Abstract

This paper explores the placement and function of the discipline of geography in the expansion of the Japanese empire, doing so through the prism of the work and field research of Tada Fumio, a leading geographer in Japan both before and after 1945. This examination of this aspect of Tada Fumio's career and its interweaving with the construction and consolidation of Japan's empire will broaden recent studies of imperial Japan's simultaneous encounter with geopolitics and fascism while engaging with Japan's developing ideas about geography as a political and cultural discipline. This paper demonstrates the importance of the entwined histories of Japanese and German geographers in the Japanese empire, as well as documenting Tada Fumio's activities in Manchuria (northeast China) and on the Korean peninsula. Finally, the paper reveals fissures in the historical record of Japanese geographers in continental Asia and, until such time as more subaltern voices can be found, seeks to lay down the foundation for further research on the study of geography in the Japanese empire.

支离破碎的地域:多田文雄与满洲、蒙江和朝鲜的日本帝国
本文通过 1945 年前后日本著名地理学家多田文雄的工作和实地研究,探讨地理学科在日本帝国扩张过程中的地位和作用。对多田文雄职业生涯的这一方面及其与日本帝国的建设和巩固交织在一起的研究,将拓宽近年来对日本帝国同时遭遇地缘政治和法西斯主义的研究,同时涉及日本对地理学作为一门政治和文化学科的发展理念。本文论证了日本和德国地理学家在日本帝国的纠缠历史的重要性,并记录了多田文雄在满洲(中国东北)和朝鲜半岛的活动。最后,本文揭示了日本地理学家在亚洲大陆的历史记录中存在的裂痕,并试图为进一步研究日本帝国的地理学奠定基础,直至找到更多的次等声音。
