| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
Vast numbers of repatriates undertook voyages of return across Asia at the end of World War II, and their memories of migration and return were often recorded and reinterpreted through the medium of literature. This project expands upon recent literary and historical analyses of such "repatriation literature" (hikiage bungaku) in Japan by engaging in a cross-cultural investigation of postwar repatriation narratives across Asia. It applies insights from the study of Japanese repatriation literature to new contexts and investigates the mutual influence of repatriation narratives across borders.

| 研究実績の概要 |
This project continues to contribute to the study of postwar repatriation narratives in Asia through its careful consideration of the connections between works of Japanese-language repatriation literature (known as hikiage bungaku) and literature written in a variety of languages about postwar voyages from Japan to other Asian nations.
Millions of returnees crossed Asia to reach old or new homelands in the aftermath of World War II, including repatriates to Japan (usually called hikiagesha), but the consequences of this mass migration event have remained understudied for decades. The cross-cultural analysis undertaken by this project not only expands our understanding of postwar Japanese literature by situating it in a broader international context, but also highlights the importance of overlooked narratives from other areas of Asia where the concept of "repatriation literature" has so far failed to gain traction. Through an examination of how the effects of repatriation have been recorded in literature, the project grants us new insight into both postwar history and contemporary societies across Asia. The diverse writings from Japan, the Korean Peninsula, China, Micronesia, and the Soviet Union juxtaposed by this project illustrate the richness of postwar repatriation narratives and reveal how many crucial postwar experiences were shared by writers and migrants from a range of geographic regions.

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
During the second year of the research project, emphasis shifted from collection of new materials to the evaluation of materials already on hand, visits to remote archives including the Micronesian Area Research Center in Guam, and participation in international conferences in South Korea, the United States, and Japan. In particular, the improving international travel situation made it possible to present research results on organized panels to audiences at the annual conference of the Association for Asian Studies and at the annual AAS-in-Asia conference. Presentations at these conferences focused both on the key bidirectional aspect of postwar migration in Asia, and on how postwar migration events in Asia have been memorialized in literature across a number of languages. I was also able to act as a commentator for the presentations of international researchers focusing on similar themes at other conferences in Japan and South Korea.
Participation in additional conferences and workshops has been confirmed for the 2024 academic year, and writing developed on the basis of past conference activity will result in the release of multiple international publications before the end of the project term.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Analysis of archival materials related to postwar repatriation in Asia will continue to address the new questions about historical memory and its lacunae that have emerged over the course of the research project. Articles written on these topics are already scheduled to reach the publication stage during the 2024 academic year. Further, because work will proceed in several languages this year, there will be many opportunities to involve international researchers in the process of completing the project.
Continued participation in major international conferences, such as the annual Modern Language Association conference in New Orleans in January 2025, will present opportunities to consult with editors at English-language academic presses about the publication of a book-length study involving the comparative analysis of repatriation literatures across Asia.
