Beschreibung:
Barbara Geilhorn is a JSPS-postdoctoral fellow based at Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan. Her publications include Enacting Culture: Japanese Theater in Historical and Modern Contexts, co-edited with Eike Grossmann (iudicium, 2012).
The natural and man-made cataclysmic events of the 11th March 2011 have dramatically altered the status quo of contemporary Japanese society. While much has been written about social, political, economic, and technical aspects of the disaster, this volume represents the first in-depth exploration of cultural responses to the devastating tsunami, and in particular the ongoing nuclear disaster of Fukushima. It analyses examples from literature, poetry, manga, theatre, art photography, documentary and fiction film, and popular music. By scrutinizing various media narratives and taking into account national and local perspectives, it sheds light on cultural texts of power, politics, and space.
