● ☾ 万葉集
TEN THOUSAND LEAVES
万葉集（万葉集）というタイトルを構成する漢字の直訳は「一万葉集」です。
20世紀の学者久松千一によると、この名前の主な解釈は次のとおりです。
1.たくさんの詩を集めた本；
2.すべての世代のための本;そして：
3.大量の紙を使った詩集。
これらのうち、最初の解釈の支持者はさらに次のように分けることができます。
1.中間文字を「言葉」（ことは、文字通り「言葉の葉」）と解釈し、「一万語」、つまり「多くの和歌」を与える人々は、戦楽、下光部長流、角吾妻麻郎、鴨馬口など、そして;
2.上田アキナリ、木村雅人、岡田正之、鈴木虎雄、星川清隆、中西澄など、文字通り木の葉を指すが詩の比喩として解釈する人物。
さらに、名前の2番目の解釈の支持者は次のように分けることができます。
1.それは、その作品がずっと続くべきであるという意図を表現することを意図していました（京中によって提案され、加茂実、井上道安、山田義雄、小島憲之、大久保忠が支持されました）。
2.それは天皇と皇后（堀口信信）の長寿を願うことを意味していた。
3.それは、コレクションにすべての年齢の詩が含まれていることを示すことを意図していました（山田が提案しました）。
大量の紙を使用する詩集を指すという名前の3番目の解釈は、武田雄吉が万葉集新解上で提案しましたが、武田も2番目の解釈を受け入れました。タイトルがコレクションで使用された大量の紙を指しているという彼の理論は、他の学者の間であまり注目を集めていません。
古典日本語を勉強した人として、この翻訳はかなり緩く、鈍く出てくるものは、実際には原語ではかなり微妙
この詩は万葉集��万葉集）の#947です。
須磨の海女の=スマのダイビングガール（これはジアマリであることに注意してください-5音節ではなく6音節）
塩焼き衣の=塩を燃やす服（これはマクラコトバで、別の単語を修飾するためのセットフレーズです-この場合はアマまたはダイビングガール。）
慣れないばか = 慣れ親しくなったら/慣れますか（この文脈では、服が体にしがみつくことも指します）
一日も君を=一日一日、あなた
Forgotten思はむ=忘れられない
それを翻訳して、私は次のように書きます：
私たちが親しくなったら、
塩で汚れた服がしがみつくように
スマのダイビングの女の子へ、
日に日にあなたは、
忘れないでください。
（もっと話したいのですが、翻訳に十分な時間を費やしました。ポイントは、誘惑は元の言語ではるかに微妙であるということです）
The literal translation of the kanji that make up the title Man'yōshū (万 — 葉 — 集) is "ten thousand — leaves — collection".
The principal interpretations of this name, according to the 20th century scholar Sen'ichi Hisamatsu, are:
1. A book that collects a great many poems;
2. A book for all generations; and:
3. A poetry collection that uses a large volume of paper.
Of these, supporters of the first interpretation can be further divided into:
1. Those who interpret the middle character as "words" (koto no ha, lit. "leaves of speech"), thus giving "ten thousand words", i.e. "many waka", including Sengaku, Shimokōbe Chōryū , Kada no Azumamaro and Kamo no Mabuchi,and;
2. Those who interpret the middle character as literally referring to leaves of a tree, but as a metaphor for poems,including Ueda Akinari, Kimura Masakoto, Masayuki Okada, Torao Suzuki, Kiyotaka Hoshikawa and Susumu Nakanishi.
Furthermore, supporters of the second interpretation of the name can be divided into:
1. It was meant to express the intention that the work should last for all time (proposed by Keichū, and supported by Kamochi Masazumi, Inoue Michiyasu, Yoshio Yamada, Noriyuki Kojima and Tadashi Ōkubo);
2. It was meant to wish for long life for the emperor and empress (Shinobu Origuchi );
3. It was meant to indicate that the collection included poems from all ages (proposed by Yamada).
The third interpretation of the name - that it refers to a poetry collection that uses a large quantity of paper - was proposed by Yūkichi Takeda in his Man'yōshū Shinkai jō (���葉集新解上),but Takeda also accepted the second interpretation; his theory that the title refers to the large volume of paper used in the collection has not gained much traction among other scholars.
