Research Abstract |
The Aim of this Research is to examine the iutuals on Rica Farming in Japan and Korea from the Comparative Point of View. 1) The Recent Archaeological Studies indicate that the Origin of Rice Cultivation in both Countries could be traced back to in the 4th century B.C. and the 6th or the 7th century b.c. Respectively. I consider that many Vestiges of Traditional Beliefs relating to Rice Cultivation in two countries could be seen in the Current Forkloristic Rites. 2) In korea, a Retual called 'Chosandanji' is an Example. Characteristics of the Ritual are as follows: (1) it is conducted exclusively by a Housewife in her Bedroom; (2) she puts new Rice Representing Ancestor-Spirit into a Jar. In Japan, 'Nandogami'--very similar Rituals are noticed mainly in Sanin District, in 'nandogami' a Housewife commonly puts Rice or unhulled Rice into a Straw-ricebag in her Bedroon. 3) Though many Similarities are seen in both Rituals, there are some Differances. For Instance, while Ancestor-Spirit is regarded Important in 'Chosandanji' a Rebirth of Rice-Spirit seems to be emphasized in 'Nandogami'. 4) It could be said that such Differences are rooted deeply in Traditional Beliefs of both Countries.
