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.
By connecting the repeated theme of the narratorâs identification with the old man to the obsession with the eye, the reader can conclude that what the narrator wishes to destroy is not the eye but that which sounds like âeyeâ (after all, he says that his sense of sound especially has been heightened).
