Devanar el tiempo expresado en hilos de belleza,
enrollarlo en torno al alma, huso singular de lo humano,
y sentir, al hacerlo, cómo el tiempo se disuelve,
convertida su inexorable naturaleza en múltiple expresión de lo bello.
Ardua tarea que exige una entrega absoluta,
una dedicación constante, a la búsqueda, hallazgo y vivencia
de las innumerables expresiones de la belleza
distribuidas en tantos ámbitos de la realidad pasada y presente.
Medido así, en belleza hallada y sentida,
el tiempo pierde su sentido de fatalidad
para adquirir el enriquecedor sentido de posibilidad.
Poco importa que el cuerpo, sometido al imperio de la duración,
siga sufriendo los rigores de su inevitable condición caduca;
el entendimiento, y con él la sensación y la emoción,
se verán renovados de continuo, permanentemente,
ajenos a toda decrepitud y envejecimiento.
Y ello es así porque en la naturaleza de lo bello,
eco de lo divino, late el corazón de la eternidad.

Torii Kiyonaga o la delicadeza
.....Puede ser que no tuviera el talento de Utamaro, su finura o su vitalismo, pero Kiyonaga hizo gala de una mayor delicadeza. Su forma de representar las bijins enmienda y supera la ingenuidad casi infantil de Harunobu, por un lado, y se acerca a la distintiva elegancia de Utamaro, por otro (quien, a la postre, provocaría en Kiyonaga una crisis de estilo que acabaría siendo fatal para su progresión como artista). Fue, sobre todo, en la década de 1870-1880 cuando alcanzó la cima de su madurez y de ese su estilo delicado y amable. A partir de esta década, con un Utamaro ya pletórico, Kiyonaga, reconociendo el mayor talento de aquél y su propia incapacidad para sobrepujarlo, perdió fuerza, sutileza, delicadeza, entrando en una fase casi de infantilismo que lo acercaron más aún a aquel Harunobu del que al principio de su carrera intentó alejarse.
.....Esta doble expresión de su trabajo, esta dicotomía de su estilo es reconocible sólo con un vistazo superficial. Parece como si hubiera allí, en la manifestación de dos épocas del mismo artista, dos artistas diferentes. Cuesta relacionar algunas obras de su época tardía al Kiyonaga modelo de delicadeza formal y elegancia de composición de la década prodigiosa. Esto se hace más patente cuando se comparan las series de oban sobre las bijins de los barrios de placer, o las que representan diseños de moda, con esos otros alegóricos y costumbristas, más propios de un artista más limitado. Si en el mundo del arte pudiera hablarse de doble personalidad, éste sería un ejemplo ilustrativo.
.....De todas formas, sea el Kiyonaga cimero de delicadeza incomparable, sea el ingenuo y cándido de su decadencia, en todos los casos, sus bijins están dotadas de un idealismo onírico y de una armoniosa apariencia. Los rasgos de los rostros de sus hermosas mujeres son más amables y menos característicos que los de Kuniyoshi, Eishi o, sobre todo, Utamaro; también son más idealizantes, expresan más serenidad.

Términos
referentes a la Escritura
|
|
Kanji
|
Literalmente
“caracteres chinos” (de Han por China). Son los originales
caracteres empleados en la escritura japonesa, derivan del chino
original y son muy semejantes, sino iguales, a éstos.
|
Radical
|
Los
radicales son trazos o pinceladas compuestas que aparecen en
numerosos caracteres; un determinado carácter kanji suele
estar compuesto por una base radical, y de adicionales trazos o
radicales. Los diccionarios kanji están indexados por la
base radical.
|
Reading
|
Un
determinado carácter kanji habitualmente puede ser leído
de varias maneras (de ser pronunciado, y posiblemente también de
ser entendido). Un típico carácter kanji puede ser leído
de múltiples formas, en parte debido a su uso original chino
antes de ser adaptado a la escritura japonesa. Las lecturas suelen
dividirse en ondoku y kundoku, pudiendo haber más
de una forma en cada una de ellas. Así determinar cómo un
particular grupo de kanji debe pronunciarse puede resultar
decididamente complicado.
