内容記述 | It is widely known that the basic structure of the first part of The Tale of Genji consists of the fulfillment of the fateful prophecies of Hikaru Genji's fortunes. The present study examines the development of the tale in accordance with the prophecies in the 'Kiritsubo,' Wakamurasaki' and 'Miotsukushi' books, and addresses the questions of how the prophecies function in the narrative, how they determine the fate of the hero Hikaru Genji, and what forces underlie their fulfillment. My starting point is to question the prevailing interpretation of the Korean physiognomist's prophecy which reads the whole meaning of the prophecy from certain of its parts, linking it directly to Genji's elevation to the rank of retired emperor in the 'Fujinouraba' book, or the Kiritsubo Emperor's decision to reduce Genji to the status of commoner, etc. Against this approach, I divide the prophecy into two parts, which taken together foretell Genji's fortunes as one who bears the physiognomy of an emperor and will rise to a rank above that of a vassal. Subsequently, the dream prophecy of the 'Wakamurasaki' book, closely bound to the deep structure of the Fujitsubo affair, may be read as lending greater substance to the earlier prophecy, which foreshadows the structure of the narrative fiction. In other words, Genji 's departure for Suma is a voluntary decision prompted by Fujitsubo's discretion and Genji 's concern to see the crown prince (later Reizei Emperor) safely accede to the throne. Then, in the 'Miotsukushi' book, following Genji's recollection of an earlier astrological prohecy, we see the trnnsformation of Genji into a political figure acting (as sekkan regent) on behalf of his three children and his own fortunes. In short, Genji does not simply attend upon the fulfillment of the prophecies but works conscientiously to insure their realization. There was a limit, however, on what Genji's efforts could achieve, and the highest glory, the true meaning of the prophecy, must wait until the 'Fujinouraba' book, when he is designated a retired emperor and receives visits by the reigning emperor and Suzaku-in at the Rokujôin. In effect, Genji's career is governed by the three prophecies, but he does not wait passively for their fulfillment. The underlying principle of realization is his concerted effort together with the love of Fujitsubo and the filial piety of the Reizei Emperor. The logic of the narrative at work here appears to be the activity of the chief characters to insure that what is foretold will indeed come to pass. |
