Just as the aesthetic ideal of yugen, literally, "depth and darkness," in Noh is personified as Woman, with the Third Class, or "wig plays," thought to exemplify this quality, passages of lament or complaint known as kudoki literally ,"word explaining," which characterize people in distress or under duress, are usually manifested in female guise. The play is most commonly of the Fourth Class and deals with kurui, or "frenzy. "The drama, Sumidagawa, stands as a good example. The roots of kudoki may be traced to the expression of deeply felt feeling in the myth of the forsaken and later angry Toyotamahime, whose child Hoderi no mikoto fathered, in the Kojiki and Nihon shoki. Kudoki may be related to a category of linkage known as jukkai, or the expression of personal distress or grievance in linked poetry. Application of the idea and form of kudoki may be found in traditional Japanese literature till the Meiji Restoration, and even afterward, as an example from Kyokutei Bakin's bestknown romance, Nansô Satomi hakkenden (Satomi and the Eight "Dogs") reveals. Kudoki, it may be argued, lies at the heart of the literary expression of poignancy.}, pages = {48--59}, publisher = {国文学研究資料館}, title = {研究発表 日本文学における感情の表現 ―謡曲『隅田川』の「クドキ」の小段}, year = {1987}, yomi = {ゾルブロッド, レオン} }
