Abstract

The last twenty years have seen a growth of fascinating with the Japanese, and the emergence of Japan as a world economic power has stimulated many works that have attempted to understand Japanese culture. The focus of this book is not on Japanese culture or society per se: rather, it is on how Japanese culture and society structure, shape, and mold the emotions of the Japanese people. All cultures shape and mold emotions, but the degree to which Japanese culture shapes emotion has led to several misunderstandings about the emotional life of the Japanese, which this book attempts to correct. Describing the findings of over two decades of research, this book presents the Japanese as human beings with real feelings and emotions rather than as mindless pawns caught in the web of their own culture. In the process, it unmasks many myths that have grown up around the subject and reveals important similarities as well as differences between the emotional life of the Japanese and that of people of other cultures.

Abstract

CIPANGO est une revue de l’INALCO, consacrée à des études en langue française portant sur le Japon. Sa perspective se veut pluridisciplinaire (histoire, ethnologie, géographie, économie, linguistique, littérature, arts, cinéma…). Elle privilégie les études de fond utilisant principalement des sources originales en langue japonaise. Actuellement, CIPANGO est la seule revue scientifique sur le Japon éditée en France. Elle accueille les articles des chercheurs rattachés à des institutions françaises, ainsi que, très régulièrement, des contributions émanant de chercheurs étrangers, qu’ils soient japonais, européens ou bien américains.

Abstract

"Sentiments, Language, and the Arts: The Japanese-Brazilian Heritage explores the complex feelings of Japanese immigrants in Brazil, focusing on their yearning for "home" as a way of interpreting the shifting nature of their identity. To understand the immigrants' lives and feelings from their own perspective, Hosokawa looks closely at their poetry, linguistic activities such as the borrowing of Portuguese words, amateur speech contests, and a fantasy about the shared origins of Japanese and the Brazilian indigenous language Tupi. He also examines the issue of group identity through the performing arts, analyzing the reception of Japanese sopranos who sang the title role in Madam Butterfly, participation in Carnival parades, and the oral storytelling of their history in popular narratives called rôkyoku. Translated from Japanese by Paul Warham.".
