在明治后期的日本,政治思想围绕着一个基本的愿景,即日本群岛的地理位置为思想家们提供了证据,证明日本人民与海洋之间的文化纽带可以追溯到原始时代,并向前延伸到不可预知的未来。公共知识分子希望建立日本海洋的根源,转向前堕落时代的深处。作家高田罗汉将日本的海上身份追溯到现存最早的诗歌和记录的民族神话。翻译家兼评论家木村孝太郎将日本的海洋精神集中在古代神话、故事和祈祷的深处。两人都将神话视为一种媒介,提供进入日本海洋身份所基于的经验视野的途径。在神话般的大海的沃茨中,他们发现了一个文化差异的空间,历史的力量威胁着他们。
In late Meiji Japan, political thought coalesced around an elemental vision in which the geography of the Japanese archipelago offered thinkers evidence of a cultural bond between the Japanese people and the sea that extended backwards into primordial times and forward into an inscrutable future. Public intellectuals looking to establish the roots of Japanese oceanic being turned to the depths of prelapsarian times. The writer Kōda Rohan traced Japanese maritime identity to the earliest extant poetry and recorded myths of the nation. Kimura Takatarō, a translator and critic, centered Japanese oceanic spirit in the depths of ancient myth, tales, and prayer. Both envisioned myth as a medium that offered access to a horizon of experience in which Japanese oceanic identity was grounded. In the waters of the mythical sea, they discovered a space of cultural difference from which the forces of history threatened to estrange them.
