| 抄録 | This article examines Higashi Honganji’s famous hair ropes in the context of shifting understandings around the place of the material body in religion. It suggests that the ropes drew on a premodern religious repertoire in which hair was recognized as a material form of both personality and generative power; hair donation thus allowed female donors to incorporate themselves into the space of the temple by participating in its construction. It presents the temple as using the ropes in a variety of ways to distinguish that sacred space from the disenchanted world of the modern marketplace. Finally, it argues that modernist understandings of religion as properly disembodied have shaped contemporary efforts to deemphasize the materiality of the ropes, effacing the presence of the bodies of female donors in the process. |