As someone whose studied classical Japanese, this translation is pretty loose and what comes off as blunt is actually quite subtle in the language of origin
This poem is #947 from the Book of Ten Thousand Leaves (万葉集).
須磨の海女の = A diving girl from Suma (note that this is a Ji-amari - six syllables instead of five)
塩焼き衣の = Salt-Burning Clothes (This is a Makura Kotoba, a set phrase meant to modify another word - in this case the Ama or diving girl.)
慣れなばか = If we become familiar/Will we become familiar (in this context it can also refer to the clinging of clothes to the body)
一日も君を = Day on day, you will
忘れて思はむ = Not be forgotten
Translating it, I would write it as such:
If we become familiar,
like the salt-stained clothes clinging
to the diving girls from Suma,
day on day you will,
not be forgotten.
(Would talk about more, but I spent enough time translating. Point is the seduction is a lot more subtle in the original language)

Tombs of the 47 Rōnin
The Tombs of (some of) the 47 Rōnin at Sengaku-ji (near Shinagawa Station in Tokyo), in front of the tomb of their master, where they still can be visited today.
The tale of the 47 Rōnin is one of the most famous historical stories of Japan and has been adapted in countless creative works, including numeerous well known films and kabuki plays. The story is also known as the "Ako Incident" (赤穂事件, ako jiken) or "Ako Vendetta."As the story goes, 47 samurai were serving their daimyō (feudal lord) Asano Naganori, but when he was unjustly condemned, stripped of all his riches and forced to commit seppuku (ritual suicide), they were suddenly left without leader and thus became ronin (samurai without a master). While there are various reasons behind the forced suicide, they all seem to link back to the arrogant attitude of a powerful official called Kira Kozuke-no-Suke Yoshinaka, who was supposed to instruct Asano about court etiquette. The story claims that Kira became angered by Asano when he refused to offer him bribes (in some other versions, he considered the gifts offered to him to compensate his instruction were considered insufficient). Kira kept treating Asano harshly and one day, when the latter got called "country boor with no manners" by the former, Asano assaulted Kira with a dagger and mutilated his face. While Kira's wound was not serious, the attack happened in Edo Castle, were violence was completely forbidden, and for this offense, Asano was sentenced to death by seppuku. While Asano had around 300 men under his command, 47 of them—led by Oishi Kuranosuke—refused to let the incident go unavenged, even knowing that they would be punished if they acted in any way against Kira. Since they knew Kira was highly guarded and would be suspicious of them, they dispersed and for two years pretended to be regular people, such as tradesmen or monks, or even homeless drunkards. When Kira eventually let his guard down, the samurai gathered and attacked his mansion, killing him and cutting off his head.After the incident, most of the 47 rōnin were also obliged to commit seppuku. They were buried on the grounds of the Buddhist temple known as Sengaku-ji (near Shinagawa Station in Tokyo), in front of the tomb of their master, where they still can be visited today. The temple also includes a museum, called "Akogishi Kinenkan," where you can see the armor and weapons the rōnin wore to the attack. These were mostly handmade as buying them would have raised suspicions. There are also some interesting statues at the temple, including a bronze one dedicated to leader Oishi Kuranosuke, pictured while holding a scroll with the names of the 47 rōnin, and 47 mannequins dedicated to each one of the rōnin (on the second floor of the museum).

The history of the 47 rōnin, also known as 47 samurai, or Akō rōshi in Japanese, is the archetype of classical Japanese history. She is described in Japanese history books as a "national legend" where the 47 rōnin are also called the 47 gishi or Akō gishi.
