抄録
Kenichi Tani’s The Fukushima Trilogy (2019) relates the fifty-year history of both a Fukushima town and the Hozumi family whose destiny is intertwined with the nuclear power plants. Part 1, 1961: The Sun Which Rises at Night, describes how the town decides to construct a nuclear power plant. In Part 2, 1986: Mobius’ Ring, its protagonist, a long-term critic of nuclear technology, is driven into a paradoxical position of enacting policies geared toward the nuclear power industry as the mayor. Part 3, 2011: The Words to Be Spoken, focuses on a local TV station struggling to show the post-earthquake lives of inhabitants. This paper mainly analyzes the second play of the trilogy. which is partly inspired by Thornton Wilder’s Our Town (1938). In it, the Stage Manager represents everyday life in a small American town while 1986: Mebius’ Ring has the Hozumi family’s dog as the narrator. The dog’s words reveal the particularity and the universality of the town where the nuclear power plants are located. Furthermore, the dog shows the risk of using imagination for technology. Tani’s trilogy urges the audience to consider the danger of imagination as well as its potential for understanding the agony of disaster victims.
