'Genbaku Otome: Reconsidering the “Hiroshima Maidens”' with Kim Brandt, Columbia University

Outside the School “Hiroshima Maidens” loosely translates genbaku otome, a phrase first used in early 1950s Japan to refer to young women who had been scarred by injuries received during the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.  Ten years later, 25 such women were flown to New York, where they underwent extensive reconstructive surgery.  The “Maidens” received wide publicity in both the U.S. and Japan, where the story resonated with growing anxiety about nuclear weapons, along with public fascination with new forms of beauty culture and the seemingly limitless potential of postwar technology.  This talk explores American, and especially Japanese, perspectives on the episode, to reconsider its significance within a broader international context.   Kim Brandt is Research Scholar at the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University. She specializes in twentieth-century Japanese history. Brandt’s publications include Kingdom of Beauty: Mingei and the Politics of Folk Art in Imperial Japan (Duke University… Event interval: Single day event. Campus location: Thomson Hall (THO).

'Escaping the Highway to Hell: Death, the Afterlife, and Buddhist Practice in Premodern Japan' with Miriam Chusid, University of Washington

Outside the School Join us for the 2024 Griffith and Patricia Way Lecture. What was the moment of death supposed to look like for people living in premodern Japan? While most people surely envisioned seeing the Buddha and his retinue descend at this crucial juncture, many more were undoubtedly anxious about the feasibility of achieving this goal in increasingly difficult times. What if, despite one’s best intentions, one still fell into hell? Or, what if one’s gender precluded the possibility of salvation at the time of death altogether? This talk interrogates two sets of fourteenth-century hell paintings owned by the temples Gokurakuji in Hyōgo Prefecture and Konkaikōmyōji in Kyoto, which both posit the possibility of early escape from the infernal realms, albeit in seemingly contradictory ways. By examining the various Buddhist narrative tales (setsuwa) embedded in both of these paintings, this talk will uncover the ways people in premodern Japan transformed hell from a place solely retributive in nature into one that had… Event interval: Single day event.
