The house nightingale

"We're used to seeing Japan among us every day by business people, tourists, manga, movies, cooking etc.. But the culture of this country there is often incomprehensible. Hayao Kawai, thanks to the characters of traditional fairy tales and myths, succeeds in an especially difficult: it comes with the wisdom of the riddle of that culture, and the same to be reflected in us temposollecita the western model of consciousness, which is possible only through a comparison with the difference.

The premise of this book is that the myths and stories related to folklore, such as fairy tales, are representations in which you can trace the fundamental coordinates of the psyche. However, Kawai says, is the diversity of expressions that depend on deep communication culture in which fairy tales belong to the point that can not be interpreted and understood the basic elements of Each one culture and analyze fairy tales from this point of view. The comparison of Japanese and Western fairy tales, can be traced to the difference between the two cultures. Hayao Kawai choose some shared items, such as "female figure" and the report "female-male", and also examines them in Japanese and Greek mythological motifs, in the Christian and monotheistic religion in the traditional polytheistic religion Shinto, which continues to live together without conflict to the next Buddhism. In this way, H. Kawai comes to single out the traits that characterize the two culturee segnanola that different approaches to reality and the different model of consciousness, urging the reader a subtle psychological reflection.

This comment is behind the cover of the book "Little House on the bird. The women's psychological between East and West "by Hayao Kawai.
The 1982 edition of this book is worth the award to H. Kawai of the prestigious Osaragi Jirosho.

I highly recommend this book because it highlights how the Japanese fairy tales are constructed differently from the West, based primarily on the psychological side of the image, embodying what the Western fairy tale is certainly not obvious. The difference arises H. Kawai fact is obvious as the end of Japanese fairy tales the fairy tale does not necessarily coincide with a happy ending. Often there is a drop, leakage, and hardly a happy marriage.
The research center has made the female figure. There are in fact represented in fairy tales such as "The Home of the Nightingale," "The woman who does not eat," "Laughter Oni", "Crane Wife" and more, all on a main character and history which revolve other characters.
If a child listening to a Western tale would expect a happy ending, a woman who marries her prince and stories where the bad guys are in any case be excluded or killed, a Japanese child is faced with such a strong image that leaves you with several question marks. The Japanese fable then hesitates and plays on people's psychological edge as if to be a subjective interpretation for those who read it.
