Japanese cinema in the wake of Fukushima
More than eight years have passed since the Fukushima nuclear disaster.1 What changes, if any, has that dark day spelled for Japanese culture? In the wake of the 2011 earthquake, people throughout
What animals, women, children, and foreigners can tell us about Fukushima
With a death toll surpassing 18,000, the events of 3.11 stand as an unprecedented disaster in post-World War II Japan. Yet we have not actually witnessed people dying, in Japanese mass media, due to self-censorship practices within the industry. Animals, however, are another story. The media have used animals’ corpses as a stand-in for what is otherwise impossible to make visible. In this article, I will carefully listen to the animals who have b…

Nippon Modern renders that image, aspect after fascinating aspect, in sharp detail. Scores of films make up that image, a few resurrected in this volume for intense and delightful analysis. A sensitive viewer and an honest resourceful historian, Wada-Marciano lays out what she's found in relation to other studies of…
