[edit]DescriptionChiushingura - 1908 Legend in Japanese Art, p.256.jpg |
English: From book:
Legend in Japanese art : a description of historical episodes, legendary characters, folk-lore myths, religious symbolism illustrated in the arts of old Japan, 1908. Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/legendinjapanese00joly_1/page/n25/mode/2up Henri Joly [1839-1925] Text p.292: Chiushingura & The celebrated story of the Forty-Seven Ronins, also called the revenge of Asano, or The Loyal League, is well known; it has been dramatised, and its episodes are the subject of numerous sets of prints and illustrations of all kinds. Amongst the English translations are those of F. Y. Dickins, the extensive story given in Mitford's Tales of Old Japan, and the version published in Japan by Murdoch, with illustrations by Ogawa (q.q.v.). The gist of the story is as follows: Asano Takumi no Kami (Yenya in the play) had been appointed to receive the ambassadors from the Emperor to the Shogun. His instructor in court etiquette, Kira Kotsuke no Sure (Moronao in the play), so persistently insulted him that he had to draw his sword in the palace. Such an offence was punishable with death, and he was therefore obliged to commit seppuku in April, 1701. His principal retainer and counsellor, Oishi Kuranosuke, and forty-six of his companions thus becoming ronins , swore to avenge their dead master, and after many troubles succeeded in slaying Kotsuke no Sure, after which they all committed harakiri (1706). Their graves in the cemetery of Sengakuji receive every mark of respect to this day. |
