Narratives of Furui 符瑞 and the Compilation of Dynastic Histories in the Han and the Jin Periods: Focus on The Zhi 志 Framework of Narratives
No full textFurui (符瑞), auspicious phenomena, were recounted within the framework of Fengshan (封禅) sacrifices in the Shiji. This form of recounting furui was continued in the Hanshu within the framework of the treatise on the Rites of Suburban Sacrifice (郊祀). After the annals of the Xuan Di (宣帝) period in the Hanshu, it became standard practice to recount a series of measures in response to the holding of suburban rituals and the emergence of furui. On the other hand, as the Rites of Suburban Sacrifice became institutionalized in the late period of the Former Han, the role of furui changed, as evidenced by the Baihu Guan Council (白虎觀會議) held during the Later Han Emperor Zhangdi's reign. At this meeting, thirty-seven events were selected as furui to be recognized by the dynasty. In addition, their appearance was seen as being in response to the emperor's virtuous rule. This can be traced not only in the narrative of the Dongguan Hanji (東觀漢記), but also in the inscriptions that were popular at the time. The narratives of furui, which had extended to local communities, once again converged in the court from the end of the Later Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period. In particular, furui that appeared at the time of the regime change between the Han and Wei dynasties are described as being closely related to the chengwei (讖雲). However, in the Xu Hanshu (續漢書) and Weishu (魏書) of the Sanguo zhi (三國志), which were compiled during the Western Jin dynasty, furui are described in a very restrained manner. This narrative trend is prominent in the Xu Hanshu. In addition, the Xu Hanshu not only does not recount furui but also describes the events that had been described as auspicious omens in Dongguan Hanji as disasters. Although it is difficult to say whether the attitude of omitting furui in the Xu Hanshu and Sanguo zhi was based on the judgment of the dynasty or the author himself, but it can be said to represent the political and social climate of the period. On the other hand, furui continued to be a subject of commentary in court diaries (起居注) of the Western Jin dynasty and in records related to the dynasty. This means that furui described in the Xu Hanshu and Sanguo zhi do not reflect the historical characteristics of the period they were written about
The portrait of the "hero" in the novels of Furui Yoshikichi and Furuyama Komao.
No full textpdfThe speaker focuses on the literature of the 1970s and the so-called inward-looking generation which represents that decade. With reference to characters of novels from this period he compiles a portrait of the character-type which epitomizes this generation.
(1) The Furui Yoshikichi's hero:
―living in an "extraordinary mundanity. "
The hero's sense of time and space
―the newly settled frontier region as a special kind of space.
―the confluence of traditional and modern cultures.
Relations between the sexes
―the highly-strung, abnormal woman, the man lacking in ambition.
(2) Furuyama Komao's diminutive protagonist
―the ordinariness of everyday life and the illusion of the past in Jimen o hau ningen (The human who crawls on the ground).
My research on the works of Furui and Furuyama was motivated by my interest in "the hero" in Japanese literature. This is an interest I have been pursuing for the past ten years, and about which I have wrritten several theses, for example, "The hero in the pōetry of Hagiwara Sakutaro", "The hero in the novels of Tanizaki Junichirō," and "Man as portrayed in the novels of Kaikō Ken."
From readings of Various works by a particular author, one gains an impression of an over-all character type (which may differ to some extent from novel to novel). The specific characteristics of various characters can be collated and, from these, qualities of human character can be extracted, so that various individual characters are reduced to a composite, abstract type. This procedure may be queried, but as time today is limited, I will present only a summary of my thesis, and only the results of my analyses will be explained in any detail. In other words, my remarks will be limited to an explication of what I consider to be the most salient aspects of the Furui Yoshikichi and Furuyama Komao herose.conference pape
Embolic Stroke with a Patent Foramen Ovale and Behcet's Disease
No full textWe report a case of a 53-year-old man with Behçet’s disease (BD) and paradoxical stroke. This patient suddenly developed sensory aphasia, right oculomotor palsy, nystagmus, and left ataxic hemiparesis. MR images showed fresh embolic infarcts in the midbrain and the left parietotemporal lobe. He presented with uveitis, oral aphthous ulcers and genital ulcers. An electrocardiogram revealed no abnormalities, and a transesophageal echocardiogram disclosed a patent foramen ovale. Since venous involvement is common in BD, we suspected the presence of smaller thrombi probable in this patient. We conclude that embolic stroke is a notable complication of BD with right-to-left shunting.金沢大学医薬保健研究域医学

Plasmonic Black Absorbers for Enhanced Photocurrent of Visible-Light Photocatalysis
No full text
Plasmonic resonance of noble metal nanoparticles can drastically enhance the visible response of wide-bandgap photocatalysts such as TiO2, but the current technology has two fundamental problems: narrow absorption band and low absorption, which limit the energy efficiency of photocatalysis using sunlight. Here, an original plasmonic black absorber is reported, which sandwiches a 150 nm TiO2 layer between a layer of random Au nanoparticles and a rough Au surface (200 nm thick). The combined plasmonic effect of the Au nanoparticles and the Au rough surface enables a strong absorption (72%-91%) over 400-900 nm and a significantly (20-fold) enhanced photocurrent as compared to the bare TiO2 film. The strong absorption to visible and near infrared light, and the much enhanced photocurrent make the black absorber an ideal material for solar applications such as photocatalytic, photosynthetic, photovoltaic, and photothermal systems.</p
