| Research Abstract |
This study has traced the historical development from a "national narrative," a public cultural discourse addressed in response to "the culture of defeat," to a private discourse of literature, as found in the US South and modern Japan, both of which shared the historical fate of experiencing the belated modernization in the middle of the 19th century, by analyzing various types of cultural texts produced in the involved processes of their own peculiar "modernizations" in the aftermath of their cultural defeats, thereby to open up a new perspective with which to compare these two complex "modern" literatures.
