| Research Abstract |
Uehara investigates the ontological dimension of landscape of Kami by referring to the mythology of Ki-Ki. In addition, by contrasting the urban Buddhism to mountain Buddhism in the ancient period, he analyzes the landscape accepted for Buddhist monks, and contrasts it to the landscape related to Kami. He studies the myth and Honjo-dan. Furthermore, he continues to investigate general structures of landscape related to Kami, based upon field work in Izumo and other areas.
Kashiwagi studies the narratives concerning spiritual experience of Bodhisattva and deities in "Konjaku Monogatari-shu", and the narratives in "Shinto-shu". She especially takes up the relationship between Bodhisattva/deities and humans, the process by which the ordinary human transcends his own limits toward becoming Kami, the person sent by Buddha and Bodhisattva who will emerge as Kami, accompanied by related people, and the negotiation between the sacred and the profane from the late ancient period to the medieval.
Kimura regards the narratives about the landscape as representing in the form of narrative the human experience of the sacred through bodily senses and language. Only through the written record, it is possible for us to discern the ancient people's spatial conception as the cultural experience of the specific place, as the background of narrative. That experience of the sacred would be seen as the place to remember the holy event through experience of landscape, and sense the presence of Kami.
Toyoasawa explores and investigates the process of the modern subject emerging in Edo period, through the medieval study of ancient narratives. There, he sees two important factors : Buddhism as countering, and Confucianism as depending on.
