JAPANESE LITERATURE & CULTURE Tales of Idolized Boys Sachi Schmid-Hori Mak-May Baldai Namativos Roll over image to zoom in BROOKE DAVIES ASSOCIATE NARRATIVE DIRECTOR Tales of Idolized Boys: Male-Male Love in Medieval Japanese Buddhist Narratives Kindle Edition by Sachi Schmidt-Hori (Author) Format: Kindle Edition 4.5✶✶✶✶✶ 9 ratings ரூ See all formats and editions. In medieval Japan (14th-16th centuries), it was customary for elite families to entrust their young sons to the care of renowned Buddhist priests from whom they received a premier education in Buddhist scriptures, poetry, music, and dance. When the boys reached adolescence, some underwent coming-of-age rites, others entered the priesthood, and several extended their education, becoming chigo, or Buddhist acolytes. Chigo served their masters as personal attendants and as sexual partners. During religious ceremonies-adorned in colorful robes, their faces made up and hair styled in long ponytails-they entertained local donors and pilgrims with music and dance. Stories of acolytes (chigo monogatan) from the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries form the basis of the present volume, an original and detailed literary analysis of six tales coupled with a thorough examination of the sociopolitical, religious, and cultural matrices that produced these texts. Sachi Schmidt-Hori begins by delineating various dimensions of chigo (the chigo "title," personal names, gender, sexuality, class, politics, and religiosity) to show the complexity of this cultural construct-the chigo as a triply liminal figure who is neither male nor female, child nor adult, human nor deity. A modern reception history of chigo monogatari follows, revealing, not surprisingly, that the tales have often been interpreted through cultural paradigms rooted in historical moments and worldviews far removed from the original. From the 1950s to 1980s, research on chigo was hindered by widespread homophobic prejudice. More recently, aversion to the age gap in historical master-acolyte relations has Sachi Schmidt-Hori | ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR Academic Appointments > Associate Professor of Japanese Literature and Culture I am interested in investigating how gender, sexuality, corporeality, and power are represented and negotiated in pre-seventeenth-century Japanese narratives and illustrations. My first book, Tales of Idolized Boys: Male-Male Love in Medieval Japanese Narratives (University of Hawai`i Press, 2021) is on medieval chigo monogatari (Buddhist acolyte tales), which often depict romantic relationships between Buddhist priests and adolescent boys. These tales challenge a host of normative and moral standards we (academics, especially) internalize, including such ideas as "sexual orientation," "transgenerational sex," and "sexual agency." My current project is on the literary representations of "milk kinships" in pre- seventeenth Japanese tales, in cluding the Tale of Ochikubo, the Tale of Genji, the Tales of the Heike. I am also the director of the Springboard Japan Project, a multi-purpose open- access forum for Japan Studies: Springboard Japan - Dartmouth-UCSD Japan prevented scholars from analyzing the religious and political messages underlying the genre. Schmidt-Hori's work calls for a Studies Digital Project shift in the hermeneutic strategies applied to chigo and chigo monogatari and puts forth both a nuanced historicization of social constructs such as gender, sexuality, age, and agency, and a mode of reading propelled by curiosity and introspection.
