| Research Abstract |
We studied representation of the war that was made as an image in popular culture, from a viewpoint of the gender. For example, a many war images are made by some movies ("OTOKOTATINOYAMATO" or "RENGOKANTAI" etc) and tourism (CHIRAN or "YAMATO-MUSEUM" etc), or a lot of plastic models. Femininity or childishness is related with children's books or cartoon film works ("HOTARUNOHAKA" or "GARASUNOUSAGI" etc). Each war (Okinawa war, an atom bomb or an air raid, etc) were accepted in society by many kinds of media. Having taken the above into account, we paid attention to popular culture which spread representation of the war. Furthermore, we clarified a war image constructed transversely by media.
