| Research Abstract |
Since more than a century, imperialism and nation-states have not only suppressed and marginalized minority languages., but also domesticated people to be bi-or multi-lingual 20^<th> century's literature, however, could not adjust itself to this condition by giving birth to bi-or multi-lingual texts but produced various experimental efforts to reflect and criticize its condition. We have tried to write another worldwide literary history from this point of view. Postcolonial readings of Shakespeare's Tempest in Latin America and Caribbean area, Japanese writing before and after the end of Asian-Pacific War, musically versed expression of Japanese immigrants in Hawaii and oral histories of Palestinian refugees in diaspora state have supplied us with the materials for our collaborative research. Comparative studies between situation of intellectuals in French Martinque and that in Japanese Okinawa, or between U.S. military occupations in Japan about sixty years ago and in Iraq at present have made clear the continuity of globalization process. And Walter Benjamin's thought on the eve of the Holocaust have been closed up anew by its prophetic criticism. Faced to the overwhelming pressure of globalization we are required to adopt comparison as a method.
