<Article>City Landscape and Historiography in Pausanias' Ελλάδος Περιήγησις (Description of Greece): The Case of Tegea
『ギリシア案内記』は、ローマ支配下のギリシア諸都市の状況を伝える同時代史料としても、諸々の神話・歴史伝承を伝える歴史史料としても第一級の価値を持つ作品である。この作品の際立った特徴は、時系列に沿った歴史叙述を空間的な経路に沿った都市景観の描写に織り込んだその独特の構成にあるが、従来の研究では、これら二つの要素は相互に切り離されて論じられることが多かった。そこで本稿では、両要素の連関に注目することによって当作品の全体像を理解するための糸口を提供することを目指す。そのためのケーススタディとして、テゲアという都市に関するパウサニアスの記述を取り上げ、これを考古資料や他の文献史料と詳細に比較することによって、都市景観の描写とそこに挿入された歴史叙述が内容的に密接な連関を持つこと、その背景には、ローマ帝政期における都市ごとの景観と記憶の再編という同時代的な文脈があったことを示す。Pausanias' Ελλάδος Περιήγησις (Description of Greece) has been a constant reference work for classical historians, both as a contemporary source reflecting the reality of Greek cities in the second century AD and as a historical work preserving now-lost literary/oral traditions. The whole picture of the work, however, has not been adequately explored due to the tendency to divide the work into two parts, namely, the descriptive part describing monuments in each city according, in most cases, to the spatial order, and the historiographical part either preceding or interposing the descriptive part. With the aim of proposing a new understanding of the whole work, this paper explores the connections between the descriptive and historiographical parts in Pausanias' Περιήγησις. As a case study, we will focus on Tegea, an Arkadian city treated in some detail at the end of the Book Eighth. The description of the city includes two remarkable historiographical narratives, the biographical section on Philopoemen and the famous list of the “benefactors of the whole Greece”. In previous studies, the description of the city and the two historical parts are analyzed separately with hardly any connection to each other. In this paper we shall synthesize the studies devoted to the individual sections of the description of Tegea and demonstrate that there is a strong anti-Spartan tendency penetrating both the descriptive and the two historiographical sections: the descriptive part includes numerous remarks concerning monuments, places, and festivals commemorating victories against Spartan invasions (mostly dated to the archaic period); Philopoemen is constantly depicted as a liberator of cities from Sparta and its successive tyrants; the list of benefactors of the whole Greece includes those who overthrew Spartan hegemonies in Greece, such as Conon and Epaminondas, not to mention the “last benefactor” Philopoemen. The comparison with other literary sources, especially Herodotus and Plutarch, which Pausanias uses or alludes with high probability, will show that he selectively chooses those aspects of the preceding sources which describe the inter-Greek struggles against Sparta. The anti-Spartan tradition of the city of Tegea itself, known from literary, inscriptional, and archaeological sources, suggests that Pausanias consciously chooses the city as the place to insert the historiographical narratives tinged with anti-Spartan tendencies. The analysis of Tegea might seem to suggest that Pausanias, moving from one city to another, sympathizes with the memories and local traditions preserved in the landscape of each city. However, the city of Mantinea, another Arkadian city also treated in the Book Eighth, shows that this is not always the case. In contrast to the description of Tegea, where Pausanias focuses on the monuments commemorating Tegean victories against Sparta, the description of the city of Mantinea focuses on two historical themes: the battle of Mantinea (362 B.C.) and the peaceful relationship of the city with the Romans. In the case of Mantinea, too, Pausanias inserts historiographical narratives related to the monuments he depicts. In this case, however, he takes distance from the local traditions and sometimes expresses disagreements. We will conclude from the comparison of the two cities that Pausanias is highly conscious of the nature of the memories each city preserves in its city landscape, and that the historiographical narratives he inserts show his sympathies or antipathizes against the local memories. Taking into consideration the constant reconstructions and recreations of the ‘pasts’ conducted in Greek cities of the early imperial era, the city landscapes, into which Pausanias inserts historiographical narratives, are themselves a kind of “historiography” which expresses a certain vision of the past through the selective preservation and allocation/relocation of monuments. By analyzing the connections between the descriptive and the historiographical parts of Pausanias' work, we can reconstruct the discourse between Pausanias and the memories and historical visions incarnated in the landscapes of the imperial Greek cities
<Articles>How Pausanias Views Greece: A Reinterpretation from the Local Dimension
パウサニアスの『ギリシア案内記』は、「ギリシアに関するあらゆるもの」の叙述を目指した、その射程においても密度においても、他に類を見ない労作である。ギリシアを主題としたこの作品を理解する上で、パウサニアスのギリシア観が枢要の位置を占めることは自明であり、当然その解明を巡っては、これまで多くの研究が為されてきた。しかしながら、従来の議論が彼のギリシア観の一側面にしか焦点を当ててこなかったことは、あまり認識されていない。すなわちそれらの研究が注目してきたのは、ペルシアやマケドニア、そして何よりも、ローマという他者に対峙する存在としてのギリシアであって、そこにはギリシア内の個々の都市や地域といったローカルな枠組みとの関連で、ギリシア観の問題を検討する視座が欠けていた。そこで本稿はこのようなローカルな次元からの再検討によって、パウサニアスのギリシア観の新たな側面に光を当てるとともに、それを通して、ローマとギリシア、支配と被支配の二分法を前提とすることなしに、パウサニアスを同時代の文化の中に再定置する糸口を提示する。With the aim of depicting everything pertaining to Greece, Pausanias' Περιήγησις is a work incomparable both in its geographical scope and in the density with which each region is described. In order to grasp the core of this complex literary construct, many attempts have been made to understand Pausanias' views on Greece, past and present. Until recently, however, the prevalent interest on the issues of Roman imperialism has too often led to an overemphasis of Greek vs. non-Greek (particularly Roman) conflicts, which, on the other hand, has caused the relative neglect of the local dimension of Pausanias' Greece. That is to say, the poleis and regional entities which collectively constitute Greece have not been paid the attention they justly deserve in the attempts to interpret Pausanias' views on Greece. This paper, therefore, focuses on the often- neglected local dimension, and uses this as a key to understanding the way Pausanias conceptualized the history of Greece. His consistent 'anti- Spartan' attitude, it will be argued, enables two different concepts of 'Greece' to co-exist in Περιήγησις - one against non-Greeks such as Persians, Macedonians, and Romans, the other against Sparta. This duplicity of 'Greece', it turns out, functions as a joint through which to integrate the decline narrative of Greece, full of inter-Greek wars, into the idealized vision of the classical period symbolized in the victory against the Persians. Finally, suggestions are made to newly contextualize the work in the culture of the Roman Empire of the 2nd century, without turning back to the well-worn dichotomy of Greek vs. non-Greek
Study on Traditional Coating Materials Used on Japanese Folk Architecture and Its Application to the Restoration of Coatings ―Case Study on the Ono Family House at Shiojiri, Nagano―
The present paper is a report on the observation and analysis of traditional coating materials used on Japanese folk architecture and its application to the restoration of coatings.
Study by observation of the Ono family house at Shiojiri,Nagano prefecture revealed that most of the wooden members of this architecture are covered with some types of coating material, especially with urushi which is very lustrous. The coating methods used were identified as shunkei-nuri, black urushi coating, black coating, bengala coating, and suri-urushi or fuki-urushi. Next, elemental analyses including those using a microscope, PY-GC/MS and X-ray fluorescence, as well as cross-section analysis by observation were conducted on small pieces of coating layers.
As a result it was found that although the coated surface might appear quite lustrous, not all was coated with urushi. On some surfaces dried oil had been used,while on others new materials, such as varnish or wax, had been used. There were even places where the surface had been polished by constant wiping.
Based on these findings,it was decided that,to restore the coated surfaces of the Ono family house, urushi coating would be applied only to places where analysis had clearly shown urushi coating, while for other places boiled dried oil would be used to wipe the surfaces.journal articl

