摘要/Abstract

内容摘要： 本文重新考量太平洋战争期间两代居美日裔之间的分歧,进而阐释他们各自对战时横遭监禁的感受。居美日侨第二代（Nisei）的活动分子为自己的囚禁申诉,力争平反补偿。他们既为居美第一代的父母（Issei）代言,又时常批评他们,揣测第一代甘于沉默和随之而来的一种政治寂静无为主义。日裔第二代作家,如山本久惠和约翰·冈田,在描写日裔囚禁经历的文学作品里针对第一代的威严塑造了种种令人不安的形象。然而,杰出的日裔艺术家小圃千浦在其战时创作的作品里展示出一种含意深邃的安慰,从环绕监禁营地四周的自然景观中汲取力量。本文通过重估小圃在这场政治危机期间的美学修炼和示范,来阐述滋生日裔第一代的韧性和第二代的沮丧、并使前者成了后者的政治负担的这段历史缘由。

Abstract: This article reconsiders a generational division that has come to define Japanese American understandings of their wartime incarceration during the Pacific War. The Nisei, or second-generation, activists who testified against their incarceration and struggled for redress spoke for and sometimes against their first-generation Issei parents, instituting assumptions of Issei silence and an attendant political quietism. Literary renderings of Japanese internment by Nisei authors, Hisaye Yamamoto and John Okada, present disturbing portrayals of Issei authority, but the wartime art of Chiura Obata, a prominent Japanese American artist, demonstrates a profound consolation and draws strength from the natural landscape that surrounded the internment camp. Reconsidering Obata’s aesthetic discipline and tutelage in this period of political crisis, this article elaborates on the legacy of Issei resilience and Nisei despondence, in which the former became a political liability for the latter.

Key words: internment, Issei, Nisei, Hisaye Yamamoto, John Okada, Miné Okubo, Chiura Obata
