Bozkurtların Ölümü

***Bozkurtların Ölümü***, Nihal Atsız'ın Maltepe'de 13 Nisan 1946'da tamamladığı Göktürk Kağanlığı tarihinden bir bölümü ve Kür Şad Destanı'nı anlattığı romanıdır.

Roman, üniversiteli bir grup gencin bir arada sohbet ederken içlerinden edebiyatçı olanın hikâyeyi anlatmasıyla başlar. Eser, *Bozkurtlar Diriliyor* romanının ilk bölümü niteliğindedir.

## Konusu

Yapılan savaşlar ve birleşen boylar ile Göktürkler oldukça zenginleşirler. Fakat Çin Tang Hanedanlığı boş durmaz. Çuluk Kağan'ın Çinli hatunu İ-Çin Hatun kağanı ağular. Yerine geçen yeni kağan Kara Kağan da aynı hatunu alınca içten kırılmalar başlar.

Çuluk Kağan'ın küçük oğlu Kür Şad ve yandaşları baştan beri bu Çinli hatuna karşı kin beslerler. Fakat kağana karşı bir saygısızlık etmek, törelere aykırıdır. Çinli hatunun kardeşi de Türk ilinde çaşıtlık (casusluk) yapar ve Türklerin ahlakını bozar.

Zamanla güçsüzleşen Göktürkler Çin'e yapılan son seferde yenilir ve esir düşerler. Uzun yıllar süren esarette Çin'in baskılarına rağmen kimliklerini yitirmeyen Kür Şad ve 40 yandaşı Çin'de ihtilal çıkarırlar. Çin sarayını basarak bağımsızlık arzularını haykırırlar.

İhtilal (Siganfu baskını) sırasında kaçan Kür Şad'ın konçuyu ve oğlu ileride kurulacak ikinci Göktürklerin tohumları olacaklardır. Kür Şad ve 40 çeri, kanlarının son damlasına kadar savaşırlar ve adlarını tarihe yazdırırlar. Ruhları Tanrı Dağı'na varır ve orada diğer Türk kahramanları beklerler.

Overlord

**Overlord** is a pre-certed UK VHS released by EMI on the 20th century. It got re-released by Thorn EMI Video on October 1981.

## Description

The combination of newsreel footage and specially shot dramatic action is not a new cinematic idea. French film-makers, in particular, have used the technique to great effect in such films as Nuit et Brouillard ( Night and Fog) made by Alain Resnais in 1953, and Jean-Luc Godard's Les Carabiniers in 1963. But this juxtaposition of real-life film and fiction has never been so successfully carried off as in Stuart Cooper's brilliant and memorale Overlord (1975). It succeeds in being both an exciting and moving war film in the best traditions of the British film industry as well as continuing the high standards set by the one film genre which Britain can rightly lay claim to as her own - the documentary movement.

In effect, the film tells the simple story of one young man Tom (Brian Stirner) from the time of his call-up in 1944 to his untimely death during the Normandy invasion on D-Day. The story itself is a familiar one, but director Stuart Cooper and Christopher Hudson's fresh screenplay invest it with a powerful dramatic impact; the early scenes of Tom's basic training, with the confused hero totally bewildered by the ordeals and rituals of army life, come up with sparkling and uncliched. Careful casting, with unkown faces adding a strong sense of documentary realsim to the proceedings, gives these early sequences considerable power. Every part of the film carries complete conviction: the protagonists all appear to be real people. However, while the story is a strong one, Overlord scores as a major piece of film-making through excellent use of World War II newsreel sequences from the Imperial War Museum, combined with specially shot shot fictional scenes. The juxtaposition brilliantly spans thirty years and there are none of the abrupt changes in mood or, more importantly, pictorial quality, usually associated with this particular technique. Through painstaking research and selection and, above all, an instinctive knowledge of what will work, Stuart Cooper has achieved an impressively intergrated documentary drama that can stand both as a first rate war movie and as a genuine advance in movie making. Overlord is a film that can be enjoyed on many levels - and more than once.

## Summary

Mao and Otoya leave the historical shopping street through the gate on the other end, with Nanoka chasing after their rickshaw. It turns out this world is Taisho Era Tokyo - May 8th 1923, to be exact. They go to a Milk Hall to discuss a string of headless corpse murders that is plaguing the city.

* Haimaru *(flashback)*

* Spider Woman

## Trivia

* The signs on the shop on the title page read: "カバン" = Bags. "靴"= Shoes.
* Rickshaws were independently invented in Japan circa 1869, after the lifting of a ban on wheeled vehicles from the Tokugawa period. "Rickshaw" comes from the Japanese word "jinrikisha" which literally means "human-powered vehicle". The vehicle had a wooden carriage that rode on "superior Western wheels" and was a dramatic improvement over earlier modes of transportation. By 1872, they had become the main mode of transportation in Japan.
* Nanoka left her era on May 8th 2019, to enter the Taisho era on May 8th 1923.
* The buildings on the main street are, from right to left: (1) Ginro Beer / Masahi Beer; (2) Seiyou Kissashitsu (Western Coffee Room); (3) Kudamono (Fruit) – Takai Seikaten (Takai Greengrocers); (4) Abe Keshouhin (Abe Cosmetics).
* Other signs on the main street are: (1) On the pole: Tobe Barbershop; Cosmetics Oda; (2) Flags: Erisu Beer; Ramen; Takeyama.
* Viscount: Like other major Western noble titles, "Viscount" is sometimes used to render certain titles in non-Western languages with their own traditions, even though they are, as a rule, historically unrelated and thus not 'equivalent' in relative rank. In Japanese, *Shishaku* (子爵) or Shi is the fourth of the five peerage ranks established in the Meiji era, based both on the British viscount and Zhou Chinese *zi.*

