内容記述タイプ | Abstract | |||||
内容記述 | “Fence” generally means “an enclosure or barrier (e.g. a hedge, wall, railing, palisade, etc.) along the boundary of a field, park, yard, or any place which it is desired to defend from intruders” (Oxford English Dictionary). By building fences, people intentionally distinguish their place from another’s. Fences have been used as motifs in various literature and theater works. Specifically, in Japanese American literature, they are often conveyed by barbed wire fences that surrounded internment camps to distinguish Japanese Americans from Americans during World War II. Japanese American literature has tended to focus inside the fences to portray the character’s experiences in the internment camps. However, in John Hamamura’s Color of the Sea (2006), fences seem to have a different meaning. Hamamura’s work focuses on two characters, Sam Hamada and Keiko Yanagi. Sam, who is depicted as a Kibei (a second-generation Japanese American who moved to Japan as a child and returned to America later), leaves Japan at age nine and moves to Hawai‘i and mainland America. During his journey, he confronts three fences: the first one distinguishes Japanese Americans from the haole (the ruling classes in Hawai‘i), the second one separates Japanese Americans from Americans, and the third distinguishes Americans from Japanese. Keiko, depicted as a Nisei (a second-generation Japanese American), struggles with the fence that distinguishes Japanese from Americans while moving between America and Japan. Moreover, she also faces the fence that divides femininity by country, that is, between Japanese women and American women. Color of the Sea portrays the invisible fences related to identity that the characters must confront while moving between Japan and America from the 1930s to the 1940s. This paper explores the images of the fences represented in the novel in order to discuss the identity gaps the characters feel between themselves and others, and examines how these characters respond to the gaps both inside and outside the fences. | |||||
