| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to clarify and gain deeper understanding of the environment and the artistic styles of the Shuri Imperial Dynasty during the reign of Sho Iku Dynasty (circa 1835 thru 1847). Concerning the environment, the appointment of the roles in the Kannsen-Odori, the rehearsals and practices, and the preparation of tools were revealed through reimpression and epigraphy from the bibliotheca of the former Sho Family, subsequently making many corrections to popular theories. As with the dance style of the performing arts, the performance of Iriko-Odori was made possible at the National Theatre Okinawa through the findings from the above mentioned documents. Also, choreograph of the Onna-Odori, a woman dance found in literary documents, which had ceased its succession were reproduced, illustrations during the relative periods were used as references, and the technique on body works were exposed through the studies of the village dances which had been passed down in the regions where the Okansen-Odori were found, in attempt to restore the Ryukyu Performing Art of the Shun Dynasty by the Performance and Demonstration Group.
The succession of the Iriko-Odori had been ceased after the abolition of the royal dynasty ; however, Onna-Odori was passed down by dancers and actors since the Meiji era drastically changing its form. The restoration of the Onna-Odori during the reign of She Iku, had clarified the meaning of these dance periods and the demands of court performing arts in the present, or became the clue to understanding the evolving appreciation towards aesthetics.
