【受賞論文】

【受賞理由】
For 2023, the selection committee commends Yoshiaki Otta's study, "Homoerotic Solutions: Colonial Queer Desire and Postwar Sexual Politics in Ōta Ryōhaku's 'Kurodaiya'" (1949), for the new analytical framework it proposes to examine colonial oppression and decolonization, offering an important revisionist reading of Ōta Ryōhaku's "Kurodaiya." Centering the narrator's homoerotic desire for a young Indonesian revolutionary allows Otta to productively engage a matrix of Japan, Okinawa, Indonesia, and the United States, thus advancing the boundary-crossing scholarship the Journal of Japanese Studies is keen to advance.
