  • Characterising the Anthropocene: Ecological Degradation in Italian Twenty-First Century Literary Writing
    Characterising the Anthropocene: Ecological Degradation in Italian Twenty-First Century Literary Writing by Alessandro Macilenti A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Literature. Victoria University of Wellington 2015 Abstract The twenty-first century has witnessed the exacerbation of ecological issues that began to manifest themselves in the mid-twentieth century. It has become increasingly clear that the current environmental crisis poses an unprecedented existential threat to civilization as well as to Homo sapiens itself. Whereas the physical and social sciences have been defining the now inevitable transition to a different (and more inhospitable) Earth, the humanities have yet to assert their role as a transformative force within the context of global environmental change. Turning abstract issues into narrative form, literary writing can increase awareness of environmental issues as well as have a deep emotive influence on its readership. To showcase this type of writing as well as the methodological frameworks that best highlights the social and ethical relevance of such texts alongside their literary value, I have selected the following twenty-first century Italian literary works: Roberto Saviano’s Gomorra, Kai Zen’s Delta blues, Wu Ming’s Previsioni del tempo, Simona Vinci’s Rovina, Giancarlo di Cataldo’s Fuoco!, Laura Pugno’s Sirene, and Alessandra Montrucchio’s E poi la sete, all published between 2006 and 2011. The main goal of this study is to demonstrate how these works offer an invaluable opportunity to communicate meaningfully and accessibly the discomforting truths of global environmental change, including ecomafia, waste trafficking, illegal building, arson, ozone depletion, global warming and the dysfunctional relationship between humanity and the biosphere.

  • The Dissemination of Japanese Manga in China
    Lund University Center for East and South-East Asian Studies Masters Programme in Asian studies East and Southeast Asian track Spring semester, 2005 The Dissemination of Japanese Manga in China: The interplay of culture and social transformation in post reform period Author: Yang Wang Supervisor: Anna Jerneck Acknowledgements I want to thank my teachers in Lund University, who gave me the opportunity to do research for my thesis. I want to thank teachers in Waseda University for the summer course. I also want to thank my family who has always been supportive. And finally, I want to thank all the friends I have met with in Sweden, Japan and China. 2 Abstract The thesis is a combination of both research fieldwork in sociology and documentary study on the historical development of Japanese animation (and manga) within China in the past two decades. The author tries to reveal some of the social changes taken place in Chinese society through a prevailing foreign culture that once did not even exist. The thesis examines the background, the initiation and developing course of Japanese animation (and manga) while trying to find out how it was distributed and received in the country. By looking into the history of Japanese animation (and manga) in China, several points can be made to the subject. 1) The timing of Japanese animation (and manga) entering China is to the moment of political and social significance. The distribution and consuming of a once considered children program has reflected almost every corner of the social transformation. 2) It has educated the young generation with a blurred idea of modernity at the first place while partly changed their worldview that driving them further away from the lost tradition.

    MIT Japan Program Working Paper 04.02 Progress Against the Law: Fan Distribution, Copyright, and the Explosive Growth of Japanese Animation Sean Leonard Massachusetts Institute of Technology Abstract The medium of Japanese animation is a powerhouse in the world of alternative entertainment. Proselytization by fans ignited the anime movement in America, despite Japanese copyright holders’ abandonment of the American market. The author presents an historical and legal analysis to demonstrate that, at least in one case spanning two decades, fans’ continual infringement of copyright spurred the progress of commerce and the arts. 1 MIT Japan Program Working Paper Series 04.02 Center for International Studies Massachusetts Institute of Technology Room E38-7th Floor Cambridge, MA 02139 Phone: 617-252-1483 Fax: 617-258-7432 Date of Publication: November 2, 2004 © Sean Leonard 2 Table of Contents 1.