Edebiyat Wikia

**Edebiyat** veya **yazın**; olay, düşünce, duygu ve hayalleri dil aracılığı ile estetik bir şekilde ifade etme sanatıdır. Daha kısıtlayıcı bir tanımla, edebiyatın; bir sanat formu olarak oluşturulan yazılar olduğu düşünülmüştür. Bunun nedeni, günlük kullanımdan farklı olarak edebiyatın, dil ürünü olması etkilidir. Edebiyatın, Hint-Avrupa dil ailesinde kullanılan kelime karşılıkları Latince literatura/litteraturadan türevlendirilmiştir. Literatura/litteratura ise Latincede mektup ve el yazısı anlamına gelen littera kelimesinden türemiştir. Edebiyat, genellikle yazılı ürünler için kullanılan bir terim olmasının yanında, aslında sözlü ürünleri de kapsayan bir genişliğe sahiptir. Bu şekilde yazılı olmayan ve halk anlatımlarıyla yaşayan edebiyata sözlü edebiyat adı verilmektedir. Edebiyat, kurgu veya gerçek algı temelinde sınıflandırılabilir. Yine edebî eserlerin tasnifindeki bir diğer ölçüt mevcut eserin manzum ya da nesir olmasıdır. Bu temel ölçütlerin yanında edebî eserler, büyüklük formlarına göre de farklı ulamlarda toplanır. Örneğin hikâye, roman, kısa öykü veya drama birbirinden uzunluk kısalık ilişkisiyle de ayrılabilir. Bunların yanında, tarihsel süreç içerisinde edebiyatın sınıflandırılmasında estetik ve tür-şekil ilişkisinin de dikkate alındığı gözlemlenmektedir.

Zaman içerisinde edebiyat kavramı büyük bir değişim geçirmiştir. Bugün için edebiyat, yazılı olmayan sözlü sanat formlarını da kapsamaktadır. Son yıllarda sanal ortamın gittikçe yaygınlaşmasıyla, edebiyatın yeni bir kolu olan e-ortam edebiyatı ortaya çıkmıştır.

Also, the toad youkai resembles Tsukumo no Gama, a minor character in *Inuyasha*.

The three stands with offerings at the back are called sanpo. To the left are three sake barrels festooned with shide (zigzag paper), as well as two rice straw barrels.

Immoral Tales

**Immoral Tales** is a UK VHS release by Thorn EMI Video on April 1982.

## Description

How often, as a critic, have I hears the complaint: 'Why can's anyone make an artistic sex film?' My answer is always the same: 'Go ans see one by Walerian Borowczyk.' Borowczyk (pronounced Borof-chick!) is a Polish director who now lives in France and has, in recent years, made one 'scandalous' film after another. *Immoral Tales*, made ib 1973, was the first of these. And I suppose it is scandalous if you think erotic imagery shouldn't be allowed in case it makes rampaging maniacs of us all. But Borowczyk isn't just controversial. He is also one of the great cinematic image-makers if his time -- a film-maker who can invest either a crowded scene or the tinies detail with extraordinary visual power. *Immoral Tales*, though it did cause a scandal (and attendances) when it first opened in Paris, also won the coveted L'Age D'Or award, named after the great Buñuel surealist masterpiece.

The film consists of four stories, The Tide set in this century, and Thérèse the Philosopher, Erzsébet Báthory and Lucrezia Borgia in past times. The eroticiam of eachof them is neither immoral nor gratuitous, but certainly obsessive and compeling. Each is also at times darkly threatening, at times richly comic. Lucrezia Borgia, for instance, is a spiteful atack on religous hypocrisy, and Erzsébet Báthory a hymn to the beauty of young womanhood which conceals a killing worm within its rose. Borowczyk's vision is not everybody's, but the power of his images is such that you can't ignore it. He is a real artist, choosing to work on ground where most angels fear to tread and hacks frequently play. *Immoral Tales* is pure cinema, whatever you may think of its themes.

Hyakka

## Name

**Hyakka** (百火) is a former classmate of Mao from 900 years ago.

## Biography

### History

*Hyakka was an apprentice 900 years ago, then worked in a circus, but he now travels with Mao and Nanoka.*

## Appearance

He wears an eyepatch and has same hair colors as Mao — black and white. Hyakka is usually seen wearing a strange kimono with a flame-like design on the pants.

