Basara
|
Also spelled basara. A popular term that succinctly expresses the aesthetic sense and values of the turbulent period of the Northern and Southern Courts, it refers to a dazzling appearance adorned with extravagant clothing and a free-spirited, uninhibited behavior. The word's origin is said to be in the transliteration of the Sanskrit word vajra (diamond, diamond), basara. There were many warrior families who were enthusiastic fans of basara, such as the daimyo of Omi, Sasaki Takauji (Doyo), and his family. →Nanboku-cho period / Kabuki Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
