This paper aims at examining the process of creation and change of readers' community in the magazine "Jyogaku Sekai". For this purpose, I analyzed the letters from readers, and discussed about the historical transition of their writing and communication style. Through a past quantitative analysis, it became clear that a large change has occurred around 1916. At first, a major function of the readers' column was exchanging information about daily life, postcards, books, and etc. However, around 1916, the function of exchanging information disappeared, and the letters of readers became more fictional, romantic, and daydreaming. A use of pen name, graceful style of writing, and sentimental motif spread among girls, these elements established the friendships of readers, and the romantic community was made by the function trough the magazine. I summarize that the large change has occurred based on the decline in the age of readers, the expansion of female magazine market, and development of girl culture in Taisho era.

This study aims to examine the influence of the Espionage Act of 1917 on freedom of the press in the United States. This article consists of the following sections. The first section introduces the outline of the system for classifying state secrets and the Espionage Act. The second section presents problems in the Espionage Act regarding freedom of the press. The third section provides cases that show the tendency to broadly apply the Espionage Act. The last section considers the strict control of access to information under the Espionage Act by the Obama administration. This study concludes that the Espionage Act has had a damaging effect on freedom of the press for the following reasons. Prosecuting people who divulge information brings about the chilling effect of furnishing the information. Government officials are increasingly afraid to talk to journalists. This situation is especially serious in the Obama administration compared with all previous U.S. administrations because of the aggressive prosecution of people who have divulged classified information. Although the Justice Department has never prosecuted journalists for violating the Espionage Act, there are dangerous attempts to prosecute individuals who act like journalists. In addition, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against a journalist forced to reveal his source who disclosed information illegally. Laws and systems for protecting state secrets in which provisions are ambiguous and interpretations thereof are arbitrary infringe on civil liberties. Moreover, broad electronic information surveillance also deters sources from providing information to journalists. These problems occur not only in the United States but in Japan also. Because the Special Secrecy Law in Japan has no regard for the people's right to know, conditions in Japan will worsen with the enforcement of this law.

The audience has been caught from the passive / active audience to the diffused state of audience image by the socio-cultural positions. However, the present approach is only to discuss the semantic interpretations of the contents of media. In this paper, the audience experience about "passivity of shock" is mentioned. It is connected with the view of "body as a field." And by reconsidering the perspective that grasps audience / image, it is argued critically that the conventional "passivity" cannot deal with the problem of "passivity of shock." Furthermore, this paper proposes the direction in which "passivity" concept is reconsidered.

The paper attempts to relate two modes of enjoying music for audience. One is identifying with others or ideas through interpreting about the meaning. The other is the identification toward nothingness through the textural reception of sounds. The way of discussion is to reconsider the body of audience as a field theoretically. This paper suggests that there are four directions of enjoying music with the change of the image of a body. In conclusion, the experience of music audience is that the multilayer images of a body are changing and being connected with each other in the process of reception.

<p>This paper examines video games in order to discuss roles played by media culture during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, people spent a large amount of their time playing communication-oriented games, such as "Animal Crossing: New Horizons," or social multiplayer games on smartphones. This trend is an extension of the casual revolution in video games since the 2000s.</p><p>Notably, however, communication-oriented games during the pandemic also seem to offer alternative means for casual ordinary communication in the abnormal reality imposed by the pandemic. Their popularity is a sign of new roles played by media culture and games.</p>

This thesis deals with the image produced by Japanese dramas which were broadcasted in Taiwan mainly from 1992 to 2000. Comparing with the other dramas broadcasted in Taiwan during that period, Japanese dramas had a bourgeoisie feel in taste and fashion. The filming techniques also created the air of romance. The consumer desires were prompted by such air and a romanticized Japanese image was contrived by the Taiwanese audience through these Japanese dramas. Thus, when the audience visited Japan, they felt a gap between the image and the reality.

This study analyzes the messages written about the Japanese television program "24-Hour Television: Love Saves the Earth" on the website "2 channel," the most popular online community in Japan. The study explores the comments on this television program in the online community by evaluating the features of TV watching when the program is viewed with writing messages online, and examines the various motives of the contributors of writing online. Previous studies indicated that internet users tend to be involved in "24-Hour Television"; hence, this study also explores why this show attracts so many internet users. Text mining of the messages written in "2 channel" revealed that people wrote comments as same time as they were watching TV. In their comments, the words used to express their impressions of the TV show were "kando (impression)" and "gizen (hypocrisy)." These comments suggest that the major features of their TV watching style are "tsukkomi" (to play the straight man) and "urayomi" (to guess behind the production of this show). The results also suggest that the main motive for writing their comments in the online community is social interaction (to share their emotions with the show and their watching experiences). Hence from comments on this show, it is suggested that this show's live in "2 channel" has already annual event to "2 channel" users and this show's characteristics maybe fit for live in "2 channel". It also seems that the motives for writing messages in community sites while watching TV and the features of TV programs that stimulate online messages may be common to all messages about TV in online community sites.

