"Folding Screen Painting to Explain Meaning of Twelve-Month Songs" by Kano Einou (1631-97) is a pair of six-panel screen paintings on the basis of the waka poem of "Hatakeyamasyousakutei-siika". Uta-e (the painting basis on the waka poem) revived at the beginning of the early Kinsei era accompanying the revival of the court world of waka poetry, and "Hatakeyamasyousakutei-siika" also revived as a theme of a painting at that time. The work by Kano Einou is a very early example at this time. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the details, background, and his aim that Einou who was not specialist of yamato-e drew the painting on the basis of the waka poem eagerly, and to show how to have made up his own style in his producing such a work. In conclusion, Einou can be considered as one of a pioneer in the field of folding screen painting with waka poem by the painter who was not specialist of yyamato-e. He used the network succeeded from the grandfather Kano Sanraku and father Kano Sansetsu, and learned the technique of yamato-e, and worked on new theme actively. It can be said that work that he increased possessed important significance in followers such as Kano Eikei and Ogata Kourin.

In 1898, Okakura Kakuzo chose "Expression" as an objective at the first Nippon Bijutsuin Exhibition in Tokyo. After the autumn of 1897, the "Expression" became a terminology to critique exhibitions, but not before spring 1897. What did "Expression" mean? Why did the critics of the time pay attention to it? How did a modern Japanese painting artist, Yokoyama Taikan, apply this concept in his art? Yokoyama Taikan's Listening to the Buddha's Laws was considered as the work that followed the concept of "Expression." Taikan himself revealed that he explored the concept in his work. We understand from his explanation that "expression" for Taikan meant the expressions of people's emotion. My research found the two sources to be the cause of such a new trend: one was Suematsu Kencho's article, "Query on Japanese Painting," published on July 19, 1897 in the Yomiuri Newspaper, and the other was Lafcadio Hearn's "Theory of Japanese Painting," in Taiyo, vol. 3, #5, published on July 20, 1897. These articles caused the debate on "Expression." Taikan tried the technique of chiaroscuro for the first time in Listening to the Buddha's Laws to experiment the concept of "Expression," because the debate was focused on the relationship between the expression and the techniques of chiaroscuro.

Visual Culture Studies, which attaches importance to the sociality or historicality of vision, has revealed the problem of power which underlies "seeing", but on the other hand runs the danger of reducing "seeing" to a mere repetition of social structure or discourse. This paper aims to discover within "seeing" itself a way to break through the constructed nature of it by considering the notion of the Image and its double function in the theory of W. J. T. Mitchell. Mitchell defines the Image as a "natural sign", a sign which represents a resemblance in a given representation system. One of its social functions is to provide in a natural form the basis for "seeing" to those who share the same representation system. This basis is formed and functions not by the power of the Image itself, but through our narrations concerning the Image. However, the Image, as a natural sign, has a further function of making visible the basis itself for "seeing". Such a recognition of the Image is not "seeing" on a particular basis but is itself the basis for "seeing", and thus differs from seeing within "a prescribed set of possibilities". In narrating concerning the Image, we forget what lies outside of the possibilities even though we experience it continually.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit ist der Versuch unternommen worden, die Funktion des Waldvogels im zweiten Akt von Siegfried zu erhellen, um dadurch einen neuen Aspekt auf das Drama zu werfen. Uber diesen Vogel wurde in der Forschung selten diskutiert. Dort gait er als "Naturwesen" oder "Reinkarnation von Siegfrieds Mutter"; die letztgenannte Interpretation etablierte sich aufgrund der angeblichen AuJSerung Wagners, der Waldvogel sei die mutterliche Seele Sieglindes. Es ist jedoch schwer vorstellbar, dass Sieglinde ihrem Sohn empfohlen haben soil, den unheilbringenden Ring sowie den Tarnhelm an sich zu nehmen. Bei einer genauen Quellenpriifung wurde nachgewiesen, dass Wagners diesbeziigliche Worte in Wirklichkeit nicht existieren. Dariiber hinaus wurde versucht, das Wesen des Vogels nicht nur von seiten des Dramentextes, sondern auch von der Leitmotivik her zu beleuchten. Daraus ergab sich, dass der Vogel wohl eine Inkarnation Loges ist. Die Verwandlung Loges(Lokis) als Vogel laBt sich in den germanischen Sagen haufig nachweisen, so etwa in Edda. Nachdem Loge am Schluss Des Rheingoldes Rache geschworen hatte, verschwand er, um dann entweder nur leitmotivisch oder als Waldvogel auf sich aufmerksam zu machen. Loge bewog Siegfried dazu, den Ring zu ubernehmen, damit die Vernichtung der Gotter und die Ruckgabe des Goldes an den Rhein vollbracht werden konnen.

