• W2129287792 abstract "Following the rise of interest and critical engagement with literature on sexualities, readers in English-speaking areas have also been able to enjoy innovative works on the history of Japanese homosexuality over the last two decades. These surveys illustrate modes and practices of sexualities in Japan that show a hybridity between local rubrics and western ideas, including modern sexology introduced and popularised in Japan from the last quarter of the nineteenth century. In Homosexuality and Manliness in Post-war Japan, Jonathan D. Mackintosh hopes to challenge the ingrained and dichotomous framework of ‘West’ and ‘Rest’, which he believes existing scholarship on Japanese homosexuality maintains (pp. 7–11). Rather, the author is interested in depicting the ‘convoluted and contradictory configurations of emotions and imaginations that shape homosexual hybridity in Japan's post-war post-colonial/neo-colonial’ (p. 10). Mackintosh's argument relies primarily on his analysis of four magazines, supplemented by other popular sources and some interviews. The magazines, all first published in the 1970s and aimed at men who loved men, are Barazoku (‘rose tribe’), The Adonis Boy, and its reissued Adon, and finally Sabu. The book consists of two parts with two chapters each. Chapter one focuses on the philosophy of the two individuals, Itō Bungaku and Minami Teishirō, who, respectively, launched Barazoku in July 1971 and The Adonis Boy in December 1972. Chapter two is the strongest. In it, Mackintosh compares two fictional works, a short story published in the first issue of Barazoku in 1971 and a ‘Sodomite's novel’ (sodomiya shōsetsu) that appeared in 1954 in a pulp magazine dealing with ‘perverse sexual desire’ (p. 220). Both depict a relationship between a Japanese male protagonist and his white male American lover, but because of the time-lag between the two publications, they portray differently the ideal of homosexual masculinity infused by the ‘eugenic imagination’ (p. 104). The analysis illustrates how sexual-racial politics under US–Japan relations in a broader sense shifted from the early 1950s (when Japan was still under occupation by the American-led Allied Forces) to the 1970s (when the country was seen as a booming economic miracle), and elucidates how the change was interwoven with the depiction of manliness in homosexual and cross-cultural erotic and romantic encounters. The second part of the book focuses on self-advertisements in the magazines. Chapter three dives into the discourse analysis of what Mackintosh calls ‘eroto-morphemes’, the ‘terms and expressions that appear in the ads to communicate and articulate the physical and affective body itself’ (p. 152). The final chapter analyses the significance of individuals' ages being included in the advertisements, and the semantics of manliness in post-war Japan imbued with an imagined male homosexual relationship that was built upon age differentiation." @default.
