Zhanlu's collection calendar, a civilized treasure every day, customize your exclusive museum.

This picture comes from the art magazine published in 1905, "Modern Programmaker", which depicts a Japanese kabuki with very national characteristics.

According to legend, Kabuki originated from the late Japanese Warring States Period and was created by the Witch's Guo Guo. In the Edo period, Kabuki developed for a mature drama. As a representative of traditional Japanese culture, Kabuki was listed as an intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2005.

For more than 400 years, Japan's Kabuki industry has kept the "attack name" martial arts inheritance custom, that is, the name of the ancestors. In order to distinguish each generation of the attacking person, each generation of Kabuki will add the prefix of "several generations" in front of his name to represent this name to the first generation. For example "" Ten Generations of Satonumoto Sakamoto "and so on. However, in addition to the relationship between father and son, the relationship between the two generations of neighboring generations may also be the relationship between grandchildren, grandchildren, nephew, master and apprentice, etc., and may not have a blood relationship. This inheritance emphasizes the inheritance of status.
