	Sugawara Denju Tenarai Kagami Introduction
		According to legend, Sugawara no Michizane (845-903), one of two principal ministers at the imperial court in Kyoto and a master of calligraphy, was exiled by the emperor in 901 to Dazaifu in Kyushu, where he died.
		Sugawara’s hat falls off, in what is seen as an ill omen, and Shihei falsely accuses Sugawara of coveting the throne via the marriage of Kariya to Tokiyo.
		The gradual convergence of the plots involving Sugawara and the triplets (including the supernatural elements and omens that demonstrate the loyalty of the triplets to Sugawara) climaxes in the “The Village School” Scene.

	Sugawara no Michizane and the Early Heian Court (1986)
		Ostensibly a biography of Sugawara no Michizane (845-903), Borgen's study is a much more ambitious cultural and political history of Japan during the period under study.
		Michizane, whose name will be familiar to all readers interested in Japanese history, poetry, or religion, was indeed a remarkable person, whose achievements cannot be wholly attributed to the legends that grew following his deification.
		Born to a minor aristocratic family that had only recently acquired the surname Sugawara, Michizane followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather to become a well educated scholar, and a professor of literature at the university in Heian.

		Re: Sugawara no Michinaze in Exile: Masanobu and Toyokuni
		For example, Michizane was said to have been especially fond of a beloved plum tree in his garden — his farewell poem written upon his forced exile is used in the play ‘Sugawara denju tenarai kagami’ ("A Mirror of the Transmission and Learning of Sugawara’s Secrets of Calligraphy").
		The play was obviously very popular (I understand that Sugawara no Michinaze was not only a stateman of the IXth century respected for his moral rectitude, but is also revered in effect as a deity of calligraphy), and several artists have illustrated this play.

		The point is that they failed, but failed 'sincerely' and 'gloriously.' Some Japanese go misty eyed at this point and mention kamikaze pilots & cherry blossoms and acknowledge wistfully that things have changed, presumably meaning that people no longer fail like they used to do.
