Nuclear Criticism in Japanese Cultural Production

Nuclear Criticism in Japanese Cultural Production
The course looks at the representations of nuclear disaster in various media such as literature, theatre, film, or manga. It explores the role of the arts for investigating the human experience of calamities including the Fukushima triple disaster and the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Scrutinizing these tragic occurrences, the course will question, for example, how artists participate in shaping perceptions about natural and man-made disaster, how memory is re-shaped in cultural production, or discuss the sociopolitical potentials of art works. The readings will introduce students to theories and methods of analyzing artistic discourse and help them to situate their findings into the wider context of Japanese society and culture.

Students will be asked to undertake two pieces of work for assessment in addition to their participation in class discussion. Class presentation. 20% A class presentation of no more than 20 mins that responds to the themes and readings for that work. The presentation should use PowerPoint or similar presentational media.

All essay topics should be approved by the professor before starting work. Due dates of essays will be discussed in the beginning of the semester. My preference is for your essay to be submitted as a word document. Active participation and attendance. 15% Each week there will be a discussion about the topic, readings and or performance that you have read and viewed. What questions arise from the readings – what do you find interesting and what don’t you yet understand properly?
