HASTE DE LÍRIOS, DE KENJI MIYAZAWA
No full textThe present work is a translation from Japanese to Brazilian Portuguese of the Yomata no Yuri (Stem of Lillies) tale written by the Japanese author Kenji Miyazawa (1893-1933). Miyazawa was an essayist, poet and writer of Japanese children's tales. Even though his work is not so popular in Brazil, in Japan it has achieved much notoriety. He is considered one of the most relevant writers in both prose and poetry. Miyazawa was born in Iwate and graduated in Agricultural Sciences. He was also a professor and dedicated himself fundamentally to the writing career. His work is notably influenced by Nichiren Buddhism, which can be seen in the following work. This translation aims at presenting to the Brazilian public an example of the Kenji’s literature, considering the cultural relevance of his work and the importance for understanding the Japanese way of thinking.O presente trabalho é uma tradução para o português do Brasil do conto Yomata no Yuri (Haste de Lírios) do autor japonês Kenji Miyazawa (1893 – 1933). Miyazawa foi ensaísta, poeta e escritor de contos japoneses infantis. Embora a obra dele não seja tão conhecida no Brasil, no Japão ela alcançou bastante notoriedade, podendo ser considerado um dos escritores mais relevantes tanto na prosa, quanto na poesia. Miyazawa nasceu na prefeitura de Iwate, graduou-se em Ciências da Agricultura, foi professor universitário e dedicou-se fundamentalmente à carreira de escritor. Sua obra apresenta forte influência do Budismo Nichiren, como pode ser visto pela leitura do conto a seguir. Esta tradução visa a apresentar ao público brasileiro um exemplo da literatura de Kenji, tendo em vista a riqueza cultural de seu trabalho, bem como relevância para o entendimento do pensamento japonês
Miyazawa Kenji and a Tale of “Kanji”
No full textMiyazawa Kenji (1896-1933), a poet and author of children’s stories, spent much of his life laboring to improve the material and spiritual lives peasants in the impoverished farming communities of Iwate Prefecture. He received little notice during his lifetime, but since the Second World War the sincerity of his work, reflecting a life of spiritual struggle, has attracted growing attention. In this paper we examine relationship between kanji and Miyazawa Kenji and the meaning of kanji for him referring some works including Otsuberu to Zou (1926, literally Otsuberu and the Elephant) and Kaze no Matasaburō (1934, literally Matasaburō of the Wind)
A Will from Miyazawa Kenji : Journey to the West, the Monkey King, and Dayu
No full textMiyazawa Kenji (1896-1933) is a well-known author of children\u27s literature from and poet. He created many children\u27s literature and poet applying with his inexhaustible imagination. At the same time he often applied his rich culture for Chinese classics including not only the Four Books and Five Classics of Confucianism but also popular novel like Journey to the West to his works. In this paper we examined Miyazawa Kenji\u27s works and discussed meanings of Chinese classics for Miyazawa Kenji

Does Trust Work in the Era of Distrust? Kenji Miyazawa and William James Give the Same Answer
No full textThis essay discusses ideas of Kenji Miyazawa that could help people of today rebuild confidence in themselves. Kenji held numerous ideas in common with great thinkers such as Fyodor Dostoevsky and William James. Kenji knew a great deal about the latest theories of natural science and psychology of his time. These were key sources of spiritual energy that enabled him to reexamine the relation between individual happiness and the happiness of the entire world. As the issue remains a major concern in our society, the author outlines Kenji's conclusion as to it

THE RIGIDITY OF THE TRIPLY BONDED VAN DER WAALS COMPLEXES AND BIOMOLECULES

The FTMW spectrum of the DME monomer exhibits quartet splitting due to the internal rotation of two methyl tops. The vdW bonding, however, effectively reduces the large amplitude motions in the complex and forms a rigid assembly. The rigid assembly formed by the weak triple bonding may be related to that in the biomolecules such as DNA bases or proteins. The FTMW spectrum of the DME dimer }, 2739 (2002).} exhibited the {\it A-E}_2\cdots_2_2\cdots_2C=CFH }, 102 (2003).}, DMEOCS, and DMECO }JPC A{\bf108}, 11234(2004).} exhibited the singlet spectrum corresponding to a rigid conformation. Instead, the singly bonded vdW complex DME\cdots_2O }, p.52, Hayama, Japan (2002).} is flexible and exhibits not only inversion doublet but also multiplet spectrum due to the internal rotation of the methyl groups. Within an organism, biomolecules such as DNA or enzyme protein maintain their steric conformation with hydrogen bonds, where the identical biomolecules must be exactly the same steric conformation. On the other hand, the smaller binding energy is preferable for their constant repeating of association and dissociation. These conflict properties may be accomplished with the triple vdW bond which can form a rigid assembly with weak intermolecular bond
Between Fire and Water: Miyazawa Kenji\u27s Reimagining of Opposites in \u3ci\u3eGinga tetsudō no yoru\u3c/i\u3e
No full textThis thesis explores how Japanese writer Miyazawa Kenji playfully uses opposites and binaries to create thematic richness in his famous children\u27s story Ginga tetsudō no yoru (Night on the Milky Way Railroad). Despite being a children\u27s book, the text works with mature themes such as loneliness, grief, and purpose, themes which are elevated through Kenji\u27s idiosyncratic stylings. Through a close reading of the original Japanese text, the author isolates moments where Kenji conveys his Nichiren Buddhist worldview as part of his proselytizing mission, as well as moments that increase thematic richness, resulting in a multifaceted text that continues to puzzle, challenge, and engage readers nearly one hundred years after its writing. Kenji treats human constructed binaries as insignificant and hindrances to productive social connection, while at the same time treating pairing of opposites in the natural world as ordinary and beautiful, allowing for creation of a galactic adventure composed of altogether familiar components, and a worldview that can subsume elements as disparate as Christianity and paleontology
