Shigeru Mura and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
No full textP(論文)Shigeru Mizuki said that he was 80 percent Goethe and that Goethe was the only person he could respect. Mizuki was a cartoonist of the baby-boom generation whose major creative works were Kitaro in the Cemetery and Sanpei the Kappa, and Goethe is the famous German writer. This article addresses the connection between the greatest German writer and the Japanese yokai cartoonist who captivated the minds of post-war children.
The author compares the relationship between Mizuki and Goethe, who became the former’s mental support, with those of Johann Eckermann who wrote about Goethe, and Eishiro Kameo who translated Goethe into Japanese.departmental bulletin pape
Shigeru Ban. Il cappellaio matto
No full textDopo un articolo nel n. 1 (Anno 2002) di Abitare la Terra dal titolo “La leggerezza dell’involucro”, l'autore continua a raccontare gli sviluppi della carriera dell’architetto giapponese, attraverso un museo di arte moderna, aperto nel 2010 a Metz nel nordest della Francia. Seguendo l’ormai consolidata tradizione di realizzare un museo che punta non solo all’importanza delle sue esposizioni, ma anche alla qualità architettonica della struttura che le ospita, il Centre Pompidou di Metz è collegato al suo omonimo parigino che avrà così a disposizione un’altra prestigiosa sede dove esporre opere d’arte, altrimenti destinate a rimanere invisibili nei sotterranei.
Shigeru Ban rimane fedele alle sue parole d’ordine: la volontà di rendere resistenti i materiali leggeri che infondono e trasferiscono quella leggerezza all’architettura che avvolgono. Per far questo i materiali vengono studiati a fondo, intuendone la grande flessibilità applicativa, l’audacia strutturale e l’intrinseca promessa compositiva.After an article in the n. 1 (Year 2002) of Abitare la Terra entitled "The lightness of the envelope", the author continues to tell the developments of the Japanese architect's career, through a museum of modern art, opened in 2010 in Metz in the northeast of France . Following the established tradition of creating a museum that focuses not only on the importance of its exhibitions, but also on the architectural quality of the structure that houses them, Metz Center Pompidou is connected to its Parisian namesake another prestigious venue to exhibit works of art, otherwise destined to remain invisible in the basement.
Shigeru Ban remains true to his watchwords: the will to make light materials resistant and infuse and transfer that lightness to the architecture they surround. To do this the materials are studied in depth, sensing the great applicative flexibility, the structural audacity and the intrinsic compositional promise
The Open Square Method of (1st Century) and (Yasuaki Aida, 19th Century) (The study of the history of mathematics 2017)
No full text"The study of the history of mathematics 2017". September 19-22, 2017. edited by Shigeru Jochi. The papers presented in this volume of RIMS Kôkyûroku Bessatsu are in final form and refereed.Yasuaki AIDA, the founder of Saijo-ryu mathematical school, studied the irrational numbers, then he found that the quotients are circulates by the Euclidean algorithm. Then he calculated more accurate numbers in the chapter "Kon" of Sanpo Reiyaku-jutsu. The author analyzed the original text of Sanpo Reiyaku‐jutsu, then studied the origin of Aida's computation. It is perhaps the open square method of the Jiuzhang Suanshu in the first century in China. Chinese mathematicians computed the approximate value of irrational numbers by "mian". If the "mian" (面) were; x2 ("mian") = a(2_{X1} +X2) Japanese mathematicians, Yasuaki Aida, would have the suggestions from this formulae
