| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Through a detailed analysis of the discourse, this study discusses the dynamics and significance of the confrontation between various literary fields and the biological or eugenic ideology in modern Japan.
Methodologically, I eliminate the typical naive positivism that assumes that any term which is influenced by western thought is merely a trace of the west, literally. Rather, the current study emphasizes the multifaceted effect of this confrontation within literature, which is closely observed and examined in the discourse of multi-layered code conversion, metaphorical transposition, projection, image reproduction structure, etc.,based on collection of empirical primary materials from international perspectives.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
依然として優生思想がその背景に関わっていると指摘される現今の問題の多さとその歴史的経緯の理解の混乱ぶりからすれば、本研究の緊要性は増したと言える。その論点は、われわれの「近代性」と骨絡みである自然史的発想の問題にあるが、それがどのように透明化し、見え難くなってしまったのかについて、近代における文学という感情の構造の装置を多言語的・歴史的アプローチによって分析することにより、その一端を明らかにした。
