おくりびと・納棺夫

A student watched the movie "おくりびと" (Departures: Takita Yojiro) and wrote about it (☆SMILE☆: Departures).

I haven't seen the movie but I've read the work by Sasou Akira last year. I liked the story, which is about a man who's given up his career as a cellist and started to work as an "encoffiner". The job itself was new to me. I've never imagined that kind of job, and it's interesting to learn how necessary an "encoffiner" is. It was good to see a man learn more and take pride in himself.

『納棺夫日記』をちょこちょと読んでいる。これを「おくりびと」という物語にまとめあげたのもなかなかな仕事だと思う(さそうあきらか?)。

『~日記』の方は、ほんとうに日記に近い独白で、ストーリー仕立てにはなっていない。納棺夫という仕事についた主人公が、自分の体験と、そこから考えるようになった事柄を並列して淡々と語る。仕事も人間関係も同列。葬式・供養という目の前の儀式を見ていて、アニミズムまで出てくる。献体問題(まあ仕事がら近いトピックか)から、宇宙に視点をおいたとき地球がどう認識されるか、まで思いつくがままに語られる。(体験と思索の並列具合を見ていると、ちょっと恩田陸を思い出した。特に、『月の裏側』あたり。)

『おくりびと』のストーリーも、『納棺夫日記』の思索も、どちらもそれぞれ面白い。「原作とそのコミック版」という感じでは全然ない。両方読んで両方楽しめる。お得(?)

Yotsuba speaking German!


I ordered Yotsuba &! Vol.1 to Vol.5, and ... oh my goodness, Vol.1 and Vol. 2 are a German version!!! (すみません。てことで available な英語版は今のところ1, 4, 5 です・・・。

But it's fun to see Yotsuba speaking German, e.g.,

"Gibt es denn heute ein Fest, Papa?" (父ちゃん、今日は祭りか?)


Ooooooo I want a Korean version - 요츠바랑! この方のご紹介。頑張って訳してみるか(エキサイトが役に立つかな):
아즈마 키요히코의 만화가 가진 특징이라면 무엇이 있을까?
あずま きよひこの 漫画が もっている 特徴とえば 何だろうか

기본기가 탄탄한 뎃생, 매력적인 캐릭터…
基本技が ・・・・・, 魅力的なキャラクター…

하지만 그런 것들보다 좀 더 본질적인 부분에서,
だが そんなことより もう少し 本質的な 部分で,
그의 만화는 일상을 그 소재로 삼으면서도 지루하지 않다는 것을 금방 깨달을 수 있다.
彼の 漫画は 日常を その 素材としながら 退屈で ないということを ・・・できる。

어째서일까?
なぜだろうか?

'아즈망가 대왕'에서 여고생들의 일상을 4컷만화라는 형식을 통해 보여 주었던 그가 이번에는 옴니버스식 장편을 통해 우리에게 다가왔다.
「あずまんが大王」で 女子高生達の 日常を 4コマ漫画の 形式を通して 見せて くれた彼が 今回は オムニバス式 長編を 通じて 私たちに ・・・。

'요츠바'라는 시끄러운 꼬맹이 한 명을 앞세우고서.
「よつば」という 騒々しい ちっちゃな子 1人を 前面に出して。
(만화 이야기 2006/11/16 23:38 posted by 이피)

Yotsuba &!

"Yotsuba &!" has arrived. Here is an excerpt from Vol.4:

(Yotsuba is trying to choose one ice cream to have)
DAD: I know. I'll eat all of them for you. When I'm done, you can have the one that tasted best. よ~し。父ちゃんが全部食べてやるよ。その後で、一番うまかったやつを食べればいい。

YOTSUBA: Ah! A great idea! お~いいな!

DAD: Ok. I'll just take these. よ~し。じゃこれもらうぞ。(Yotsuba is just waiting...)

JUMBO: You're ok with this? He's going to eat them all. いいのか?父ちゃんが全部食べちゃうぞ。

YOTSUBA: ... Adult! That's soo adult! ... 大人って!大人って!

DAD: Took you long enough. やっと分かったか。

* * * 

Meet Yotsuba and see how cute and funny she is! Enjoy reading!!!

Creating a video cloze

http://tesolonline.net/moodle19b/

DVD => mpeg file (ripping soft が必要) その後は自動的?
*permission needed

video + cloze

****
Upload the desired video in an acceptable format. (.mpg, .swf)
Prepare the video dialog as a plain text file.
Create your cloze items, replacing each word or phrase with this format:
{:SHORTANSWER:=word ~*#word}
(The item with the "=" is the correct answer, the item with #word is the feedback which is the same as the correct answer. Students can view this feedback by mousing over their wrong answers.)

Create a quiz with a single "Embedded Answers (Cloze) item
Place the entire text with the shortanswer items in the question window.
At the top of the question window click on the chain icon and link to the video file in your course files area. (Note that you might have to temporarily have some text such as "xxx" to that there is something to highlight in order for the chain icon to be activated. You can delete the text afterwards.)

How to increase the maximum php upload size
HTACCESS
Put this line in your .htaccess file, if allowed by your provider.
php_value upload_max_filesize 1024 = 20M

PHP.INI
Modify the value in your php.ini file to read:
upload_max_filesize = 20M;
Note that sometimes you can access the main php.ini file for you site. Some hosts do not permit access but allow you to create a php.ini file at the top level of your own area, the values of which will override the defaults.
