Depicted Images of Foreigners in the Modern Period : Japan, China, and the Western World.

本研究的重点是跨越学科界限，分析欧洲、中国和日本的视觉资源中所描绘的异国情调或异国情调。通过积极的辩论，所有有关成员共同努力，考虑这些地区的图片杂志和电影。在这样做时，我们分别从多边角度考虑了“外国”或“外来”的含义。首先，我们开始对“外国人”形象进行分析，然后我们逐渐扩大了我们的研究对象。最后，我们对城市、政治、制度、叙事、科技等一系列“外国题材”的视觉形象进行了思考，在这份最终报告中，我们的努力达到了8篇论文，每一篇都充满了非传统的视角。通过我们的讨论，我们敏锐地意识到跨学科分析的重要性。我们研究的下一步必须在这条线上。此外，我们进一步研究的另一个课题应包括从国际媒体报道的角度分析战争等国际事件。

In this research project, the focal point is to analyze the foreignness or exoticism depicted in the visual sources of Europe, China, and Japan, across the disciplinary boundaries. Through energetic debates, all the members concerned have jointly worked on considering the pictorial magazines and films of these areas. In doing so, we respectively considered from a multilateral standpoint how it means to be "foreign", or to be "exotic". First of all, we embarked on the analysis of the images of "foreigners", and then we gradually expanded our subjects. Finally, we reached the consideration of a wide range of visual images of "foreign subjects", including city, politics, institution, narrative, and scientific technology.In this final report, our efforts amount to 8 theses, each of which is full of unconventional perspectives. Through our discussions, we become keenly aware of the significance of interdisciplinary analysis. The next step for our research has to come in this line. Furthermore, another subject for our further study should include the analysis of such international events as war in terms of international media coverage.
