| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research grasps the imagined scenery of diplomatic consciousness of "ordinary Americans (mainstream Americans)" toward the Hawaiian Annexation problem in the latter half of the 19th century, which was difficult due to restrictions on historical documents thus far. For that reason, the researcher treated Political Cartoons published in newspapers and magazines of the same era as visual historical documents and tried analyzing them.
The researcher collected political cartoons as historical documents in the Hawaii University's Hawaiian Collection, the Hawaii Historical Society Archives, the Hawaii State Archives and the Hawaii State Libraries.
As a result, this research intensively analyzed diplomatic consciousness of American mainstream among political cartoons published in such contemporary newspapers and magazines, and revealed that there was a visual paradigm of racial discrimination based on "White Supremacy" to indigenous people and citizens of their overseas possessions.
