Inside a frame, behind a glass. A preliminary inquiry on law and film in Japan
This paper provides both lawyers and cinema experts with some insights about the depiction of law and criminal justice in films in Japan. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest of the Japanese movie industry towards ‘courtrooms drama’, i.e., films set in tribunals and having lawyers, judges, and prosecutors as main characters: a small ‘Golden Age’ of law as depicted in Japanese cinema. This paper (co-written by a comparative lawyer and a film studies specialist) will address this phenomenon from two perspectives: one from a legal studies and popular culture framework, analyzing how such movies reflect – and at the same time shape – the ‘legal imagination’ in Japan. The other, from film studies, focuses on technical, directorial aspects, to emphasize how authors intend to depict the law and its actors

Imoseyama onna teikin (1771) di Chikamatsu Hanji - Miti, incantesimi, ambiente naturale e drammi umani
The present paper focuses on Imoseyama onna teikin, one among the numerous works by Chikamatsu Hanji (1725-83) represented today in puppet theatre and kabuki. This drama traces the story of the power struggle between Fujiwara no Kamatari and Soga no Iruka, treated by many earlier dramas. At the same time this jōruri intertwines multiple narratives related to the region of Yamato: the legend of the bell of the thirteen strokes, of the willow of Uneme’s robe, of the distaff with strings and the divinity of the Miwa sanctuary.
Thus, while the protagonists are fighting and searching for the symbols of imperial power (the sword, the mirror, the jewel), which are usurped and hidden, in order to defeat the superhuman powers of Iruka, sacrifices of animals (the killing of a sacred deer of Kasuga) and of human beings (a boy, the two young lovers Koganosuke and Hinadori, the maiden Omiwa) must also be made. This paper focuses on the relationship between these “magical” events and the natural context of the places in Yamato
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
