鳴滝「身余堂」（保田與重郎邸）

It is possible to visit at a singing party. A quiet environment that does not make you feel life.

"Shinyodo" where Yojuro Yasuda spent his last years. It is on a small hill near the Emperor Montoku's tomb. Construction started in 1957 and was completed in 1933. At that time, it was in a lonely forest, and it was a famous place for men and women to meet. Design supervision is Tsuneji Ueda. He was a potter, but at the same time he was also a designer of traditional architecture. Yasuda relied on Ueda and left everything to furniture, furnishings, and tableware to Ueda for a new look. The garden is a master, Toemon Sano. The gate was relocated from Honkakuji Temple on Gojo Fuyacho-dori, and is disproportionately imposing to a private house. Yasuda loved this house and many literary and tea masters were invited. Yasunari Kawabata was one of them, and later told Takao Nakatani about "Shinyodo", "I'm envious of you. Why did you get such a place?" It is said that the name "Miyado" was taken from "What a grudge against Narutaki's stagnation for a while until it's too much to think about" in Shin Kokinshu. Yasuda was accused of preaching "the beauty of Sanka" during the war. However, Hashikawa Bunzo, who was "invaded by bones" by Yasuda, summarized in the "Introduction to Criticism of the Japanese Romans" in a painful way that squeezed blood that there was an element that tried to transcend the real nation. The time when the announcement was started was around the same time as the start of construction of "Shinyodo". In 1967, Yasuda lost his third son, Naohi. He was an active student who sympathized with Arabs and was enthusiastic about support activities. However, as soon as the Arabs were completely defeated by Israel in the First Middle East War, public opinion changed completely and became closer to Israel. I was shocked by it, and on the same day I was ready to die. Hota's disappointment was great, and he left a big scar on his heart. It was on November 25, 1970, that is, Yukio Mishima's suicide, that he finally faced the death of his son. "The next time Mishima died, I couldn't say a word about it, but I felt that there was something I could understand about Ako," he once wrote in a newspaper manuscript. Wrote. However, he hesitated when handing it over, and deleted only this part. Mishima's death was such a shock that pierced the inside of Hota deeply. That's probably why Yasuda wrote a lot of memorials for Mishima and sent an unusual compliment. It was the same that both Yasuda and Mishima had the logic of "beauty" for the "reality" of "war" and "postwar". Nevertheless, although Hota's writing was so enthusiastic, Mishima was like a transient firework. Is it because there was a time gap of more than 30 years between them? I want to know why. I referred to "Yojuro Yasuda's Life". I have memories of the book. I met the late Kyogoku Michihiro, who loved the townhouses and streets of Kyoto, and when I suddenly wanted to see Kyogoku, he was sent by courier a few days later. I heard that Mr. Kyogoku is a tough person at work, but I feel that beauty contained a message that he must endure being exposed to the eyes of many people. The heart was a kind person. I want to thank you again.
