Mask of samurai

 












History

o        The samurai began as a special group of warriors meant to protect the noble class in ancient Japan around the eighth century. They were magnificent swordsmen and had to have excellent armor that would allow them to move swiftly during fights. By the 16th century, masks were added as a necessary addition to the armor, protecting the head and face. Over time, the masks evolved to include extra features, both functional and artistic.
o        Samurai dimulai sebagai kelompok khusus prajurit dimaksudkan untuk melindungi kelas mulia di Jepang kuno sekitar abad kedelapan. Mereka adalah pedang megah dan harus memiliki baju besi yang sangat baik yang akan memungkinkan mereka untuk bergerak cepat selama perkelahian. Pada abad ke-16, masker ditambahkan sebagai tambahan yang diperlukan untuk baju besi, melindungi kepala dan wajah. Seiring waktu, topeng berevolusi untuk menyertakan fitur tambahan, baik fungsional dan artistik.

Clan Symbols

o        Each mask contains clues to a samurai's function or clan identity. Various markings, colors, and style of mask would link samurai to the same group or region. Most masks included a form of antlers or horns protruding from the top of the mask. Clan symbols like sunbursts or crests were usually found in a special socket just above the forehead or at the back and the sides of the head. The markings could mean many things, serving as each clan's unique symbolism.
    • Setiap Topeng berisi petunjuk untuk fungsi samurai atau identitas klan. Berbagai tanda, warna, dan gaya Topeng akan menghubungkan samurai ke kelompok yang sama atau wilayah. Kebanyakan topeng termasuk bentuk tanduk atau tanduk menonjol dari bagian atas topeng. Clan simbol seperti sunbursts atau puncak-puncak yang biasanya ditemukan dalam soket khusus hanya di atas dahi atau di belakang dan samping kepala. Tanda-tanda bisa berarti banyak hal, menjabat sebagai simbolisme yang unik masing-masing klan.

Function

o        Samurai masks were more complex than simple protection and decoration. The angry faces that were created on the mask were meant to terrify the enemy. While the masks did often give clues as to a samurai's clan or region, they helped to hide the face of each samurai, so that he could not be recognized. Hiding not only identity, the masks also hid any terror that might be found in the samurai's face, giving him the appearance of undaunted courage.
o        Topeng Samurai lebih kompleks daripada perlindungan sederhana dan dekorasi. Wajah-wajah marah yang dibuat pada topeng itu dimaksudkan untuk menakut-nakuti musuh. Sementara topeng memang sering memberikan petunjuk tentang klan samurai atau wilayah, mereka membantu untuk menyembunyikan wajah samurai masing-masing, sehingga ia tidak dapat dikenali. Menyembunyikan tidak hanya identitas, topeng juga menyembunyikan setiap teror yang mungkin ditemukan di wajah samurai, memberinya penampilan keberanian gentar.

Types

o        Masks were made of several different materials. The base of the mask was made of leather or metal, shaped into a protective covering. Paint, animal hair, metals and wood were used to decorate the outside of the mask. The masks were made by hand, either riveted or sewn together when made of leather. Some masks were painted red on the inside, which tinted the face of the samurai red, making them even more fearsome.
o        Topeng terbuat dari beberapa bahan yang berbeda. Dasar topeng terbuat dari kulit atau logam, dibentuk menjadi lapisan pelindung. Cat, bulu hewan, logam dan kayu yang digunakan untuk menghias bagian luar masker. Topeng dibuat dengan tangan, baik dikeling atau dijahit bersama-sama ketika terbuat dari kulit. Beberapa masker dicat merah di dalam, yang berwarna wajah merah samurai, membuat mereka bahkan lebih menakutkan.

Considerations

o        Samurai masks were not only important to those who wore the masks, but also to those who made them and to the families of the samurai. Mask makers won high regard for their specialized craft. Masks also reflected the samurai's code, or bushido which promoted never-ending courage and sacrifice. The masks mirrored the code of bushido because they covered a samurai's fear, if any. Families of samurai continued the pride, passing the mask on to other generations, sometimes to a young future samurai.
o        Topeng Samurai tidak hanya penting untuk mereka yang mengenakan topeng, tetapi juga untuk orang-orang yang membuat mereka dan kepada keluarga samurai. Pembuat topeng memenangkan menjunjung tinggi kerajinan khusus mereka. Masker juga tercermin kode samurai, atau bushido yang dipromosikan tidak pernah berakhir keberanian dan pengorbanan. Topeng mencerminkan kode bushido karena mereka menutupi ketakutan samurai, jika ada. Keluarga samurai terus kebanggaan, melewati topeng kepada generasi lain, kadang-kadang seorang samurai masa muda.
