Quietude considers Korean Hiroshima victims' uses of voice, speech, song, and movement in the struggle for national and global recognition, in the ongoing work of negotiating their traumatic past, and in the effort to consolidate and maintain selves and relationships in the present.
This study focuses on the everyday lives of first- and second-generation Korean bomb victims and radiation sufferers in the city of Hapcheon, the hometown of laborers sent to wartime Hiroshima...Recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty.
Joshua D. Pilzer is Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology at the University of Toronto. His first book, Hearts of Pine, is about singing in the lives of Korean survivors of the Japanese "comfort women" system. He is currently conducting fieldwork for an ethnography of the voice in everyday life in contemporary Japan, focused on the uses of speaking and singing voices in pedagogies of propriety, authority and legitimate violence.
