SUMMARY:Takashima Talks:  The Democracy That Society Allows -- Protest Sounds in Japan and the US
DESCRIPTION:Takashima Talks: The Democracy That Society Allows — Protest Sounds in Japan and the US \nPerceived attacks on the foundations of democracy in recent years have sparked large demonstrations\, often numbering in the hundreds of thousands\, in both Japan and the US. This paper will explore the ways in which democracy is sounded differently in street protests of two densely populated cities-Tokyo and New York-as shaped by urban geography\, urban acoustics\, participatory practices\, and perhaps most importantly\, policing. Analyzing protests as an interplay between urban space\, cyberspace\, police\, and activist-musicians\, the talk considers the ways in which the sounds of street protests reflect the kind of democracy that society allows. \nWEDNESDAY\, MAY 4\, 4:00 — 6:30 PM\nUCSB Campus:  SS&MS 2135

SUMMARY:Koichi Takashima Lecture 2022:  Tawada Yōko -- Translation as Politics\, Translation as Dream
DESCRIPTION:Koichi Takashima Lecture 2022: Tawada Yōko — Translation as Politics\, Translation as Dream \nThe consistent process of disorienting geography\, maps\, and directions in Tawada Yōko’s fiction flies in the face of problematic distinctions between “areas” and the territorial boundaries they imply\, assumptions still often dominant in studies of the “boundary-crossing literature” she is taken to represent. I contend\, rather\, that Tawada invites us to understand the reading of her texts as itself a “project of translation\,” one Roland Barthes once asserted could “only be a dream.” All translation involves assuming uncertainty and risk\, and this I\, contend\, implies the political risks of translation. I put the unstable\, dream-like\, uncanny Tawada text in dialogue with contemporary theorists of translation\, including Emily Apter\, Haun Saussy\, and Gayatri Spivak. \nBrett de Bary is Professor Emerita of Asian Studies and Comparative Literature at Cornell University. Her translation of Tawada Yōko’s Borudò no gikei (2009)\, together with a critical study of the text\, is forthcoming from Columbia University Press in the volume. Tawada Yōko’s The Brother-in-Law in Bordeaux: Translation as Method.  Her essay on Tawada’s Fukushima novel\, The Emissarv (Kentöshi\, 2014) will be published this spring in Tales That Touch\, ed. Brandt and Yildiz (De Gruyter) \nTUESDAY\, MAY 10\, 4 — 5:30P M\nUCSB:  MCCUNE CONFERENCE ROOM

SUMMARY:Takashima Talks:  SPY!  The Hunt for the "Enemy Within" During the Battle of Okinawa
DESCRIPTION:THE HUNT FOR THE “ENEMY WITHIN” DURING THE BATTLE OF OKINAWA: RETHINKING WARTIME ATROCITIES DURING THE ASIA-PACIFIC WAR \nThis talk will detail the execution of Okinawans as “spies” by the Japanese military during the Battle of Okinawa\, which was the last land battle of the Asia-Pacific War\, and the one that resulted in the largest number of civilian deaths in the Pacific theater. I will foreground the fear of “spies” throughout the war in general as well as discuss different examples of spy executions\, including the killing of children as “spies” in Okinawa. Lastly\, I will discuss why these wartime atrocities were never prosecuted as war crimes\, either by the Allies or the Japanese. The end of World War Two\, the subsequent American occupation of Japan\, and the collapse of the Japanese empire were events whose convergence resulted in the destruction of categories like civilian/military and Japanese/colonial. The abrupt dissolution of these categories had wide ranging consequences on how justice and revenge were pursued in the aftermath of the war. \nWEDNESDAY\, MAY 18\, 4:00 — 5:30 PM\nHSSB 4080