## Personality

Hyakka is a fiery and hot tempered boy who strives for attention and others’ admiration, as seen when he wants praise from Nanoka. He’s laid back most of the time, but will get down to business when needed. He also doesn’t fear death, as seen when he shouts, “I almost died there!” To which Otoya replies nonchalantly, “You DID die.”

## Relationships

Mao
*Hyakka was one of the apprentices, along with Mao. While Hyakka did start training first, he was the one to cling onto Mao. During their time at the clan, Hyakka and Mao formed a relationship that’s best described as close brothers — Hyakka claiming to be the older one, albeit that he’s younger. Hyakka was called to the five sided temple to curse Mao to death. Now, they travel together and often fight side-by-side after about 900 years apart.*

Nanoka Kiba
*He often strives for her admiration, and he sometimes instructs Otoya to tell Nanoka what a hero is is. A few times, he saves Nanoka, but can’t bring out his powers’ full potential without harming her.*

Kamon
*Hyakka was one of the apprentices, along side Kamon. Both Hyakka and Kamon were called to the five sided temple to curse Mao to death. Now they appear to have a wordless truce, and although there seems to be a bit of tension, the two frequently side with Mao on the same team.*

Sana
*Hyakka was an apprentice at the clan’s training grounds that Sana’s family owned.*

## Quotes

*“I almost died there!” - Hyakka*

”You DID die.” - Otoya

## Trivia

* The Kanjis for his name 百火 stand for "100" and "fire".
* He’s sometimes referred to as ‘Hatsuka’, which is likely a mistranslation.

Yoriko

## Name

**Yoriko** (依子) is a girl who got hooked on the Shourin religion led by Shōko.

## Biography

She was living in a bankrupt dojo with her father who did not approve her being part of the sect and called Shōko a fraud. As Shōko predicted right after his criticism that he would die in 3 days, she desperately tried to convince him in hope of saving him.

The sect’s second in command Sōgen gave her what he claimed to be a medicine that would purify his father’s heart and reflect any curse, to which she put in his sake and she got him to drink it, but her father died nonetheless 3 days later just as predicted.

Believing he was cursed to death by Shōko as punishment, she grew extremely fearful and returned to the sect. She was given a room as she was going to live in the church and was to officially transfer the rights to her father’s dojo to the sect, but Mao who came to investigate took her away to Tenko’s restaurant where she rethinks everything.

After Sōgen and Shōko get arrested, she learns that the medicine was not poison, but sleeping medicine which made her father fall into deep sleep and Sōgen killed him using a poison needle, and she felt stupid to have believed in this whole sham. As Mao consoles her, she started falling for him, but Tenko warned her that his tastes are hard to match.

Shōko

## Name

**Shōko** (鐘呼) is a psychic and the head of a religious sect.

## Biography

### History

When she was a child, she was a small-time fortune-teller and her visions were strong, allowing her to find lost items, missing children and even predicting the death of a drunkard. But as she grew older, she could see less, but in contrast, she gained more followers and her sect became a large community. That is because her father Sōgen was ambitious and went as far as spreading rumors that his daughter could control someone’s lifespan and used trickeries to convince believers of that rumor, and she got along with his scams, for she could currently predict the "end of the world" and thus hoped to save as much people as possible.

### Plot

She predicted the death of the father of a devotee named Yoriko, which led people to believe she cursed him for calling her a sham. That rumor reached Mao who deduced she might have met the Byouki and learned that ability of controlling someone’s lifespan from him and decided to investigate on her. As Nanoka and Otoya who infiltrated her temple explore the cellar, she locked them in, but then she learns that Yoriko disappeared, but as Sōgen would not tell her what is going on, she grows suspicious of him for she noticed that some other believers who had lost their parents and donated their land and fortune to the sect mysteriously disappeared, and she follows him back to the cellar where he confronts Mao who rejoined Nanoka and Otoya who got out and asks him about the book of curse they found which he likely stole, and she admits to Mao not having the ability to control lifespan and presumes that Sōgen killed the ones whose deaths were predicted and the believers who grew suspicious, to which he was forced to confirm by Mao.

She turns herself in, but as she is being led away in handcuffs, she shouts to her followers that they should all leave the capital for the ground will split and a massive tornado of fire will engulf it, to which Nanoka recognizes as the Great Kanto Earthquake.

## Lyrics

I found you

I found you

This journey’s come to its end

And now I’m there for you

I don’t know if you’re still my friend

I’ve crossed the seas

I’ve tracked through wilds

I’ve fought off monsters fair

But every castle I approached

My princess was not there

I found you

I found you

There’s so much to be said

But now I’m there for you

The words bring only dread

My shoulders ache from bearing loads

These burdens thick with guilt

But if I speak about these wrongs

My soul will surely wilt

I found you

I found you

I’m at your side at last

But now I’m beside you

Will you walk with my path

I’m sorry that I hurt you

I don’t regret the love

But I can’t know what’s in your heart

Like clouds too thick above

I found you

I found you

I hope to make amends

So now I'm before you

Tell me can we be friends
