  • July 1995 ABSTRACT
    BEYOND COMMON SENSE: NEGOTIATING CONSTRUCTIONS OF SEXUALITY AND GENDER IN JAPAN W1MLUNSINO A thesis submitted in partial fulf'tlment of the requirements of Oxford Brookes University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy This research programme was carried out in collaboration with Kyoto Seika University July 1995 ABSTRACT. This thesis is concerned with lifestyles in Japan that have hitherto remained largely unreported. The main research categor- ies are gay men, lesbian women, single men and women, and feminist men and women. In addition attention is given to transvestites, transsexuals and hermaphrodites. The main aim of the thesis is to provide an ethnography of the lives of the various categories, which is a new angle from which to view Japanese society. The research methods consist of participant observation and in- depth open-ended free attitude interviews. Participant observa- tion in this case includes all aspects of people's life: personal relationships and reading what people from the categories say they read. In addition I developed experiential research, i.e. experiencing what informants may experience. The major question from which the research started out is that of how people whose feelings, ideas or lifestyles do not agree with heterosexual marriage cope with life in a society in which everyone is expected to marry. In this sense the research goes a step beyond what much of anthropology does: establishing what are more or less standard lifestyles in a particular culture. After discussing the position of marriage in Japanese society in chapter three, including political and legal aspects, this thesis discusses how people of the various research categories may try to fit in with the idea that one should marry by entering marriage and the problems this may give in chapter four.

Priscilla Bawcutt Dunbar and his Readers: From Allan Ramsay to Richard Burton It is curious that no full and detailed examination exists of a topic that is intrinsically interesting: the fluctuations in Dunbar's reputation. No "Critical Heritage" volume has been devoted to Dunbar, or indeed to any of the Makars. There do exist selective studies: an article by Elizabeth Roth in 1981 surveyed changing critical attitudes to The Twa Mariit Wemen and the Wedo, and my own Dunbar the Makar examined how differently people have responded, over the centuries, to his comedy or his language.! An article by Jean Jacques Blan­ chot has the promising title "Dunbar and his Critics," but consists largely of statistical tables and lists of titles. Bibliographical aids, however, such as Blanchot's article and the substantial works by Geddie, Ridley, Scheps and Looney, and Gray,2 should not be despised; they are the essential starting-point for serious study of this subject.

  • Postcolonial Theory Reconsidered: Discourses of Race, Gender, and Imperialism in the German-Japanese Realm
    Postcolonial Theory Reconsidered: Discourses of Race, Gender, and Imperialism in the German-Japanese Realm by Christin Bohnke A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto © Copyright by Christin Bohnke (2017) Postcolonial Theory Reconsidered: Discourses of Race, Gender, and Imperialism in the German- Japanese Realm Christin Bohnke Doctor of Philosophy Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This study explores the intersections of race and gender as they manifest in film and print media across a century of transnational flows between Germany and Japan. I argue that German-Japanese relations in the twentieth century invite novel re-readings of existing postcolonial theories, resulting in a productive re-evaluation of inherited terms such as ‘hybridity’ and ‘race’. Each chapter of my dissertation is devoted to a particular strand of the cultural fabric woven between Germany and Japan and its consequences for the broader relationship between East Asia and Europe. Chapter two focuses on the German-language magazine East Asia (Ost-Asien) published by the Japanese Tamai Kisak from 1898-1910 in Berlin, on Kitasato Takeshi’s German-language drama Fumio (1900), and on the silent film Bushido (1926). These works negotiate Japan’s complex situation as simultaneously belonging to an Asian and a European cultural realm in often contradictory ways. Chapter three pursues an in-depth analysis of the German-Japanese relationship between 1932 and 1945 via such diverse cultural artifacts as the results of a German-Japanese essay contest held in 1944, German newsreels, and German-Japanese filmic co-productions.

  • Cross-Cultural Combined Arts Creation/Performance and the Research Supporting It
    Cross-Cultural Combined Arts Creation/Performance And The Research Supporting It Dr. Wai-On Ho Abstract: As a veteran composer, and creator/director of work/projects combining music, dance, drama and visual arts across different cultures, I undertook doctoral work in 2009 because the scope of a PhD in the arts has expanded to include cross-cultural combined arts creation/performance practices – conditions favorable for my project. From my PhD process and attending seminars/conferences, I became aware that practice-led creation/performance that results from academic research is a compromise between the disciplines of academic and professional practices. Academic practice has a tendency to attempt to fit complex projects into minute categorizations which might not show the full picture. For those who create and perform “interdisciplinary” work, what they do is inseparable from their complex life and responding to many factors of the time. They work for the audience, i.e., the general public. In a less obvious way, academic work is also affected by one’s background and personal experience – this is what gives the work passion and poignancy. Including an element of the autobiographical enhances the creation/performance to reach people beyond the academic circle because it is about life and people understand that. My chapter reflects critically on the purpose of research in the pursuit of cross-cultural combined arts creation/performance. Keywords: Cross-Cultural Combined Arts, Creative Performance Art, Academic Versus Professional Approach, Compromise Of Contradictions Lead-In Note Growing up in the British colony Hong Kong, I have lived most of my life in England.
