2020 도쿄올림픽 개막식을 예로 든 일본고전문화문학 교육방안 -에도시대 '이키'와 '이나세'의 미학을 중심으로-

Abstract

Japan is preparing for the "Cool Japan Project," a state-led project, to enhance Japan's "soft power." "Cool Japan" is a strategy to appeal to the world by seeing everything that the Japanese have found to be "cool" even though they have not yet recognized it. The Japanese aesthetics found in "Cool Japan" was "Iki" from the Edo period. "Iki" gradually expanded its meaning from a word that expresses the beauty of a woman to a word that means cool, such as modern "cool." The aesthetics of a masculine image that "Iki" cannot contain all are expressed in the word "inase." In the Edo period, "Dobie", "Hikesh" and Kabuki learning were recognized as symbols of "Iki and Inase," and tattoos such as "Dobie" and "Hikesh" also became symbols of "Inase". Ichikawa Danju, the representative of the Kabuki actor, was considered the god of Naritafudo, and his acting of nirami was considered to be the same as Naritafudo's spirituality, which cured all diseases. The aesthetics of popular art and culture in the Edo period led to the opening ceremony performance of the Tokyo Olympics. That's why Tobi and Hikeshi made the Olympic mark and Shibaraku performances by Ichikawa Danjuro were held. When explaining to students the justification and reason for knowing Japanese classical cultural literature, this will serve as an example of what causal relationships and contacts they currently have with Japanese culture and literature. Projects to increase Japanese soft power, such as the Cool Japan Project, are ongoing. Therefore, it is expected that 'Iki' and 'Inase' will continue to be expressed in various areas in the future. Education on Edo popular culture can be said to be an essential keyword for Japanese culture education.
