Reconsidering Ethnographic Films of Acculturation

本文是1999 ~ 2000年科研资助项目的总结报告。日本、欧洲和美国的研究者比较和研究了电影中记录的关于文化的视觉材料，每个研究者都从自己的角度研究了这些文化的涵化。我们重新拍摄了过去的部分记录场景，然后研究了与不同文化接触所引起的文化适应，每个研究者调查了欧洲和美国博物馆和研究机构拥有的民族志电影的实际情况，研究了多媒体及其信息的各种表达，民族志电影的使用情况以及民族学和电影的历史，以及重新拍摄所引起的文化适应。在实地考察方面，我们访问了欧洲（特别是法国、德国和英国）和美国保存或收集视觉材料的机构，完成了我们的研究，以举办专题展览，并于2000年7月20日<th>至11月21日举办了题为“民族学与电影的兴起<st>：从影子剧场到多媒体”第二次世界大战后，从视觉材料的角度来看，文化适应在发展中国家中随处可见。在大约100年前由Freres Lumiere制作的视觉材料中可以看到。请参阅我的目录，“电影的兴起”：三年研究的完整报告。

This is the final report on Research Project, Grant-In-Aid for Scientific Research from 1999 to 2000. Japanese, European and American researchers compared and examined the visual material about culture recorded in motion pictures and each researcher studied the acculturation of those cultures from his or her point of view. We re-filmed part of the recording scenes in the past, then studied the acculturation caused by the contact with a different culture.Each researcher investigated the actual condition of ethnographic films owned by the museums and institutes in Europe and USA and studied various expressions by multimedia and its information, the situation of using the ethnographic films and the history of ethnology and cinema, and the acculturation caused by re-film. For field works, we visited to study institutes conserving or collecting visual material in Europe (especially in France, Germany and UK) and USA.We completed our research in order to hold the special exhibition, then from July 20^<th> to November 21^<st> in 2000, the exhibition entitled "Ethnology and Rise of Cinema : From Shadow Theater to Multimedia" was held.The acculturation examined from a viewpoint of visual material can be seen a lot in the developing countries after World War II.Drastic changes in Japan can be seen in the visual material produced by Freres Lumiere about 100 years ago.Please refer to my catalogue, "Rise of Cinema" : the whole report of the 3-year research.
