해항도시 부산의 일본인지역사회 형성과 종교 : 지역과 국가의 관점에서 본 불교와 신사|RISS 상세보기

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study analyzed the Japanese community and religion in Busan, a seaport city, from 1876 to 1910. Specifically, it examined the formation and changing process and social roles of Japanese Buddhist temples and shrines in the city and also the impacts of an overseas Japanese community on the foundation of a modern nation in Japan. The study sought after the three following goals: first, it set out to make a preliminary argument about the need to have both Japan itself and overseas Japanese communities in mind when discussing the foundation of modern Japan after the Meiji Restoration, which was why the investigator chose Busan for analysis. The seaport city offers a window into the process of the Japanese community(Waegwan) formed in the pre-modern times being transformed into the community of modern nature(Japanese concession). The severance from the past and the continuous parts with the past in those changes would show the characteristics of the modernization of the concerned community and Japan. The second goal of the study was to specifically examine those facts by focusing on the religious aspects of the Japanese community in Busan including the Buddhist temples and shrines. During the formation of a modern nation in Japan, religion made a contribution to the reformation of the people through the ideology of the emperor system. In the Japanese community of Busan, religion helped Japanese people settle down in a foreign country and keep their identity as the people of Japan. As a result, it functioned as part of modern nation of Japan even though it was formed overseas. The final goal of the study was to illuminate cross-cultural contacts and conflicts in the seaport city through concrete fact relations based on those findings. It especially focused on Tsushima between Japan and Joseon and the active roles of its residents in the background of the Japanese community in Busan.