|
Ondoku
|
Literalmente
“lectura en voz alta” (abreviadamente on). Es una
lectura en la que prevalece la interpretación japonesa del
original sonido chino del carácter.
|
Kundoku
|
Literalmente
“lectura a la japonesa” (abreviadamente kun). Es una
lectura en la que es la palabra japonesa la que se atiene al
original significado del carácter en chino.
|
Tensho
|
Es una
especial y estilizada forma de los caracteres kanji; usada
principalmente en los sellos.
|
Kaisho
|
Literalmente
“escritura correcta”; es la forma estándar de los caracteres
kanji; es también la forma empleada en los materiales
impresos.
|
Gyōsho
|
Literalmente
“escritura corrida”; es una forma ligeramente libre de
escribir los caracteres kanji. Se suele hallar en el
material manuscrito. En ella los trazos individuales pueden estar
conectados (evitando levantar el pincel del papel al escribir),
usándose formas simplificadas de los radicales
|
Sōsho
|
Literalmente
“escritura en grama”; es una extremadamente estilizada y
fluida forma de escribir los caracteres kanji, encontrada
así mismo en los materiales manuscritos. Es casi una forma
abreviada de escribir (como en taquigrafía), y a menudo es
imposible relacionar los caracteres sosho con los
caracteres kanji de los que proceden.
|
Hiragana
|
Son los
caracteres del silabario japonés (pares compuestos de
vocal-consonante) usados para escribir en japonés; derivan de los
caracteres sosho de seleccionados caracteres kanji,
y son usados para escribir rápidamente.
|
Katakana
|
Son los
caracteres de un secundario silabario japonés (formados también
por pares de consonante-vocal), utilizados en una gran variedad de
usos secundarios (como escribir palabras extranjeras). Derivado de
seleccionados kanji por un proceso de simplificación
extensiva, mucho más compacta.
|
Man'yōgana
|
Es un
seleccionado kanji históricamente utilizado para la
representación fonética del japonés, cuando el japonés fue
transcrito por primera vez a escritura. Los sonidos particulares
pueden ser representados por uno de los varios kanji, la
elección de cuál a menudo se hacía por razones meramente
estilísticas o simbólicas.
|
Hentaigana
|
Literalmente
“variante kana”; es un kana distinto al usado en
hiragana y katakana. Éstos fueron estandarizados
sólo a partir de 1900; antes de ello un gran número de kana,
formas simplificadas derivadas de los kanji man'yogana,
se extinguieron. Aquellos no seleccionados para su uso en los
estándares hiragana y katakana se denominan hoy día
hentaigana. Incluyen tanto kana que derivan de
caracteres man'yogana alternativos para sonidos
particulares, como de otros que simplemente están escritos en
diferentes estilos de escritura cursiva.
|
Furigana
|
Son
caracteres hiragana escritos próximos al carácter kanjii
para indicar la correcta lectura de ese carácter.
|
Rōmaji
|
Literalmente
“carácter Romance”; es el nombre que recibe un número de
sistemas utilizados para escribir el japonés usando el alfabeto
latino, generalmente utilizado en Occidente. Actualmente, la
elección generalmente aceptada en todo el mundo es el Sistema
Hepburn Revisado, el cual permite a los anglófonos una cercanía
aproximada a la pronunciación de una palabra japonesa.
|
Kakihan
|
Literalmente
“sello manuscrito”; es un pseudo carácter usado por un
artista o artesano como firma; a menudo sumamente cursivo, en
contrapartida a los caracteres normales japoneses, los cuales
constan
de un número
determinado de trazos o pinceladas.
