Info

Spirited Away is a popular movie created by Studio Ghibli, well-known animation film studio. Heavilyinfluenced by Japanese mythology and folklore, Hayao Miyazaki wrote and directed this fantasy film,where the main character Chihiro ends up in a world of spirits and tries to save her parents, who haveturned into pigs (more information on this movie are in the references at the end of this scrapbook).This year's NJCL Convention theme is Omnes...summa ope niti decet, ne vitam silentio transeant.(Sallust, Bellum Catilinae 1.1) "It befits all to strive with greatest effort, lest they pass their lives in silence."In Spirited Away, Chihiro definitely embodies the essence of this quote. She develops from a scared childto a hardworking and brave character who is willing to sacrifice for those that she cares about. At alltimes, Chihiro strives with her greatest effort for those she cares for, making sure she positively impactsevery person and spirit she meets.I have always loved Studio Ghibli movies, not only because of the beautiful and extremely detailedanimation but also because of the smooth incorporation of mythology and fantasy into each movie. WhileJapanese myths are different from Greek myths, there are still many aspects that are the same for bothcultures: the world began as Chaos, food eaten in the Underworld affects the one who ate it (Persephone;Izanagi), and that the sun and moon are siblings (Apollo and Artemis; Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu). Ispecifically chose to connect Greek mythology to the mythology of another culture because now, morethan ever, is the time to learn about and empathize with those of other cultures. When we listen to thestories of other people, these stories "can stimulate, amaze and inspire their listeners" (Miyazaki).2With that being said, I hope this scrapbook reminds you of the beautiful memories we have sharedtogether this year and that you'll be inspired to strive with your greatest effort to live passionately and tolove others.
