Una revisión histórica ANA MARÍA SEDEÑO VALDELLÓS RESUMEN El artículo trata de resumir las fases fundamentales del cine nipón, desde su naci- miento documental a finales del siglo XIX hasta los inicios del nuevo milenio. Se des- criben y ordenan las etapas básicas de su desarrollo, se buscan las causas históricas, sociales y culturales que explican la especial configuración de una filmografía incom- parable, exótica y, a la vez, tan cercana, una de los más prestigiosas del panorama ci- nematográfico mundial. ABSTRACT This article tries to sum up the basic phases of japanese cinematography, from its origin at the end of the niniteen century to the beginning of this millenium. The essen- tial stages are described and put in order, the historical, social and cultural reasons are searched. They all expound the special shape of this exotic cinema, one of the worthier in the world scene. 1. INTRODUCCIÓN En el presente artículo van a repasarse algunos de los acontecimientos his- tóricos que han condicionado el cine del país del sol naciente: elementos de la tradición más ancestral, imperialismos económicos y burocráticos... Todo esto ha marcado una de las industrias más prolíficas del mundo, absolutamente misteriosa para la mayoría de los habitantes del planeta y de la que los críticos y expertos cinematográficos no ha visto ni la mitad de la producción existente, mientras la otra parte es inaccesible (duerme en cinematecas remotas) o ha de- saparecido. Una cinematografía compleja llena de matices estilísticos y con una extraordinaria variedad de géneros, subgéneros y temas que han evolucionado rápidamente en el último siglo bajo dos estigmas históricos: el gran peso de la 253 Ana M.a Sedeño Valdellós Cine japonés: Tradición y condicionantes creativos actuales tradición, folklore y hábitos sociales nipones y la necesidad de un vínculo co- mercial con la industria occidental, sobre todo desde la ocupación norteameri- cana de la posguerra.

Inhalt Roy und Denise Solomon ziehen mit ihrer Teenager-Tochter Jess und ihrem kleinen Sohn Ben in ein entlegenes Farmhaus in einem Sonnenblumenfeld in North Dakota. Dass sich dort womöglich übernatürliche Dinge abspielen könnten, bleibt von den Erwachsenen unbemerkt. Aber Ben und kurz darauf Jess spüren bald, dass nicht alles mit rechten Dingen zugeht. Weil ihr die Eltern nicht glauben wollen, recherchiert Jess auf eigene Faust und erfährt, dass sich in ihrem neuen Zuhause sechs Jahre zuvor ein bestialischer Mord abgespielt hat. Kritik Für sein amerikanisches Debüt hat sich das umtriebige Brüderpaar Danny und Oxide Pang („The Eye“) eine Variante von „Amityville Horror“ ausgesucht, um eine amerikanische Durchschnittsfamilie nach allen Regeln der Kunst mit übernatürlichem Terror zu überziehen.

Date _________________________________ Project Advisor _________________________________ (Paul LeVasseur) Project Reader _________________________________ (Kevin O’Donnell) Acknowledgements There are so many people that contributed to this project and without their help this project would not have been possible. First, I would like to thank my Sakae and Taiyonomachi classes for always being patient with me and for taking time out of their busy schedules to write feedback about each of the topics. Second, I am very grateful to Toshihiko Kamegaya, Mayumi Noda, Katsuko Usui, Terukazu Chinen and Naoko Ueda for providing the anecdotes in the section titled “Voices from Japan.” Third, I would like to give a special thanks to Paul LeVasseur, my advisor and teacher, whose Four Skills class inspired me to do this project and whose insightful comments about this paper were invaluable. I would also like to thank the summer faculty at SIT for their dedication and commitment to the teaching profession and to their students. Next, I would like to acknowledge my reader, Kevin O’Donnell, for guiding me in the right direction and for spending time, in his already hectic schedule, to read my paper.
