Abstract:

This paper reviews several examples of Japanese tea architecture in order to identify its specific features in the context of its historical development. Based on this, the main principles of the formation of tea architecture in Japan are defined. The analysis is conducted in relation to three main factors that influenced the formation of tea architecture: vernacular architecture, noble architecture and the philosophical ideas of Zen Buddhism. As an example, three tea houses of the master Sen no Rikyu (1522-1591) were used, namely: Kasa-tei, Shigure-tei (Todaiji Monastery, Kyoto) and Tai-an (M

Abstract The first collections of women’s biographies were produced during the Han dynasty, and a significant proportion of these focus on the empresses and senior consorts who achieved enormous power and political importance through their marriage into the imperial house. In a hereditary system in which emperors and kings inherited their positions at the top of the ruling elite from their fathers, the circumstances in which these women came to occupy positions of authority needed to be explained. For a large number of the most senior women in the imperial house, their position was also effect

The aim of the paper is to identify the estates of the aristocratic society and propose measures for their preservation.

Abstract:

Over twenty years since the influential revisionist studies of Roussel and Bourriot, agreement on a satisfactory theory of the Attic genos seems as elusive as ever. Although they differed on details, these two scholars were agreed in their rejection of the old monolithic account of the genos as aristocratic family whose institutionalized control over state cults and phratry admissions in the historical period was a relic of a wider political dominance. Roussel and Bourriot instead proposed a tripartite model according to which the formal genos-kome—a more or less localized community similar to

Abstract:

This article discusses the house as a site of memory in the novels of Margery Allingham, where it embodies a tension between the past and the present that turns the domestic milieu into a place of horror. Stemming from Susan Rowland’s claim that Golden Age authors did not write ‘unproblematically conservative country house mysteries’ (43), this paper uses Svetlana Boym’s theory of restorative and reflective nostalgia and Pierre Nora’s concept of lieux de mémoire (sites of memory) to read Allingham’s novels, which critically observe the sustainment of a vision of the past after the Great War.

Visual and cultural evidence has been prioritised in the essay which is organised around two settings: the royal court and noble country seats. As the Stirling Heads show, noblewomen formed part of the public face of the Scottish court. They also exploited their right of access to the monarch to further their own and family interests.

Family is a bridge between individual and society. In my paper, I will survey broken marriage and individual dissatisfaction in two novels by Edith Wharton. The novels in question are The House of Mirth (1905) and The Age of Innocence (1920). Edith Wharton portrays her concern by the conflict between the individuals and the social groups which they live in there. Her treatment of the family is always in association with the bourgeois society, with the ambitious stock brokers from the west. This conflict can be seen in their attitudes to love, marriage, divorce, and remarriage. In the novels, M

Abstract:

As an attractive Gothic tale of Edgar Allan Poe, The Fall of the House of Usher creates a mysterious and violent fall, leaving multiple interpretations on why the house of Usher collapsed suddenly. From the perspective of Roderick, the last inheritor of aristocratic Usher, the fall of Usher is more like his shaky nostalgia mechanism in front of discontinued situation. In his seemingly stable nostalgia mechanism, Mansion Usher, the narrator and Lady Madeline play core roles in meeting the needs of avoidance, attachment and idealization to construct a seemingly stable nostalgia mechanism.

This study employs Foucault's views on the strategies of power to analyze that the institutional world of Bleak House makes a disciplinary structure. The intrusion of these institutions in all strata of society in the novel, from the aristocratic Dedlocks to the poor area of Tom-All-Alone shapes a panoptic structure in which everyone is visible through a permanent and omniscient gaze. Under the matrix of various institutions almost all the characters in the novel, directly or indirectly, are trapped and engaged.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Political philosophers have noted that while modern democracies define dignity as universal human worth, nineteenth-century Americans conceptualized it in terms of social status and rank hierarchy. However, there was considerable tension in this period between the traditional aristocratic ideal and a more modern liberal philosophy of where this rank-based dignity came from and how someone could possess it. This article demonstrates that Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The House of the Seven Gables narrates an encounter between these two philosophies and asks whether either of them, or some comb

