The vendetta of the Akô ronin, however, was reported in one utterly non-committal line, and their seppuku was not even mentioned.
He argues that the vendettas of the Soga Brothers and the 47 Ronin were both attempts to appease the vengeful spirits (onryô) of their dead masters (or father in the Soga case), drawing on Japanese folklore research on onryô.
It might be argued that the two words "Kanadehon" and "Chûshingura" imply two different vectors in the interpretation of the Akô vendetta, with the former emphasizing the individuality and sense of honor of each the 47 separate retainers, and the latter implying their unity as a band loyal to a single lord.

 Chushingura Text
On the snowy night of January 30, 1703, in an incident known as the Ako vendetta, forty-six samurai burst into the mansion of the man responsible for the death of their former master, Asano Naganori, the lord of Ako.
The vendetta served as the basis for what is without doubt the most famous and popular work of the traditional Japanese theater, Kanadehon Chushingura (The Treasury of Loyal Retainers: A Model for Emulation).
Therefore, the theatrical version of the Ako vendetta was set in the days of the fourteenth-century shogun Takauiji; Asano, Kira, and Oishi became Enya, Moronao, and Oboshi, and the setting of the play was changed from Edo to Kamakura.

The Ako Incident of 1701-1703 is universally regarded as an archetypal vendetta and the forty-six ronin as exemplary "righteous warriors." But the incident was actually the subject of a noisy debate that began within months of the suicide of the forty-six Ako men and raged for over a century and a half.
Yamaga Soko and the Forty-Seven Ronin Vendetta of 1703
Accounts of the Ako incident of 1703 often relate that Yamaga Soko, philosophical pioneer of the Ancient Learning movement and formulator of a system called the "Way of the Samurai" (shido), once taught Ako samurai, implying that shido somehow informed their behavior in the vendetta.

In 1701 the shogun chose Lord Asano of the Ako domain to chaperone two representatives of the imperial household during their annual visit to Edo.
He was told to seek instruction in the complex protocols associated with such a visit from Moronao, one of the shogun’s ministers.
By 1706 the Osaka playwright Chikamatsu Monzaemon was incorporating parts of the vendetta tale into his puppet (bunraku) plays, avoiding censorship by recasting the tale into an earlier era and changing the names of the main characters.

 RETHINKING THE STORY OF THE 47 RONIN:
The way to a greater historicity may have been paved by the kôdan tradition and its stronger sense of the actual event―particularly in the use of the historical names of the participants―but the line between history and fiction remained one that was never openly contested.
Less than a year after the publication of Genroku kaikyo roku, however, the historiography of the Akô Incident entered a new era with the publication of the documentary collection Akô gijin sansho (3 vols.), which had first been assembled by Nabeta Shôzan, a samurai antiquarian from Taira (Fukushima prefecture) in the late Edo period.
In this way, Maruya continued an older tradition of seeing the Akô vendetta as essentially directed against the bakufu, but he now gave it an even more sinister and seditious sense.

Romeo Capulong, United Nations Judge ad litem, said that while the DAR’s recommendation is an initial but landmark victory in the long quest for social justice of the farmer-beneficiaries of Hacienda Luisita, there should be immediate provisional remedies to ensure the effective implementation of the decision.
