The eating and drinking customs in Fujian southern part can be regarded as a culture that has been brought up and handed down in the region. In daily lives, people feel and realize the working of the life and nature. While they adapted to life, they formed an idea ‶Medicine and Food Coming have the e Same Source". They inherited this idea through their long history. Therefore, we can say this idea is a basic system that has been supporting their lives since the ancient times and is the wisdom for keeping themselves healthy by themselves. The eating and drinking customs based on the idea ‶Medicine and Food Coming have the e Same Source" is one of the themes that the academic societies have been interested in. In this essay, I will try to analyze the eating and drinking customs in the annual events in southern Fujian concretely with regard to the idea of five Yin and Yang. And I would like to elucidate relations between the local eating and drinking customs and the characteristic of Chinese traditional culture. The fact that the idea of five Yin and Yang is involved in the annual events in southern Fujian shows the idea that basically every creature is medicine. And this shows that people there have the Chinese traditional Yin and Yang idea as a basis of their living. The fact epitomizes virtues and wisdoms of the Chinese traditional idea. I think the eating and drinking customs have an important role to hand the ideas and wisdoms down to their descendants in local society..

This study focuses on the historical background, current conditions, and future directions of preserving and utilizing Japanese cultural and historical heritage in Sakhalin, formerly Karafuto, during the Japanese occupation (1905-1945). It also provides the first detailed descriptions of the remains of shrines. A project to preserve Japanʼs historical and cultural heritage in Sakhalin met with negative reactions at first. But since Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev introduced perestroika reforms in 1985, Japanese rule has been recognized as part of Sakhalinʼs history and various exchange programs have been organized, such as cultural exchanges between the Sakhalin Regional Museum and the Historical Museum of Hokkaido (now Hokkaido Museum) and economic exchanges between Sakhalin and Hokkaido. Moreover, the governor of Sakhalin issued the law to protect historical and cultural assets in 1999, and an academic conference titled "Sakhalinʼs Culture : Past Experiences and Future Perspective" was held the following year. Since then, international symposiums on the protection of historical and cultural heritage during the Karafuto era have taken place regularly to promote various projects to compile a list of Japanese heritage properties ( existing buildings and remains) in Sakhalin, evaluate them for preservation, and publish historical documents. These projects include, for example, transferring guardian lions in Karafuto Gokoku Shinto Shrine to the Sakhalin Regional Museum, restoring a victory monument in Tomarioru Shrine, and preserving the building of the former Hokkaido Takushoku Bank Odomari branch. A list of the remains of shrines suggested for restoration, maintenance, and installation of information boards includes Karafuto Gokoku Shinto Shrine in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (formerly Toyohara City); a monument for the landing of the Japanese Sakhalin Expeditionary Army in the Merei area and a monument for loyal souls in Nagahama Shrine in Korsakov (formerly Odomari); Higashi Shiraura Shrine in Dolinsk (formerly Ochiai); a monument for the opening of Sakhalin Island in the Shiranushi area and Honto Shrine in Nevelsk (formerly Honto); Chiritoru Shrine in Makarov (formerly Chiritoru); Esutoru Shrine in Uglegorsk (formerly Esutoru); and Maoka Shrine in Kholmsk (formerly Maoka). The information boards will explain the names of shrines and deities, founding years and building exteriors. These projects will help Sakhalin play a more important role as a crossroad connecting islands in Asia-Pacific countries and the European continent, promote exchanges among peoples and nations, and develop new approaches to preserving Japanese heritage in Sakhalin.論文

Japanese houses traditionally featured one floor, but multi-storied houses started to be built in the Meiji period. With the spread of taller houses, stairs between the first and second floors took on increasing importance and underwent various changes. A review of past discussions and an analysis of house plans revealed that stairs in pre-World War II Japanese houses changed from straight to winder, and that the typical stair location changed from hallway to entrance hall. Based on these findings, the author asserted that stairs in Western homes were considered ideal at that time. This argument, however, was based only on the reference materials available and proposed the ideal stairs of the time without referring to their dimensions, such as risers and tread width. Thus, in this current study, sixteen two-storied houses designated as important cultural properties were closely examined, with the stairs in each house measured to identify differences in their dimensions based on shape, location and house style. It was found that such differences can be attributed to house styles. Moreover, in Western-style houses the angles of the front and back stairs are same, whereas in traditional Japanese houses the back stairs are steeper and narrower than those in the front. In traditional Japanese houses, winder stairs are not as steep as straight ones ; yet straight stairs located at the entrance hall are less steep and wider than those in other locations. To summarize, as winder stairs at the entrance hall became common in pre-World War II Japan, stairs became less steep and wider like those in Western-style houses.

