First Published in 1996. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
First Published in 1996. This collection of works is in response to American film scholar and long-term resident of Japan, Donald Richie, words: The Japanese failure to come to terms with Hiroshima is one which is shared by everybody in the world today, from over thirty years ago, when responding to the Japanese subgenre of cinema which had dealt with the atom bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Three decades on, the question lingers, does this appraisal remain valid? Hibakusha Cinema is an attempt - perhaps momentarily - to reorient critical focus upon a rarely discussed, yet important feature of Japanese cinema. The essays collected here represent a mix of Japanese and western (pan-Pacific) scholarship harnessing multidisciplinary methodologies, ranging from close textual analysis, archival and historical argument, anthropological assessment, literary and film comparative analyses to psychological and ideological hermeneutics.
