Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, I examined what kind of problem consciousness the playwright Rio Kishida had in the 1990s and interacted with Korean culture through interviews, resource acquisition and analysis of works in Korea. As a result, I saw the aspect of private exchanges behind Kishida's interest in Korean culture. Besides, many of the resources related to Kishida were privately owned, and the whereabouts of the resources were not open to the public. In that situation, it is difficult for researchers who are interested in Kishida's work to access the resources, so I conducted an investigation and arrangement to make the whereabouts of Kishida's resources available to the public.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

劇作家岸田理生の研究は1980年代のものが多く、90年代の研究はほぼ行われていない。本研究は、まず岸田の基礎研究として学術的に意義がある。さらに、日本の小劇場界と韓国小劇場界との草の根的な初期の交流史の一端が明らかになり、今後の日本演劇文化研究と文化交流史研究へとつながる。また、資料のアーカイブとウエブ公開に向けての調査と整理は、資料の散逸を防ぐ点と後続の研究者や岸田作品に関心のあるひとびとの資料へのアクセスの簡易化につながる点で、社会的に意義がある。
