An Image of Power in Transition
This essay discusses the mounted image of St. George slaying an emperor within the broader context of how and why early Christian images were transformed and adapted to the early Byzantine religious style. The representational framework of Arthur Danto's philosophical system is used to tie together the threads of this research. By drawing parallels between changes in contemporary art and culture -often referred to as the modern/postmodern shift -…

Fictions of Desire
Stephen Snyder examines Kafu's fiction in terms of narrative strategy, placing him squarely within some of the most important currents of literary modernism--at the nexus of Naturalism and the largely antithetical development of the modernist reflexive novel
A Tokyo Anthology
The city of Tokyo, renamed after the Meiji Restoration, developed an urban culture that was a dynamic integration of Edo's highly developed traditions and Meiji renovations, some of which reflected the influence of Western culture. This wide-ranging anthology-including fictional and dramatic works, essays, newspaper articles, political manifestos, and cartoons-tells the story of how the city's literature and arts grew out of an often chaotic and …
Shifts in Surgical Revascularization and Valve Procedures Among Medicare Beneficiaries
BACKGROUND: The rapid development of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has reduced the demand for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. We examined whether the previously documented declining demand for CABG and expanding PCI use are associated with changes in performance of valve (aortic or mitral) replacement or repair surgery. METHODS: We used Medicare Part A administrative data to identify beneficiaries who received PCI, CABG…
The Effect of Income on Mortality
Legislation in the 1970s created a Notch in social security payments, with those born after January 1, 1917, receiving sharply lower benefits. Using restricted-use versions of the National Mortality Detail File combined with Census data, we use this quasi experiment to examine the income mortality link in an elderly population. Estimates from difference-in-difference and regression discontinuity models show the higher-income group has a statistic…

Fictions of Desire
The Similitude of Blossoms
Mishima Yukio
Fictions of Desire
The literary career of Nagai Kafu is generally seen as an act of nostalgia, the quintessential return to Japan in the form of a long search for the traditional past in a rapidly modernizing Tokyo. Kafu is best known as a lyrical writer of elegies to a vanished Tokyo, whose work is stylistically rich yet lacks intellectual depth. Rather than focus on the writer's lyricism and imagery as other critics have done before him, the author examines Kafu'…
Oe and Beyond
This text surveys the accomplishments of Nobel Prize winner Oe Kenzaburo and other writers of the post-war generation, while looking further to examine the literary parameters of the post-Oe generation. It includes essays on Endo Shusaku, Hayashi Kyoko, Kanai Mieko, Kurahashi Yumiko, Murakami Haruki, Murakami Ryu, Nakagami Kenji, Oe Kenzaburo, Ohba Minako, Shimada Masahiko, Takahashi Takako and Yoshimoto Banana
Oe and beyond
A Healing Family
Born 33 years ago with a brain deformity, Hikari Oe, son of Kenzaburo Oe, Nobel Prize Laureate for Literature, has, despite autism and other handicaps, become an established composer with two successful CDs to his credit.

Ogai and the Problem of Fiction. Gan and Its Antecedents
IN this way Nagai Kafu describes one of the more noted, and perhaps most noteworthy, moments in the history of modern Japanese literature: Mori Ogai's AA,fi rejection of original fiction with contemporary settings in favor of historical narrative. Okitsu Yagoemon no Isho ^ marked the beginning of a new phase in Ogai's career, Gan Jf the end of an old. But Gan was not created in a vacuum: it is the summation of Ogai's long career as a writer of fi…

Tom Dardis. Some Time in the Sun. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1976.274 pp. Since the 1930's when serious writers first migrated to Hollywood, the popular phrase to describe their exodus has been that of "selling out." In the popular eye the movie empire has been envisioned as a prurient Mammon unconscionably exploiting and ruining the literary artists drawn to her by the lure of great lucre. This view was conventionalized by Edmund Wilson …
