Japanese Theater, Publishing Culture, and Authorship
International Workshop

403 Kent Hall, Columbia University, New York City

The age of new media (with its incessant borrowing, remixing, rewriting, and transmedial cross-overs) has led to a world in which cultural production often emerges out of groups and multiple mediators, raising the question of authorship and ownership. This workshop rethinks the notion of the “author,” moving away from an author-centric model to explore notions of collective and collaborative production. What are the implications of a non-author-centric model for understanding theater, for understanding issues of training, actor lineage, and performance? The workshop also addresses the role of publishing and print in the construction of the early modern and modern author.
This workshop follows up on the earlier symposium “Rethinking Authorship in Japan and the World” (March 2017) but with a focus on Japanese theater (Noh and Kabuki) and publishing culture.
多様なメディアの交差(クロスオーバー)、相互借用、リミックス、改編が絶え間なく行われる今日の新メディア環境において、集団や複数の媒介者による文化生産活動が頻繁にみられる。そうしたなかで、作者や所有権とは何を意味するのであろうか。作品とは、誰に作られ、誰のものであるといえるのか。作者、所有者、さらには制作物の内容の境界線までもが曖昧になるなか、様々なメディアにおける文化の生産と享受をどのように考えていけばよいのであろうか。Authorということばはまた、authority(権威)と関連する。文化生産に携わる複数の当事者の役割や権能の競合関係はどのように働いているのだろうか。今日のこうした問題は、東アジアにおいてとりわけ関係が深い。というのも、伝統的に師弟関係や権威ある先例が尊重され、意図的な模倣、広範にわたる引用・借用・翻案、そして集団的制作が、教育的手段ならびに文芸・芸能・美術工芸をはじめとした文化生産の実践方法として盛んに行われてきたからである。
2017年3月のシンポジウムでは、<作者>をめぐる以上のような問題について、近代の作者中心モデル構築の歴史性を見極め、さまざまに異なる作者のあり方・概念・機能とその変遷を東アジアとヨーロッパとの比較的コンテクストにおいて歴史的に考察することをめざした。これに引き続き、2018年3月のワークショップでは、とりわけ日本における伝統芸能、能と歌舞伎に焦点をあてる。
