Emerging from Japan?s cities in the late 1920's, kamishibai rapidly transformed from a cheap amusement associated with poverty into the most popular form of juvenile entertainment, eclipsing even film and manga. By the time kamishibai died as a living medium in the 1970's it had left behind indelible influences on popular culture forms such as manga and anime, as well as on avant-garde cinema, theater, and art. From 1932 to 1945, however, kamishibai also became a vehicle for propaganda messages aimed not primarily at children, but at adults. A mixture of script, image, and performance, the medium was particularly suited to conveying populist, emotionally compelling messages to audiences of all classes, ages, and literacy levels, making it a crucial tool in the government?s efforts to mobilize the domestic populace in Japan and to pacify the inhabitants of the empire?s colonies and occupied territories. With seven complete translations of wartime plays, over 300 color illustrations from hard-to-access kamishibai play cards, and photographs of prewar performances, this study constitutes an archive of wartime history in addition to providing a detailed analysis of the rhetoric of political persuasion. 410 0$aJapanese visual culture ;$vVolume 13. 606 $aKamishibai$xHistory and criticism 606 $aSino-Japanese War, 1937-1945$xPropaganda 606 $aSino-Japanese War, 1937-1945$vArt and the war 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zJapan$xPropaganda 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zJapan$vArt and the war 606 $aPropaganda, Japanese$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWar and theater$zJapan$y20th century$y20th century 606 $aWar and society$zJapan$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aJapan$xSocial life and customs$y1912-1945 615 0$aKamishibai$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aSino-Japanese War, 1937-1945$xPropaganda. 615 0$aSino-Japanese War, 1937-1945 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xPropaganda. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 615 0$aPropaganda, Japanese$xHistory 615 0$aWar and theater 615 0$aWar and society$xHistory 676 $a950 700 $aOrbaugh$b Sharalyn$01641190 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812826403321 996 $aPropaganda performed$93985151 997 $aUNINA
