  • Title Innocence Abroad : Three Bildungsromane Set in Japan Author
    Title Innocence Abroad : Three Bildungsromane Set in Japan Author(s) Pavloska, Susan Citation 英文学評論 (1991), 61: 89-102 Issue Date 1991-03 URL https://doi.org/10.14989/RevEL_61_89 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University 89 Innocence Abroad : Three Bildungsromane Set in Japan Susan Pavloska The appearance of a "tsunami" of recent literary works set in Japan, including novels by Brad Leithauser, Sarah Sheard, Jay Mclnerney, and John Burnham Schwartz, nonfiction by Michael Shapiro, Gary Katzenstein, and Leila Philip, and poetry by David Mura and Mary Jo Salter, has prompted reviewers to speculate that for the newest generation of writers, Tokyo has become what Paris was for writers of the 1920s and 30s: "the hip place to go and consider the meaning of life."1 Whether or not Japan really is the "Paris of the 90s", the question remains of what the sudden appearance of Japan as a literary subject means. As Edward Said pointed out in Orientalism, historically, Americans have tended to write about Japan, employing the mastering discourse of the social sciences, rather than of it : [The social science approach! is the specifically American contribution to the history of Orientalism and it can be dated roughly from the period immediately following World War II, when the United States found itself in the position recently vacated by Britain and France. The American experience of the Orient prior to that exceptional moment was limited... there was no deeply invested tradition of Orientalism, and consequently in the United States knowledge of the Orient never passed through the refining process..

  • A Word with Pizzazz!
    11 Learn when and how to enrich your prose with foreign words P55 pizzazz [pɪzˈæz ] [uncountable] informal something that has pizzazz is exciting and has a strong interesting style: A word with pizzazz! MAY 1ST, 2007 Q: Oh, how I would love to know where the expression “full of pizzazz” comes from! The phrase itself is full of pizzazz! Is it a Boston thing? Is it a 1940s and 1950s expression? A: The noun “pizzazz” (also spelled “pizazz” and “pazazz”) originated in the 1910s and originally meant an expert or an exemplar, according to Cassell’s Dictionary of Slang. (This was news to me too!) In the 1920s, the meaning evolved into style, glamour, or ostentation. By the 1930s, it was being used to mean energy or zest. I’d guess this is the meaning in the expression “full of pizzazz.” The word’s etymology is unknown, though the Oxford English Dictionary says it’s frequently attributed to Diana Vreeland, the late fashion maven. (Cassell’s Dictionary of Word and Phrase Origins is duBious about the Vreeland attribution.) The OED’s first published reference is from Harper’s Bazaar in 1937, the year Vreeland arrived at the magazine as a columnist. Here’s the citation: “Pizazz, to quote the editor of the Harvard Lampoon, is an indefinable dynamic quality, the je ne sais quoi of function; as for instance, adding Scotch puts pizazz in a drink.” Although its origin is unknown, “pizzazz” has echoes in “razzle” (a spree or a good time) and “razzmatazz” (showy, high-class, or an exclamation of pleasure).

Available at: http://digitalcommons.macalester.edu/macintl/vol8/iss1/16 This Response is brought to you for free and open access by the Institute for Global Citizenship at DigitalCommons@Macalester College. It has been accepted for inclusion in Macalester International by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@Macalester College. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Response Sarah Pradt I’d like to begin with appreciation for the narrative with which Jane Marie Law began her essay, and for the way she employed the story about Rusty as a telling parallel to some of the processes she describes in the Japanese state’s appropriation and creation of religious images and traditions. Many students and colleagues who had read Law’s essay in advance of the Roundtable remarked on how moved they were by the personal narrative and its relationship to the deepest ques- tions raised in the essay. I am compelled to stress that while certain kinds of critical theory, first among them feminist theory, have insisted that students and scholars examine the structures of fantasy and desire that attract or bind us to the objects of our study, within the various fields that make up Japanese studies, such a move is rare.1 Students and scholars of Japan—in Japan and outside of Japan—need the kind of rigorous assessment of the relationship between the self and the imaginary or fantastic nature of the object of study that Law performs.
