Peter Rabbit's popularity extends back to the first privately printed edition in 1902 and forward to the present day. What are the reasons for this enduring popularity? Numerous perspectives exist from which this question can be accurately addressed, among them the brilliance of Potter's artistic talent combined with her scientific knowledge, the blend of imagination and realism, the radical qualities of Potter's deceptively simple stories like ambiguous endings, and the pull of her poetic, yet restrained prose. In this paper I also propose another perspective from which to examine the instant and enduring popularity in the contemporary age, one that focuses the relationship between her works and environment-the ecocritical perspective. A close comparison of her works with Wordsworth's reveals that they are designed to move readers to actively engage in dialogues with nonhumans and to become advocates of conservation of the delicate balance created by the community of creatures and plants that share and maintain a habitat like the Lake District's.

If you think of the relationship between walking and writing in the Meiji era, probably DoppoKunikida(1871-1908) will most likely to come to your mind. Among the writers at that time, Doppo was the first to walk around the suburb of Tokyo called Musashino and on the banks of the Sorachi River in Hokkaido, which was a very unusual thing to do for ordinary people then. Here I tried to make clear how he was influenced by the ideas and works of modern Europeanpedestrian literature, which is said to be started by Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778), and handeddown to European Romantic artists like William Wordsworth (1770-1850). The most well-known works that depict the nature which Doppo experienced while walkingare his short novels titled ` Musashino' and `The Banks of the Sorachi River.' I exclusively dealtwith the former reading, closely focusing on tactile images including auditory images used thereand considered how modern European pedestrian literature was introduced to Japan in the Meijiera.

This paper reports on continuing research concerning the verification of the kind of"media agenda"shown by the Asahi Shimbun when reporting on development and use of nuclear energy in Japan. This research analyzes the period from 1981 to 1994. The report clearly shows that up until the Chernobyl nuclear power-plant disaster in 1986, and even for a while after that, the"media agenda"of the Asahi newspaper was based on the premise of promoting the development and use of nuclear energy, the exception being that of the nuclear-powered ship"Mutsu". However, after 1988 the subject of nuclear power plants moved onto the critical agenda and since that date the degree of criticism seen in reporting on the development and use of nuclear energy became stronger.

Several composers in western music history studied law at colleges of law or at law schools. Did their studies influence their works of music? Three composers were chosen from three time periods:G. F. Handel (1685-1795) from the Baroque period,R. Schumann (1810-56) from the Romanticism period, and P. I. Tchaikovsky (1840-93) from the Nationalism period in the latter 19th century. According to the analysis of their symphonies, it became clear that they all respected the Classical or Baroque music form and construction. They correctly keep the music regulations of Classical time. Hewever, they were not just conservative but also adventurous because they attempted and produced new ideas and original methods in their works. As a result of this research, there appear to be three common denominators among these three composers, namely that they attached much importance to the traditional music form, worked steadily, and were musically adventurous. Therefore, it is conclused that there is a relationship between the music and the composer who has experience in studying law.

The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a teaching method using answer sheet in college course. This answer sheet is consist of two columns, each of which is composed 15x7 grid. It is designed so that students will have to pay attention in class and a teacher will evaluate learningresults in every lesson easily. After class, teacher hand students assignments to summarize two topics which he explained oraly in the lesson. The advantage of this method is maintain the concentration of students, because they have difficulty solving problems without listening in class carefully. Furthermore, through this method, students will recognize that theories are not absolute and to advance a new theory is a academic objective.

This article suggests the similarities between the representations of Shakespeares dramatic characters, Joan of Arc and Oldcastle Falstaff, if they are examined from the religio-political context of sixteenth century England. Those two dramatic characters are represented as enemies of both the state religion and the hierarchically ordered society, but the crucial difference between two characters is how they leave the stage.Shakespeare's way of getting Joan off the stage goes too far, because Joan is already given a suitable chance to leave the stage in Act V Scene II: her capture by the Duke of York. This article points out the possibility that Shakespeare's Joan of Arc puts a girl who is ambitious and demonic into the framework of martydom.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the efforts of African-American female educators in the Jim Crow America, focusing on the work of Mary McLeod Bethune. Bethune, as many others at that period, valued education as the key for racial uplift and equality. She founded the Daytona Educational and Industrial Training School for Negro Girls, now called the Bethune-Cookman College, which emphasized the "industrial" aspects, self-support, and community service that were also common in many other African-American institutions in the South at that time. Her educational labors, however, were not limited to a school building, but extended to active involvement in local church activities, the African-American women's club movement, and many presidential administrations especially in the Roosevelt era. In this sense, Bethune may be seen as a progressive educator who strongly engaged in the affairs of her community in order to build a better world, and transmit the attitude of hope and struggle to the next generations. Such practice and thoughts of African-American educators are valuable in our efforts to re-examine both central and marginal discourses in order to go beyond and fully comprehend the mentally segregated society of the present day.

Jean - Jacques Rousseau's expression of old age found in les Reveries du Promeneur Solitaire can be understood as training that recurs in one's true self. He reduced amour proper as passions acquired by various human relationship to amour de soi , the soul filled only with the sentiment of existence.Late in Rousseau's life, he copied scores in the morning, went for a stroll in the afternoon, and collected plants and examined the plant structure and order. In this way, he put himself in harmony with the order of nature and did so in order to recover the harmony of his soul. This experience of fusing with nature brought the sense of his ego disappearing. It is a religious act of planning to separate the soul from the body, as "ecstasy" suggests it. For him, this sense of secession from the body was a sign of living in the next world because when the soul is liberated from the bonds of body, it is as though it rises into heaven. Therefore, Rousseau viewed nature as a religious textbook and contemplated nature to quiet the disorder of his soul because of unjust persecutions and to regain spiritual harmony.This idea of nature where person doesn't exist also recalls Rousseau's peaceful life with Madame de Warens. His contemplative life was deeply influenced by her and he seemed to identify her with calm nature, or looked at nature with her in his mind. That is to say, Rousseau's sentiment of existence was filled not only with the contemplation of nature but also with his memories of her.Even when he excluded the influence of the body from the soul, he realized that those memories still existed.According to Rousseau, Madame de Warens shaped him so that the two come to share their existence in common. His relationship with Madame was an essential part of his sentiment of existence. It was for this reason that he recorded this happy, intimate memories of Madame de Warens in the last chapter of les Reveries du Promeneur Solitaire.
