectively).

Chapter 3 Justification for Inscription 3.1.a Brief Synthesis 3.1.b Criteria Under Which Inscription is Proposed 3.1.c Statement of Integrity 3.1.d Statement of Authenticity 3.1.e Protection and Management Requirements 3.2 Comparative Analysis 3.3 Proposed Statement of Outstanding Universal Value The Sacred Island of Okinoshima and Associated Sites in the Munakata Region Chapter 3 Justification for Inscription Justification for Inscription 3.1.a Brief Synthesis The Sacred Island of Okinoshima and Associated Sites in the Munakata Region is located in the western coastal area of Japan. It is a serial cultural property that has eight component parts, all of which are linked to the worship of a sacred island that has continued from the fourth century to the present day. These component parts include Okitsu-miya of Munakata Taisha, which encompasses the entire island of Okinoshima and its three attendant reefs, located in the strait between the Japanese archipelago and the Korean peninsula; Okitsu- miya Yohaisho and Nakatsu-miya of Munakata Taisha, located on the island of Oshima; and Hetsu-miya of Munakata Taisha and the Shimbaru-Nuyama Mounded Tomb Group, located on the main island of Kyushu. Okinoshima has unique archaeological sites that have survived nearly intact, providing a chronological account of how ancient rituals based on nature worship developed from the fourth to the ninth centuries. It is of outstanding archaeological value also because of the number and quality of offerings discovered there, underscoring the great importance of the rituals and serving as evidence of their evolution over a period of 500 years, in the midst of a process of dynamic overseas exchange in East Asia.

Almost all are Japanese terms. The dictionary can be used in the ordinary way if the Shintō term you want to look up is already in Japanese (e.g. kami rather than ‘deity’) and has a main entry in the dictionary. If, as is very likely, the concept or word you want is in English such as ‘pollution’, ‘children’, ‘shrine’, etc., or perhaps a place-name like ‘Kyōto’ or ‘Akita’ which does not have a main entry, then consult the comprehensive Thematic Index of English and Japanese terms at the end of the Dictionary first.

Táňa Dluhošová, Ph.D. Prohlášení: Prohlašuji, že jsem bakalářskou práci vypracoval samostatně, že jsem řádně citoval všechny použité prameny a literaturu a že práce nebyla využita v rámci jiného vysokoškolského studia či k získání jiného nebo stejného titulu. V Praze, dne 18. ledna 2021 Matyáš Havel Poděkování: Na tomto místě bych chtěl poděkovat především vedoucí mé bakalářské práce, Mgr. Táně Dluhošové, Ph.D., jejíž laskavý a vstřícný přístup, ochota a cenné rady mi byly motivací během celého procesu psaní. Dále bych rád poděkoval za veškerou pomoc a podporu své drahé kamarádce Leně Ryzhové. Díky patří rovněž profesorce Melisse Lin Shih-hui za nezištnou pomoc při získáváním potřebných zdrojů, a také Elišce Novákové, jež mi byla nápomocna ve věcech japonských reálií a transkripce z japonštiny. V neposlední řadě bych chtěl vyjádřit díky všem svým blízkým, kolegům, spolužákům, přátelům a zejména své rodině za neutuchající podporu. Abstrakt Vycházejíc z koncepce „kontaktních zón“ (Clifford 1997) a kritické muzeologie, tato bakalářská práce se v teoretické rovině zabývá otázkou role muzeí ve společnosti a způsobem, jakým se podílejí na vytváření a komunikaci určitého pojetí identity a kulturního dědictví. Konkrétně jsou tyto koncepty zkoumány v případě taipeiského Muzea horkých pramenů v Beitou, původně budovy veřejných lázní z období japonské vlády na Taiwanu. Na základě analýzy stálé expozice muzea a vybraných sezónních výstav práce zkoumá, jakým způsobem je v muzeu prezentováno místní kulturní dědictví a identita.

That volume was first published in 1994, with a revised compact edition published in 1999. The main text of Shinto jiten is translated into English and publicly available in its entirety at the Kokugakuin University website as "The Encyclopedia of Shinto" (EOS). This English edition of the chronology is based on the one that appeared in the revised version of the Jiten. It is already available online, but it is also being published in book form in hopes of facilitating its use. The original Japanese-language chronology was produced by Inoue Nobutaka and Namiki Kazuko. The English translation was prepared by Carl Freire, with assistance from Kobori Keiko. Translation and publication of the chronology was carried out as part of the "Digital Museum Operation and Development for Educational Purposes" project of the Institute for Japanese Culture and Classics, Organization for the Advancement of Research and Development, Kokugakuin University.

  • Establishment and Solidification
    Communication and Exploration Foreword Human communities have always been fascinated by the past, using the information gained from elders, the landscape, ancient sites and objects to plan for the future. More or less consciously, innovation is often based on the knowledge we have inherited from earlier genera- tions. Such knowledge is not only a variety of technical skills and tradi- tional savoir-faire, but also a range of behaviours: uses and reciprocities, covenants and unwritten rules, mutual exchanges and informal rela- tionships that can be defined as “social capital”. These assets may be regarded as trivial, and may even be disregarded when things work well, but can be an important resource in a crisis. The central role which heritage can play in order to enhance and pre- serve this particular kind of wealth is increasingly recognised. Today’s public policies value heritage and culture, they are no longer simply regarded as resources used only for entertainment. Ecomuseum policies and practices, which embody both cultural and local development initiatives, are a prominent example of this new trend. Some thirty years after the first ecomuseum projects were initiated, they now operate in every corner of the world. Some indication of the strength of the ecomuseum movement was demonstrated at the Com- munication and Exploration Conference held in Guizhou, China. More than a hundred scholars and practitioners from fifteen countries on the five continents met in 2005 to talk together and share ideas and ex- periences. The themes discussed indicated the very real challenges facing contemporary society, and highlighted the connections between history, memory and innovation.