Historia Social, Historia de la Familia e Historia Política convergen en el presente artículo para intentar analizar cómo se forma la casa de Alba, y avanzar en su trayectoria de ascenso social desde el siglo XIII, cuando son miembros de la oligarquía toledana, hasta 1531, inicios del periodo del ducado de Fernando Álvarez de Toledo, el Grande. En ese proceso desempeña un destacado papel las alianzas matrimoniales con casas aristocráticas de más lustre (Enríquez y Benavente) y con posterioridad, especialmente en el siglo XVI, la recurrencia a matrimonios entre parientes muy cercanos en grado d

Abstract:

Opera was a spectacle reserved for the aristocratic elite during the Ancien Régime. However, the liberal revolution and the redefinition of the mechanisms of social class identity that brought with it significantly modified this space. As Théophile Gautier said, opera houses became in the nineteen century “a radiating centre, a sort of worldly cathedral of civilisation” from which to spread progress. At the same time, they constituted a privileged social space for interaction between the old nobility and the new liberal elites. This article studies the Teatro Real of Madrid as one of the most

The aim of this article is to explore the various aspects of loss in The Remains of the Day, the third novel by Japanese-English writer Kazuo Ishiguro. The theme of loss permeates the narrative, shaping the recollections of Stevens, the protagonist, who dedicated almost his entire life to serving his master, Lord Darlington. The present of the novel is set in 1956 England during a six-day motoring trip to the West Country, but the main story unfolds through the introspective narration of Stevens, the head butler of a manor house called Darlington Hall. Once in its heyday, Darlington Hall now s

Abstract:

The distribution of key administrative and military positions, such as Sang-jwapyeong, Naesin-jwapyeong, and Byeonggwan-jwapyeong, among the royal family and powerful in-laws inherently constrained the king's authority over appointments and military control. This arrangement undeniably indicates that the monarch could not truly transcend the vested interests of their kin group. Nevertheless, this power-sharing governance structure persisted. This was primarily because, in a situation where challenges to the throne from collateral branches of the royal family could not be easily controlled, it

Abstract:

Helena Potocka offers a wonderful case study because she was a perfect representative of the high European aristocracy under French influence. Educated in a Parisian religious house, she had the culture of the young girls of the nobility of Versailles. Her matrimonial alliance with the son of the Prince de Ligne poses the problem of matrimonial strategies. Helena was both a free and rebellious spirit who believed in her ability to build her happiness with the side she chose. This is why she left Charles de Ligne; she thought she had discovered her soul mate with Vincent Potocki, but in reality

Abstract:

In his classic analysis of state building by the Austrian Habsburgs in early modern Central Europe, R. J. W. Evans argues that the dynasty's eventual success in asserting its will over a conglomerate of separate, coherent territories with time-honored claims to political liberties followed the sometimes troubled trajectory of crown-aristocratic relations. The cultural impetus for political centralization was the mix of reform within the Catholic Church and counterreform measures taken against powerful Protestant subjects among the nobles and civic elites. By the 1650s the ability of Habsburg o

Abstract:

When E. M. Forster published the novel Howards End in 1910, it was at the height of ‘the inheritance society’, and the gulf between rich and poor was great and problematic; a fact that Forster was very well aware of. Yet in spite of this, the main character in Howards End, Margaret Schlegel, is a financially independent rentier living off of the wealth of her ancestors, and her wealth increases when she is named the ‘spiritual heir’ of Ruth Wilcox and thus inherits the house of Howards End. In this study, I argue that Forster shifts the focus from inherited money to inherited values in order t

The Cornelii were one of the oldest and most prestigious Roman gentes, extended family kinship groups, in Republican Rome. Various members and branches advertise some kind of connection to Jupiter, Jupiter Optimus Maximus in particular, notably Scipio Africanus, but he was certainly not the only Cornelius to do so. Numismatic evidence has long suggested some kind of claimed relationship between the Cornelii and Jupiter. The Cornelian connection to the religious office of flamen Dialis (high priest of Jupiter) is more proof that their claims to be associated with Jupiter were accepted by Roman

Abstract:

Many aristocratic Bretons acquired land possessions in England after the Norman Conquest. In the middle of the 12th century, Conan of Penthièvre, the earl of Richmond in England, inherited the Duchy of Brittany from his grandfather, and so created the dual vassal ties with the English and French crowns for his descendants. This article focuses on the war for the Breton crown (1341—1365), in which the rivals Charles of Blois and John of Montfort relied on the support of the French and English kings respectively. In 1341 John IV of Montfort recognised Edward III as his lord not only for his Engl
