 note = {Traditional poetry made significant contributions to the social construction of patriotism in Japan. One Hundred Patriotic Poems by One Hundred Poets (Aikoku hyakunin isshu), consisting of one hundred waka poems from the Nara period (645- 794) through the Edo period (1615-1868), was edited by the Japan Literacy Society (Bungaku houkokukai) during the Asia-Pacific war period (1931-1945). The Imperial Japanese Government, army, and newspaper publishers all supported this editorial process. How did people in Japan perceive the anthology? And how did they conceptualize the word "patriotism (aikoku)" in the collection? Exploring the poems and historical media sources, this paper reveals the processes of constructing patriotism in wartime Japan. Card games (namely, karuta) and music records were produced and made available to school children. Children sat straight with their eyes closed and learned the poems at school. And even if they did not like the poetry, they were forced to memorize them as part of the national educational curriculum. The concept of "patriotism" in the anthology was connected to the pleasant and proud feelings of having been born to Japan. It also referred to the spirits of the people who had died for the Emperor in the war. Analyses reveal that the anthology asserted that patriotism was universal throughout the entire history of Japan. This patriotism in wartime Japan, I argue, was a manifestation of the intentionally constructed cultural values by the Imperial authority. I emphasize that it had no universality. Rather than encouraging people to devote their life to war, its visualization in the edited collection called some people's attention to the problem of forced and self-sacrificing patriotism in Japan.},