As local communities have become modernized and urbanized, rituals have undergone significant changes. Traditionally, academics have valued historical traditions and consistency in rituals and criticized changes in line with the modernization of society. However, do organizers and performers of rituals have the same view on such changes ? A great majority of studies on rituals have examined changes and their causes. Researchers claim that many aspects of rituals, from content to organization, have changed, and offer advice on continuing rituals by analyzing the social and local causes of those changes. Surely, they do not consider the perspective of those involved in rituals. Not many studies are conducted from their viewpoint, even though they are the ones who organize and perform local rituals. Such a study would offer significant insight on local folk beliefs in the domain of folklore. The author of this paper participated in and closely observed the Yabuneri Shinto ritual in Shiratsuka Town, Mie Prefecture, to find out the perspective of ritual organizers and performers. Yabuneri is a traditional ritual with a 350-year history. This ceremony to drive away diseases presumably originates from the myth of Susanoo, in which the deity slays a giant serpent with eight heads and eight tails. Tsu City in the prefecture started to move toward modernization and urbanization in the mid-1950s. During this process, the organization and structure of rites and rituals have drastically changed. This paper will reveal how recent changes in Shinto rituals are viewed by those involved based on interviews with shrine parishioners in the Shiratsuka area who organize and carry out the Yabuneri ritual.

The object of this report is to bring to light the role of the annual events in Lamaism in modern society in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China. The changes and effects of modern society on Lamaism and the transitions within Lamaism will be discussed in detail. The following four investigations will be discussed : 1. Investigation into the current state of Dazhao temple, built by Altan Khan in 1579 and located in Hohot ; and an investigation of the year-round activities conducted at Dazhao temple(these activities are scheduled by the lunar calendar). 2. The meanings of Lamaist language, including their origins and usage in storytelling. 3. Regarding the contents of the annual activities of Lamaism, specifically the use of masks, dancing and a detailed study of ʻBakudakamʼ dance. 4. An analysis of the role of Lamaist temples in modern society from an outsiderʼs perspective. However, the investigations conducted for this report about the Lamaism of Dazhao temple were not able to fully utilize the detailed documentation. Because of this, the analysis also features insight from an outsiderʼs point of view as well as factors remaining from conventional activity at Dazhao temple. Through this, we can conduct a deeper analysis of how Lamaism has adapted to modern society.

The main objective of this paper is to discuss the history of shrines in Karafuto based on materials from the pre-Russo-Japanese War period before Japan took over southern Karafuto. A comparison of shrines in Karafuto and other areas found three major characteristics of Karafuto. First, religious activities were allowed in the name of religious freedom between the invasion of the Soviet military and the repatriation of Japanese people. Second, Japanese made up a large majority of the population. Third, deities that people worshiped were diverse. From the second half of the Edo period, shrines‒mainly those enshrining Benten or a goddess of water and fortune‒started to be built in Karafuto. Japanese there engaged in religious activities even when Karafuto was inhabited by both Japanese and Russians from the end of the Edo period to the beginning of the Meiji period. It was confirmed that these shrines existed until the middle of the Russian occupation from 1875 to 1902. After southern Karafuto became Japanese territory as a result of the countryʼs victory in the Russo-Japanese War, many Japanese moved there and built new shrines. The vast majority of the population in Karafuto was Japanese, and shrines were built according to religious practices in mainland Japan. Therefore, shrines in the region have a historical background different from that of other overseas shrines in a narrow definition. It is unique that Japanese people in Karafuto were allowed to be involved in religious activities during the one and a half years between the Soviet invasion in August 1945 and the second repatriation of Japanese in January 1947. 279 shrines including those under the supervision of the colonial government of Karafuto and others managed by local communities were places of worship for Japanese in the area, despite differences in size and rank. Karafuto Shrine-a Japanese government-sponsored great shrine established in 1910 with construction completed on August 22, 1911‒was run by the national government but had strong commonalities with those established by local people. When comparing shrines and temples in terms of numbers of structures and monks, we realize that temples were far more powerful and influential. After Japanʼs defeat in World War II, shrines disappeared from Karafuto. They were founded for Japanese and thus perished when they left the region. In this paper, the history of shrines in the Northern Territories will be introduced based on materials from the Edo period. These materials indicate that no shrine in the territories was recognized by the Japanese government, and that local Japanese strived to have their shrines recognized.
