Tozama Daimyo. Tozama daimyo were daimyo who had not been vassals of Ieyasu in 1600 and their descendants. Many of them, especially the greater ones, had close ties with the shogunate, including marriage ties, but they did not take part in the bureaucracy or concern themselves with national affairs, at least publicly.
Besides the Tell â Tale Heart, I also have read Ligeia and I too have watched the movie. The Tell â Tale Heart is about the narrator whom hates the old man eyes. Evil Eye, he said. The old man has a vulture eye â a pale blue eye, with a film over it.
The power to cause injury or misfortune, as in The tomatoes died shortly after planting-I must have an evil eye. The source of this expression is the ancient superstitious belief that some individuals could inflict harm on others simply by looking at them. Today the term is generally used figuratively or ironically, as above, and also in the form give someone the evil eye, which means glare malevolently at someone.. For example, Helen gave his cat the evil eye, hoping it would stay out of her garden. [Late 1300s].