The story of the 47 rōnin is not pure fiction, it is a historical fact. In 1701, in the Akō region (Hyōgo Prefecture), a group of samurai are left leaderless (ronin) after their daimyo Asano Naganori was condemned to ritual suicide (seppuku) by shogun Tokugawa Tsunayoshi. He is accused of injuring Kira Yoshinaka (1641-1703), master of ceremonies in the shogun's house, who had insulted him.
The 47 Rōnin decide to avenge him by killing Kira. After patiently waiting and planning the attack for nearly two years, the attack takes place on December 14, 1702 (Japanese calendar, or January 30, 1703 Gregorian calendar). The 47 had the right to keep their honor by ritual suicide for murder and executed themselves on February 4, 1703. They all knew the consequences of their act and that is why their action is considered particularly honorable.
Somewhat embellished, this story has found its place in Japanese popular culture, through the values of loyalty, sacrifice, dedication and honor that every Japanese was supposed to draw from in their daily lives. This popularity has seen a comeback with the rapid modernization of the Meiji era, which pushed traditions, and where many people were looking to find some of their lost roots.
Sengaku-ji's Cemetery is still in existence. There you see the well, the basin where Kira's head was washed, as well as Asano's tomb and the 48 stars set and lined up under the trees. Three centuries later, many Japanese still come to burn incense sticks on these graves to honor the memory of the Ronin. The theme remained popular: in the 1997-2007 decade alone, Japanese television dedicated ten productions to this epic.

14 December, 1702
On this day in 1702, one of the most famous episodes in Japanese history took place, an event which is now universally referred to as the Forty-Seven Rōnin Incident, also known as the Akō incident (赤穂事件 Akō liken) or Akō vendetta. https://youtu.be/b6_kbydqEuE
The 18th-century historical event refers to a band of rōnin (leaderless samurai) who avenged the death of their master, Asano Naganori, lord of Ako, who was forced to commit ritual suicide following an earlier attack on Kira Yoshinaka, in grave breach of protocol, at the shogun's court in Edo.
A noted Japanese scholar has described the tale as the best known example of the samurai code of honour, bushidō, and as the country's "national legend."
Shown here is 1926 lithograph (from my personal collection of Japanese art) - known as "The 47 Rōnin Memorial Portrait" - which shows all of the participants in the legendary attack.
There are, of course, many other depictions of the historical event in ukiyo-e form by the likes of Utagawa Toyokuni (歌川豊国; 1769– 1825), usually referred to as Toyokuni I; Katsushika Hokusai (葛飾北斎, 1760-1849), Utagawa Hiroshige (歌川 広重, 1797-1858), Utagawa Kunisada (歌川 国貞; 1786 – 1865), also known as Utagawa Toyokuni III (三代 歌川 豊国), and so on.
A number of successful films have, naturally, also been made detailing the Forty-Seven Rōnin Incident, the first of which was directed in 1912 by Makino Shozo.
For anyone in Japan who is interested in such things, it is still actually possible to make a visit to the site of the graves of the forty-seven Rōnin (四十七士 Shi-jū-shichi-shi), ranging in age from fifteen to seventy-seven, which are located at Sengaku-ji (泉岳寺), a Sōtō Zen Buddhist temple in the Takanawa neighbourhood of Minato-ku, near Sengakuji Station and Shinagawa Station, in Tokyo.

The Night Attack, Part 6: Offering Incense (Youchi roku, shoko ba), from the series "The Revenge of the Loyal Retainers (Chushingura)", Utagawa Hiroshige, 1829, Art Institute of Chicago: Asian Art
Going beyond the play, Hiroshige closes his series by showing the ronins’ arrival at the Temple of Sengaku-ji, a temple that still stands today in the southern district of Tokyo. Here, the ronin are met by the abbot of the temple. After prayers, evidence of Kira’s death will be placed at Asano’s tomb. The forty-seven retainers will eventually be buried in a quadrangle adjacent to their master’s monument. Frederick W. Gookin Collection Size: 24.6 x 36.3 cm (9 11/16 x 14 5/16 in.)