|
Términos
referentes a Lugares
|
|
Edo
|
Es el viejo
nombre (literalmente “puerta de la bahía” o “entrada de la
bahía”) de Tokyo. Originariamente una pequeña y oscura
población pesquera, puesta en la senda de la fama cuando Tokugawa
Ieyasu, fundador del Shogunato Tokugawa, la eligió como su
cuartel general en 1590, tras la toma de control de la región de
Kanto. Su rápido crecimiento se debió a la política de Ieyasu
en cuanto a que todos sus vasallos daimyo debían pasar la
mitad de su tiempo en Edo, lejos de sus feudos. En 1721 ya contaba
con 1.000.000 de habitantes, llegando a ser la ciudad más
populosa del mundo en aquel tiempo. Fue también la incubadora de
una vibrante cultura urbana: la de los chonin (ver más
adelante)
|
Kamigata
|
Es la región
que abarcaba Kyoto y la cercana Osaka. Este área fue el corazón
del Japón, tanto económica como culturalmente, hasta que los
Shogun Tokugawa eligieron Tokyo como sede de su gobierno. Muchos
de los componentes culturales de los chonin, como el teatro
kabuki y el ukiyo-e en su momento originados en el
área de Kamigata, se transmitieron posteriormente a Edo.
|
Kansai
|
El área más
grande en torno a Kamigata; incluía la ciudad portuaria de Kobe
(aún importante puerto) y la península de Kii, que contiene la
antigua capital de Nara, y el más importante santuario Shinto de
Japón: el Gran Santuario de Ise.
|
Kantō
|
Es la más
grande planicie de Japón, y contiene ocho provincias alrededor de
la ciudad de Edo. Es un área de ricas tierras bajas de origen
aluvial formad por el desagüe de varios ríos, y fue el granero
de arroz del Japón durante el periodo Edo. El Kanto estaba, en
cierto modo, aislada del centro principal de Japón, la región de
Kansai, pero rápidamente se convirtió, a su vez, en centro;
estatus que conserva hoy en día.
|
Kyōto
|
Literalmente
“ciudad capital”, fue durante casi once centurias la capital
imperial de Japón, y donde el emperador residía. Se fundó en
794, cuando la capital se trasladó desde su antigua localización
en Nara, vía Nagaoka, para escapar de las sectas militantes
budistas. Originalmente denominada Heian-kyo (literalmente
“capital de la paz y la tranquilidad”), de donde deriva el
nombre del periodo Heian; sería renombrada Kyoto en el
siglo XI. Respetada en gran medida durante la 2ª Guerra Mundial,
es hoy en día Patrimonio Cultural de la Humanidad.
|
Ōsaka
|
Osaka fue la
principal ciudad comercial del Japón hasta que los Tokugawa
eligieron Edo como sede del gobierno. Aún hoy es la segunda
ciudad más populosa e importante de Japón, poseyendo por en
consecuencia un gran puerto. Durante el Período Momoyama,
Toyotomo Hideyoshi (muerto en 1598), el unificador del Japón,
hizo de ella su capital.
|
Tōkaidō
|
El Tokaido
(literalmente “ruta marítima Oriental”) fue la ruta principal
del Japón feudal. Transcurría a lo largo de quinientos
kilómetros, entre la antigua capital imperial, Kyoto (donde
residía el emperador), y la capital efectiva, Edo, donde residía
a su vez el Shogun. Transcurría más o menos a lo largo de la
costa entre Edo y Nagoya, para cruzar después las montañas y
finalizar en los alrededores del extremo sur del lago Biwa, en
Kyoto.
Constaba de
cincuenta y tres estaciones (sin contar las dos termini) de
postas, provistas de alojamientos, comida, etc., toda una serie de
establecimientos para viajeros ordinarios dispuestos entre los dos
puntos extremos; muchos de los viajeros realizaban la ruta a pie,
usualmente recorriendo varias estaciones al día.
|
Tōkyō
|
Tokio
(literalmente “Capital Oriental”) es el nuevo nombre dado a
Edo tras la Restauración Meiji, cuando ésta sacó del poder al
Shogunato Tokugawa (de quienes fue capital) y el emperador se
instaló en Tokyo desde su previa residencia en Kyoto, tomando
como residencia el Castillo de Edo, la sede del poder del viejo
shogunato. El nombre cambió en 1868 para subrayar y conmemorar el
traslado desde Kyoto.
|
Tōto
|
Es un viejo
nombre alternativo (literalmente “metrópolis Oriental) para
Edo.