Exact solutions to plaquette Ising models with free and periodic boundaries
AbstractAn anisotropic limit of the 3d plaquette Ising model, in which the plaquette couplings in one direction were set to zero, was solved for free boundary conditions by Suzuki (1972) [1], who later dubbed it the fuki-nuke, or “no-ceiling”, model. Defining new spin variables as the product of nearest-neighbour spins transforms the Hamiltonian into that of a stack of (standard) 2d Ising models and reveals the planar nature of the magnetic order, which is also present in the fully isotropic 3d plaquette model. More recently, the solution of the fuki-nuke model was discussed for periodic boundary conditions, which require a different approach to defining the product spin transformation, by Castelnovo et al. (2010) [2].We clarify the exact relation between partition functions with free and periodic boundary conditions expressed in terms of original and product spin variables for the 2d plaquette and 3d fuki-nuke models, noting that the differences are already present in the 1d Ising model. In addition, we solve the 2d plaquette Ising model with helical boundary conditions. The various exactly solved examples illustrate how correlations can be induced in finite systems as a consequence of the choice of boundary conditions

Utilization of above-ground space in captivity by four sympatric shrew species from Hokkaido, Japan
The present study focused on the above-ground activity of shrews by observing their climbing frequency and duration on aerial parts of plants in a laboratory setting for four sympatric shrew species (Sorex unguiculatus, S. caecutiens, S. gracillimus, and S. minutissimus) in Hokkaido, Japan. All shrew species utilized aerial parts of plant. The lighter S. gracillimus tended to exhibit a higher frequency and longer duration of climbing on aerial parts compared to the heaviest S. unguiculatus, which tended to avoid using such parts. While the sample size is small, the smallest S. minutissimus and medium-sized S. caecutiens seemed to use more aerial parts than S. unguiculatus. All shrew species tended to prefer using the fuki butterbur and the sasa bamboo compared to the other plant types. Additionally, S. unguiculatus and S. caecutiens tended to avoid the use of herbs with the thinnest diameters. These findings are probably related with the diameter and morphology of plant. The result of the present study provides novel insights into the potential niche separation among the four sympatric shrew species in Hokkaido

This collection contains administrative records and photos documenting the Tule Lake camp, the largest incarceration camp with a peak population of 18,789 and with the most turbulent history. In 1943, the camp was turned into a segregation center to house "disloyal" Japanese Americans relocated from other camps based on their answers to a confusing loyalty questionnaire. The camp endured martial law from November 1943- Jan 1944 after escalating protests and unrest. The hostile environment of the camp lead to many incarcerees renouncing their American citizenship upon the end of incarceration, a process which took 14 years to reverse if they did not wish to be deported to Japan
