Research Abstract |
Using Shukan Shokokumin (Weekly National Youth), which was published during the Pacific war until its end, as my text I examined the wartime visual culture of pictures and graphic materials. I examined how these visual materials and the literary representations carried out by authors merged together in some ways, but in other ways could become mutually quite distinct. Also comparing Shonen kurabu (Youth Club), Shokokumin bunka (National Youth Culture) and other youth magazines as well as young women's magazines and visually-oriented magazines aimed at adults such as Asahi Graph, I considerd the meaning of visually-oriented magazines aimed at children during the war. Without just ending my analysis with the conclusion that these materials were simply propaganda, I considerd the relationship between child reader's reactions to these serials and tie-in media events beyond just print culture, including local and school events.
