Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An empirical research and analysis was conducted on the lives of novelist from 1950s to 1970s based on diaries and other materials. The purpose of this research was to redefine the meaning of conversion to "cultural resources" through looking at the kind of roles novelist were expected to fulfill and the extent to which they were able to satisfy those roles while the media underwent immense growth and changes during post-war period. It also examined how the market value of literature was established through individual and cross-sectional analysis with a view to political/economic background. Furthermore, a large number of "cultural resources" were uncovered following an investigation into cultural administrative entities and cultural projects such as libraries and literary museums, and it revealed how such phenomenon had spread to regions other than urban areas.
