| 内容記述 | When Lafcadio Hearn (1850-1904) arrived in Japan in 1890, the country was in the midst of a period of globalization not unlike the situation today. As part of the effort to modernize in the face of encroaching Western powers, Meiji-period leaders implemented significant educational reform, including a heavy emphasis on English. When Hearn took up his first teaching post at Matsue Middle School, he joined a growing wave of foreign teachers hired to teach English at schools throughout Japan. Despite minimal knowledge of Japan prior to his arrival, he would become one of the best-known interpreters of Meiji Japan to the Western world. Hearn possessed an unusually broad worldview, derived in part from his status as a perpetual outsider - one not fully identifiable with any one ethnic group or nationality - who had wandered the globe since infancy. He would apply these lifetime experiences to his observations of Japan, to offer interpretations not bound by the conventional norms of the times. This paper examines Hearn’s writings on Japan within the context of his life experiences, arguing for an interpretation of Hearn as a precursor to today’s notion of the global citizen. After examining the factors which led to his status as perpetual outsider, I consider links between these experiences and his writings on Japan. | |||||
