研究論文(Thesisses)The King Kong character which appeared for the first time in King Kong(1933) has two aspects: first he acts as the symbol of nature frightening human civilization, secondly as the symbol of the wild instinctive impulse within the human mind. Both of these two aspects contradict human civilization, so King Kong must be attacked by flying fighters, the most advanced weapon that human civilization had produced up until that time. He falls down dying from the rooftop of the Empire State Building, the symbol of human civilization. But the licensed Japanese movie King Kong Escapes(1967)described King Kong as a good monster who follows the heroine gently. This relationship of King Kong and the heroine foreshadowed changes in the later King Kong movies. In the first fully remade movie from 1976 King Kong is described as an individual creature living in nature rather than as the symbol of nature. Therefore the heroine is in contact with King Kong on equal terms, tries to communicate with him, feels sympathy and comes to love him. In the next remade movie from 2005 King Kong is described as the symbol of nature again. But the escalated environmental destruction had changed nature from the opponent that humans must struggle against into an object that they must protect. The heroine actively tries to protect King Kong and, in doing so, attempts to protect valuable nature. The change of King Kong movies reflects the change of the view on nature.

The purpose of this research was to examine whether it is effective to use the digital contents which can be confirmed while a child operates the contents and a numerical change is looked at about acquisition of a triangular height concept. Five of eight children were able to understand height again and handwriting was able to express from the posttest to the figure. Therefore, the dinamic digital contents that operate geogebra and draw a triangle are effective for the child who forgets, although the knowledge about triangular height was mastered or being mastered confirming again and understanding. However, three children were not able to draw an exact figure by a posttest. This result has confirmed suggestion of the previous researches that it is difficult for a child to understand the definition "height is distance, when a figure is inserted by parallel lines". It can be inferred that the factor with a difficult understanding that there are four steps illustrating triangular height.

Sword guards (tsuba) are one of the types of objects d'art collected by Westerners since the 19th century. However the criteria used for expertise at this time were unclear. In France art dealer Hayashi Tadamasa proposed a model for these procedures in a catalogue of his collection dated 1894. Soon after Hayashi's own expertise was called into question when connoisseurs started to notice mistakes in his comments on the objects of the collection. In Japan, starting in 1900, Akiyama Kyusaku became known for his observations on swords and sword guards thanks to the articles he published in the Journal of the Sword Society (Tokenkaishi). Georges de Tressan was searching for new scientific criteria and new methods of cataloguing based on documents published in Japan and in Europe. Moreover his writings as well as the letters he exchanged with collectors of sword guards living in three cities: Tokyo, London and Leipzig. show how he classified manufactures and swordsmiths and tried to perfect his criteria. We may use as an example a group of sword guards including one which belonged to Alexander G. Mosle's collection. They reveal the difficulties which arise in carrying out an expertise of Kaneiye sword guards. The debate between Tressan and Henri L. Joly concerning the masters of Kaneiye's groupe clearly shows the problems involved in a chronological study of swordsmiths. They examine the name inscribed on the object as well as various swordmaking techniques. Tressan's classifications were improved by Akiyama who responded to his questions with several letters. Moreover Tressan's method for the analysis of the pictorial decorations of sword guards made by Kaneiye's groupe allows us to see that he tried to appreciate them by means of his knowledge of the history of Japanese painting ; he also wanted to reveal the artistic value of the swords and the artistic qualities of their makers.

This papers advocates the Positive Philosophy through the Metanoesis of Tanabe's philosophy and Ethics of Spinoza. The author explains a positivity from the awareness of limitation in human being. Positive emotion such as joy and powerless awareness in surrender are also the essence of positivity. Awareness of penitence leading to an inability to transform its core is, in the philosophy of Tanabe, self-affirmation will occur through confession. On the other hand, in Spinoza, leading to self-affirmation of pleasure increases with the deepening recognition of the particular things, that it is inherent in God. Although both end of the spectrum is looks at first glance, is to elucidate the structure and the conditions under which positivity holds together. It is suggested from this that, in Positive philosophy , establishing the viewpoint meta integrated approach Positivity a counter seemingly "strength in weakness" in the PTG and the manner in various of positive emotions in positive psychology it is possible that.

研究論文(Thesisses)This paper surveys Hugo Munsterberg's life(1916-1995)and his research on the background and characteristics of Chinese and Japanese art. Munsterberg's father, Oskar Münsterberg, was a famous collector and historian of Chinese and Japanese arts active at beginning of the 20th century. From childhood Hugo was familiar with precious works that Oskar had collected in Asian countries. After immigrating to America in 1935, Hugo obtained a Ph.D in ancient Chinese arts at Harvard University. In the 1930s, research on Chinese and Japanese art made great progress in the United States being encouraged as a means of foreign policy. Munsterberg also taught at International Christian University(ICU)in Japan from 1952 to 1956, becoming a friend of antiquarians like YANAGI Muneyoshi and YUASA Hachiro. Thanks to these scholars, Munsterberg was able to publish many beautiful books on the arts of Japan, including Mingei(Japanese Arts and Crafts Movement)works. We will reveal what kind of research was being carried out in the field of the arts of the Far East around the mid-20th century and examine Munsterberg's 26 books about Japanese and Chinese arts based on the writing list. Among his books, we will analyze in detail The Arts of Japan an illustrated history and The Folk Arts of Japan which represent Munsterberg's convictions as art historian.
