	FAIR LADIES AT A GAME OF POEM CARDS
		Even the modern bunraku theatre (bunraku is a nineteenth century term which replaced joruri) recognizes the importance of the text; at the beginning of a bunraku performance, the chanter lifts the text book to his forehead as an indication of respect.
		Despite the high esteem placed on the literary text of the joruri theatre, it should not be considered to eclipse the importance of the musical accompaniment of the samisen player or the spectacle of the puppet masters.
		Joruri differs from other forms of fiction in that, since it is primarily concerned with puppets, the words must all be living and full of action É the author must impart to lifeless wooden puppets a variety of emotions, and attempt in this way to capture the interest of the audience.

	Monzaemon, Chikamatsu Criticism and Essays
		Nonetheless his preference was for joruri, and he reestablished his earlier connection with his old mentor Takemoto in 1703.
		Chikamatsu's sewamono were innovative for the joruri in their focus on contemporary events—sometimes dramatizing stories only a few weeks old—and in their focus on characters from the lower classes, sometimes merchants, often orphans and prostitutes.
		They suggest that the melodrama and excessive emotion of the written text is necessary to bring the puppets of the joruri theater to life, cautioning modern readers that of all drama joruri in particular suffers when restricted to two dimensions.

	Bunraku presented in Culture section
		A precursor of joruri can be found in the blind itinerant performers, called biwa hoshi, who chanted The Tale of the Heike, a military epic depicting the Taira-Minamoto War, while accompanying themselves on the biwa, a kind of lute.
		The name joruri came from one of the earliest and most popular works chanted in this style, the legend of a romance between warrior Minamoto no Yoshitsune and the beautiful Lady Joruri.
		It was in the merchant city of Osaka, however, that the golden age of ningyo joruri was inaugurated through the talents of two men: tayu (chanter) Takemoto Gidayu (1651-1714) and the playwright Chikamatsu Monzaemon.

	Untitled Document
		Historically, it was the fortuitous joining of two independent art forms, puppetry and joruri, that gave birth to bunraku.
		This collaboration was the beginning of bunraku, which caught the fancy of the townspeople-commoners who were low on the social ladder but who came gradually to dominate the economy, art, and material culture of the new era.
		By the mid-17th century the puppet theater was flourishing in Osaka and Kyoto, where puppeteers and chanters of joruri were reaching new heights of artistry.

	The Hidden World Of Anime
		Another probable antecedent is the joruri, or puppet theater, now more commonly called bunraku, after the name of the Osaka theater that by 1909 was the only remaining venue for performances.
		For a time, though, joruri was more popular than kabuki, with the dolls acquiring all manner of refinements during the 1730s, such as moveable eyes and articulated fingers.
		As for the influence of kabuki, just watch an anime character giving a speech or monologue and you will often see that the whole body is used to express his or her sentiments.

		Patricia Pringle explores the economic and political factors leading to construction of the "Joruri Sheataa" in the rural Nose region of Osaka prefecture, promoting the local puppet theater to the touristic public and mass media.
		In the Edo period it was on the procession route from the Japan Sea to Kyoto, but with the coming of rail transportation, its distance from rail lines isolated it from the development of Osaka and Kyoto, to the south and east.
		The joruri tradition edged out improving housing infrastructure and building leisure facilities to become the favored project.

	shinju (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The most popular theme of both kabuki and joruri was the theme of double suicide, shinju, as thwarted lovers, unable because of social restrictions to live a life together, desperately chose to kill themselves in a mutual suicide hoping to be reunited in the Pure Land of Bliss promised by Amida Buddha.
		Many of these double suicide plays involved ukiyo themes, such as the love between an upper class or noble man and a prostitute.
		Because of the tremendous social gap between the two lovers there is no chance that such a love can result in a life-long union; this is the theme of the most famous of the shinju plays was Sonezaki Shinju, by Chikamatsu Monzaemon (1653-1725).

	A Brief Introduction to the History of Bunraku
		Until this time, Chikamatu Monzaemon's work had mostly been in the Kabuki theater, working with Sakata Tojuro, the actor who created the wagoto, or soft style for which Kansai Kabuki became known.
		Drawn to Bunraku by Gidayu, Chikamatsu worked as a bridge between old-style joruri and Bunraku.
		While often keeping much of the fantasy of older tales, Chikamatsu's works are distinct for adding human elements.
