| 摘要 | This article has two main goals for its examination of wartime diaries: (1) to argue against the idea that a diary's reliability is directly related to the degree of privacy that its author enjoyed, and (2) to suggest an alternate use for these texts by scholars-namely, the construction of the author's concept of self through acts of "self-discipline." The article briefly outlines military diary writing and reportage in modern Japan, showing how "fact" and "truth" camo to be understood in diaries. Through and examination of published and manuscript diaries, the article addresses theoretical promises such as "intended audience," "pricate languagnge," and the nature of "privacy" itself. Finally, the article provides an alternative reading of diaries: The texts represent the author's attempt an alternative reading of diardies: The texts represent the author's att=empt to construct a compelling and coherent subject position. Because diarists are involved in the construction of their identities, the article suggests that scholars use diaries to move beyond examinations of subjectivity sollty reliant on discaplinary institution. |
