The history of the unspeakable: Shimokawa Masaharu’s The forgotten history of evacuation     

Jason Morgan 《Inter-Asia Cultural Studies》2018,19(4):644-654

ABSTRACT

Histories of wartime Japan often focus on the Japanese home islands after Japan’s surrender to Allied forces on 15 August 1945. Japanese citizens living in Korea, Manchuria, and elsewhere in the far-flung Japanese Empire are usually left out of the historiographical record. In a new book about the evacuees—hikiagesha—from the defunct Empire, Shimokawa Masaharu presents a vivid, harrowing portrait of the suffering of those who had to make their way back to Japan after the end of the Greater East Asia War. In particular, Shimokawa focuses on Izumi Sei’ichi, who established a sanatorium and abortuary in Fukuoka for women who had been raped by enemy soldiers.  相似文献   

The ‘White Man’s Game’? West Indian Cricket Tours of the 1900s     

Geoffrey Levett 《国际体育史杂志》2017,34(7-8):599-618

The 1900s saw two tours of the United Kingdom (UK) by a mixed race cricket team representing the West Indies. This paper argues that the tours were part of a concerted cultural campaign largely organized by the West India Committee to raise the profile of the British West Indian colonies in the Mother Country in the light of competition for favour among the settler colonies. It analyzes the selection of the team and its reception in the UK to argue that the existing literature has been mistaken in portraying the team to have been subject to consistent hostility due to the inclusion of black players in the touring party. Rather it is argued that the team of 1900 was largely welcomed as a truly representative West Indian team but that by 1906 a tightening of the definition of who could represent the empire on the sports field, influenced by the settlement of the South Africa War, meant that mixed race cricket would be rejected and the West Indians unjustly excluded from the Imperial Cricket Conference, which became an all whites club.  相似文献

Knots in the Fourth Dimension     

《Cultural and Social History》2013,10(1):31-49

ABSTRACT

The article analyses a debate that preoccupied the Russian press in the winter of 1878/9. Writers, journalists and scientists discussed whether mathematics could explain spiritualist séance phenomena. At its core, this was an assessment of social change and a debate about the ambiguity of modern life. While spiritualists hoped to bridge the divide between science and religion, subjectivity and objectivity, their opponents feared that séance phenomena and modern mathematics undermined a rationalist world-view that was endowed with reliability and universal truth. That no agreement could be reached indicates that the post-reform public sphere had become truly pluralist and modern.  相似文献

20世纪殖民统治期间香港社会心理的变迁及影响     

俞悦  蔡鑫 《哈尔滨学院学报》2015,(1)

香港作为高度繁荣的国际大都会,已成为仅次于纽约和伦敦的全球第三大金融中心。香港回归已有十六年,但与内地之间似乎一直存在着一道难以跨越的鸿沟,使得两地之间经常产生民众纠纷、文化矛盾、意识形态认识的冲突。追根溯源,其中的原因与漫长的英国殖民统治有着密不可分的关系。正是在这段时期里香港社会历经了领土遭遇割让、地区被迫投降、经济高速发展、主权确认回归等诸多事件,才形成了一次次的社会心理变迁,最终发展成为了如今香港地区社会心理的一个基本雏形。  相似文献
