ビルマの建国神話について Essay on the Founding Myth of the Traditional Kingdom of Burma Tamura, Katsumi 田村, 克己 タムラ, カツミ ビルマ｜王権｜建国神話｜仏教｜女性｜宇宙領域 Burma｜kingship｜founding myth of the kingdom｜buddhism｜woman｜cosmological realms This article examines the legitimation of kingship in the traditional kingdom of Burma by analysis of its founding myth, recorded in written form in the chronicles. Part III of the Glass Palace Chronicle, "Hmannan- Maha-Yazawin", includes many myths of various motifs as well as versions of the same motif, and its story unfolds from the creation of the world to the making of the human world, passing through two tales of visiting on another world by the founders of the Thayehkettaya dynasty, which imply the change over from nature to culture by their representation of the incest motif. The Chronicle also repeats the theme of the hero, the founder of a new dynasty as well as a usurper: an ideology which contradicts the idea of succession through legitimate lineage. This ideology of succession based on royal blood is paralleled by another based on karma, the wheel of fortune in Buddhist thinking. In the myths these ideologies are reconciled by woman, a mediator, albeit an ambivalent one. The woman in the myth is also related to the representation of indigenous people and their power. departmental bulletin paper 国立民族学博物館 National Museum of Ethnology 1996-03-29 VoR application/pdf 国立民族学博物館研究報告 4 20 607 645 Bulletin of the National Museum of Ethnology AN00091943 0385-180X https://minpaku.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/4183/files/KH_020_4_001.pdf https://doi.org/10.15021/00004175 http://hdl.handle.net/10502/3118 https://minpaku.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/4183 jpn
