Poetical Passion of Kojiki : Expressions of "Kei" and "Shin"

Often in the poems of Kojiki, "kei" (tastefulness) represents the stage of human beings and "shin" (soul) a kind of transcendence towards divinity. Expressions of "shin" are very passionate because in Japanese mythology soul was believed to be the place where passions lay. In contrast, the poems of Nihon-shoki show not so much of passion as those of its earlier counterpart; there "kei" is dominant in tones. Thus comparing the two texts, I will make clear what poetical passion means.

Centralized Government System and Kokiden-no-nyougo

In Genji-monogatari, Kokiden-no-nyougo is described as a bad empress. It is so, however, not because of some historical facts but rather for some political reasons. The governmental system of the Heian era, built on Confucianism, was not only politically centralized but also male-centralized. The system was consequently the one which controlled or repressed such active and influential women as Kokiden-no-nyougo. Although she is inevitably contained in the system, she nevertheless resists the male-dominated society as bravely as the Chinese empress Ryoko. In this essay, I will focus on the female character to revise the previous readings of Genji-monogatari centered on the male hero Hikaru-Genji.

A Song of Metamorphosis Desire in Soan-koutashu

In Soan-koutashu, a collection of ballads followed by Kangin-shu, there is a song with a following strange line; "I want to become the bell rope of the Yoneyama-yakushido shrine. I want to. Then I want to be swung three times and worshipped three times." What does this strange wish to change into an inorganic thing like a bell rope mean? In this essay, I will answer the question by comparing it with other songs about metamorphosis. I will also consider why the song was included in Soan-koutashu.

Some old picture books are a treasury of historical facts. They might have had a considerable influence on Edo literature, which has been nevertheless given little attention by critics. To show how important this is, I will consider the relationship between Chikamatsu's work and Ehon-hogan. For example, "Beninagashi," one episode of his famous Kokusenya-kassen, is obviously influenced in its plot by the picture book.

In March 1907, the monthly "Bunsho-sekai" featured a special issue entitled "Shasei-to-shaseibun". Although in the preface it treated naturalism favorably and respectfully, saying "It is now the major literary movement," the magazine interestingly enough brought to the surface the problems of that movement. Almost at the same period, Kyoshi Takahama was about to convert to romanticism just because he felt the limitations of naturalism. In this essay, I will consider the meaning of the special issue of "Bunsho-sekai", which was then called the stronghold of naturalism, as well as that of Takahama's literary conversion.

Fragility of Dream in Hana and Imogayu

Ryunosuke Akutagawa's Hana and Imogayu have a similar motif; in the former story Zenchi-Naigu strongly wishes that his nose will be smaller, while in the latter Goi as strongly wishes that he can eat as much of "imogayu" (a kind of porridge with sweet potato in it) as he likes. Each wish of these characters is eventually fulfilled, but paradoxically, as soon as their dream came true, they realize how fragile such wish-fulfillment is. In both cases, such disappointment is caused by the existence of others. Thus in both of the stories, fragility of dreams metaphorically represents that of human beings who are hopelessly controlled by others.
