Abstract

This research offers a new reading of Nihon Sankei, a term that encompasses the landscapes of Matsushima, Amanohashidate and Miyajima. This reading is based on the cognitive construction of the human being, from the relational perspective relying on the social psychology perspective by Kenneth J. Gergen, and following the idea of “cognitive associational map” by Ikegami Eiko. Under this perspective, the relevance of Nihon Sankei in the configuration of Japan’s national identity acquires its full meaning.