This paper aims to clarify class-consciousness and its changing processappeared in popular newspapers in early modern Japan. The research is basedon a study of the /Yomiuri Shimbun/, /Tokyo Eiri Shimbun/, /Kanayomi Shimbun/and some other newspapers in 1870s. Until 1877, in the trend of civilization, writers and contributors of popularnewspapers had admonished urban people who were mainly comprised of artisansand rickshaw drivers. But from mid-1877, as the trend became weaker, themedia began to consider it unnecessary to admonish them anymore, and startedto call them“ inferior class”

The purpose of this paper is to clarify how the category that applies to young people was carried out in national newspapers in Japan. Recent research in Japan criticizing discourses on the youth in mass media through empirical data has increased. Researchers insist that many of the discourses on the youth were stereotypes that ignored their diversity. However, in the only studies that are intended to dismantle the clarity of discourses on the youth, the question of why non-empirical discourses have been accepted by the reading public has been overlooked. Given these issues of concern, this research uses conceptual analysis in ethnomethodical research to understand how the category that applies to young people was carried out. Ethnomethodology aims to clarify the operational norms that make it possible to understand their act by describing how people use categories and concepts. In precious studies, other researches have focused on seinen and wakamono: seinen roughly means youth while wakamono means young people. The subject of analysis is articles in national newspapers from the 1950s to the 1960s, which used seinen and wakamono categories. This analysis revealed that in mass media the carrying out of seinen and wakamono as categories actually had various activities. These categories were never intended to be only stereotypes, rather they have allowed for many activities other than understanding the actual conditions of young people. Seinen was associated with organized institutions, with strong ties to educational oppotunities for men and women. Wakamono was associated with non-institutional groups, and it was also associated with the mass media's self-describing and synthesizing practice. By way of this function, these categories were affecting the way of segmentation and how newspapers create an understanding of young people.

This study tries to examine Stuart Hall's milestone work, 'Encoding/Decoding' which brought the starting point for new audience researches. First, Hall's dialectical method which was elaborated through close reading of Marx's texts is considered as the core of theoretical backgrounds and the source of critical power for the Encoding/Decoding model. Second, criticism of class reductionism towards the model is examined in order to identify Hall's theoretical standing position after Gramsi's thought was positively introduced. Third, the model's possibility as a formula to research globalism which is going on in the communications field is suggested.

Following the publication of major newspapers addressed to the intelligentsia, there emerged a number of popular papers which were mainly directed toward the general public by the extensive use of furikana on the Chinese characters. These popular papers were relatively cheap and widely read, added an entertainment aspect to other papers, and functioned as a means of developing a new style of written Japanese. The ultimate objective of the present study is to clarify the development process of the new style of the language adopted by three representative popular papers, Yomiuri Shinbun, Tokyo Eiri Shinbun and Kanayomi Shinbun, during the period from 1875 to 1880. For this purpose, this study attempts to identify the nature and characteristics of regular readers by analyzing 8,352 letters from approximately 3,700 readers. Major findings of the present study are as follows: (1) Nearly half the letters were in fact contributed from regular readers, who accounted for a small proportion of the public. However, more than 70 percent of the contributors were residents of Tokyo, especially from the downtown sections of Asakusa, Nihonbashi, Fukagawa, and Shitaya. Of the 59 contributors for whom details could be ascertained, 57 were male and about half were merchants while the other half were of samurai origin and now professionally engaged in journalism or public service. (2) Regular contributors formed an informal support group for these papers and often gathered at the publisher in order to have direct communication. Their letters functioned as a source of news for other readers. More importantly, the conversation within the group was often directly written up as letters, thus preparing the way for the formation of a new style of written Japanese language.

The interest concerning “edutainment” has been increasing. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the circumstances and the factor of the appearance of the teaching materials using the manga of “Doraemon” as an example of edutainment for school children by comparing it to the original manga. There's conflict between manga and education, essentially. Therefore, various adjustments were required in order to appropriate manga to education as edutainment. There are two points. First, manga was evaluated as a positive form of information media; secondly, the original element of entertainment of the manga has been lost due to the educational aim.

This paper examines the historical processes of the radio broadcasting system of the Manchurian Telegraph and Telephone Company (MTTC), which was the only broadcasting company in Manchukuo, and clarifies how radio media was used to rule Manchukuo. In particular, this paper focuses on the difference between Channel One, which was mainly for Japanese residents broadcast in Japanese, and Channel Two, which was mainly for the Chinese in their own language. First of all, it was strongly anticipated that the radio enterprise of the MTTC would build a "Manchurian national identity." However, the MTTC had to apply a multilingual broadcasting policy, concentrate on the popularization of radio receivers and the establishment of a broadcasting institution. This was because the number of radio listeners in the Manchukuo was too low, there was not enough broadcasting equipment, and what existed was of poor quality. As such, the MTTC was unable to pay sufficient attention to programs aimed at integrating the Manchurian nation. As a result of prioritizing the popularizing of radio broadcasting, the broadcasting policies for Channels One and Two differed. Each channel mainly broadcasted programs which catered to their respective cultures. Their programs, which strongly reflected their cultural backgrounds, were broadcast even on important days like the foundation anniversary of Manchukuo. As a result, the radio system of the MTTC couldn't create a Manchurian national identity; however, it allowed many amateur and local artists living in north-eastern China to broadcast all over Manchukuo. Although the MTTC radio system failed to create the ideology of a Manchurian nation, it was able to create a means of cultural collaboration by serving the residents of the Manchukuo with a single radio system and by opening the stage of radio broadcasting for many amateur and local artists.