This paper reflects on Herder's concept of "common sense", understood in terms of sense common to all the senses. His saying "we are a thinking sensorium commune" from his Treatise on the Origin of Language (1772) has received increasing attention in recent years as it is thought to be at the origin of the concept of synesthesia. But why so? According to contemporary medical-psychological research, synesthesia is the concrete experience of fusion of the senses located in the limbic system. This means that synesthesia is the opposite of the Aristotelian conception of common sense, because the latter is the faculty to grasp abstract qualities. Herder's "sensorium commune" has a different connotation. By using this expression he meant that all the senses are originally one and the same (=feeling); they become differentiated from this and work together. This level is prior to both the birth of language and the judgment of beauty. Herder is the one who formulated such a conception of common sense, (which is not the faculty to grasp abstract qualities), for the first time in the history of ideas. This is why his "sensorium commune" is at the origin of the idea of synesthesia.

Die sich ihrer Modernitat bewussten Fruhromantiker, vor allem Fr. Schlegel, haben Fragmente mit Absicht verwendet, wie es sich aus einem Fragment von Fr. Schlegel ergibt: "Viele Werke der Alten sind Fragmente geworden. Viele Werke der Neuern sind es gleich bei der Entstehung." Im vorliegenden Aufsatz versucht der Verfasser nicht, das Fragment als eine literarische Gattung zu behandeln, sondern es geht darum, zu zeigen, dass der Geist des Fragments dem Gedanken Schlegels zugrunde liegt. Im Studium-Aufsatz von 1795 stellt Schlegel die vollendete Schonheit der alten Kunstwerke dem Fragmentarischen der modemen Kunstwerke gegeniiber. Ab 1797 leugnet er einen solchen Dualismus. Schlegels neue Auffassung des Fragments lasst sich in seiner Behauptung erkennen, dass das "Reifste und Vollendetste" "Bruchstucke von Bruchstucken" seien. Fragmente konnen "vollendet" sein, sofern sie "Winke und Andeutungen" sind. In diesem Sinne sind Fragmente Projekten gleichgesetzt. Und Fragmente als Winke und Andeutungen mussen mit der sie erganzenden bzw. verwirklichenden "Kritik", die selbst nicht anders als fragmentarisch sein kann, verbunden werden. Aufgrund einer solchen Erganzung vermitteln die Fragmente das Einzelne mit dem Ganzen, das Endliche mit dem Unendlichen, die Wirklichkeit mit der Moglichkeit und die Gegenwart mit der Zukunft.

As opposed to the linear perspective since Renaissance, Wolfgang Kemp recognizes new ways of pictorial composition in the 19th century which constitute new types of spectators seeing the world from their particular positions. Then he argues a parallelism between the new perspectives of modern paintings and those of modern novels. Different from the transcendent and omniscient viewpoint of narrating stories in the old age, and from the omniscient and transcendental viewpoint based on linear perspective, modern historical paintings and novels were concerned with narrative modes of individual experiences. According to Kemp, paintings newly defined spectators as individual witnesses of depicted events. But he does not assign the narrative mode of 'la vision ≪avec≫' (Jean Pouillon) to paintings which lets readers stand at the position of a diegetic character, because paintings always require the physical presence of spectators standing in front of them. He confuses the 'angle' of physical eye with the 'viewpoint' of narration. In fact, the narrative mode of 'la vision ≪avec≫' exists in paintings as well.

This article considers Nietzsche's concept of the artist in terms of Redlichkeit (sincerity; uprightness) in the late Nietzsche. In his discussion regarding art and the artist, he suggests the artist is most great among human beings, and art is contrary to Christian morality. Furthermore, he argues that the artist must be redlich. However, why is Nietzsche affirmative on the Christian virtue of Redlichkeit, but negative on Christian morality? It is through the break of existent moral values that the sincere Self can create value autonomously, i.e. Redlichkeit is not to others but to the Self for Nietzsche. Beyond that, the creating Self even breaks the value created by itself. That is to say, Redlichkeit to the Self is Redlichkeit against the Self also. I consider this Redlichkeit a fundamental requirement for creation, and I explain concretely what Nietzsche meant by the creation of art, when the artist is redlich through reference to Richard Wagner.
