项目摘要

The main themes of this study are below.(1) To investigate American literature and films in the USA, and see through the fictionalized constructions in the form of "American culture" during later 19th and early 20th in order to know the "true" or " real " American People who lived those days.(2) To make sure the constructive relations among literature such as Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe, and popular culture such as Jim Crow and minstrel show, and early films directed by Edwin Porter such as Uncle Tom's Cabin, Life of an American Fireman and The Great Train Robbery.(3) Compare the 19th canon literature such as novels by Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville, in relation with popular culture such as best-seller novels, popular dramas and street performances. Especially, I tried to shed light upon the creative activities of Nathaniel Hawthorne, in order to put focus on his hidden "political intention" of his age.(4) The study of parallelism between "white supremacy" story tradition in Hollywood and the master piece, The Birth of Nation, directed by D. W. Grifith, the so-called "Father of American Films."(5) Taking up the first talkie film, Jazz Singer, I tried to investigate the relationship between the process of turning the Jews into white people, and the popularity of Jazz as music.(6) The gender study of Film Noir, focusing on "screen beauty" with "bluest eye and blond and white skin."

这项研究的主要主题如下。(1)通过对19世纪末20世纪初美国文学和电影的考察，透视19世纪末20世纪初美国文学和电影中以“美国文化”为形式的虚构结构，以了解生活在那个时代的“真实的”或“真实的“美国人。(2)以哈里特比彻斯托的《汤姆叔叔的小屋》为代表的文学作品与以《吉姆·克劳》和《吟游诗人》为代表的流行文化以及以埃德温·波特为代表的早期电影《汤姆叔叔的小屋》、《美国消防员的生活》和《火车大劫案》之间的关系。(3)比较19世纪的经典文学，如纳撒尼尔霍桑和赫尔曼梅尔维尔的小说，与流行文化，如畅销小说，流行戏剧和街头表演。特别是对纳撒尼尔·霍桑的创作活动进行了梳理，以揭示他那个时代隐藏的“政治意图”。(4)好莱坞“白色至上”的故事传统与美国导演D。W.格里菲斯，被称为“美国电影之父”。“（5）拿起第一部有声电影《爵士歌手》，我试图调查犹太人变成白色人的过程与爵士乐作为音乐的流行之间的关系。(6)黑色电影的性别研究，聚焦于“蓝眼睛、金发和白色皮肤”的“银幕美女”。"
