| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For a volume on Pacificism, published in 2017, Thomas Schwarz reconstructed the historical context of Cook’s third voyage from a postcolonial perspective. Arne Klawitter contributed his research on European enthusiasm for the South Seas during the Age of Enlightenment. The article of Markus Joch covers the forced opening of Japan by comparing literature and a movie on the story of the Geisha Okichi. Mario Kumekawa compared Japanese and American movies on the hybrid monster Godzilla from the nuclear Pacific. Yukio Toyoda investigated the status of Tok Pisin, a hybrid link-language of Papua New Guinea. Schwarz did archival research and field work in Micronesia on the rebellion of Pohnpei’s Sokehs against German colonial power in 1910/11.The Pacific appears as a discursive construction expedited by European sciences. However, considerable traces of hybridisation and resistance against imperial power have inscribed themselves in the discursive formation of Pacificism.
