This dissertation explores what I call the "nuclear imaginary" of postwar Japanese aesthetic expression. Nuclear imaginary refers to how Japanese writers, directors, and artists have envisioned the nuclear age in a post-Hiroshima/post-Nagasaki world. Examining artistic works from different genres and different time periods, I show how Japanese artists have reflected on and responded to the nuclear age through cultural expression and what these representations can tell us about how they were attempting to work through nuclear issues and anxiety at various junctures in the postwar while also attempting to reconceptualize Japanese identity and the future of the nation after defeat in the Asia Pacific War. Central to many nuclear representations is the conceptual metaphor of destruction/rebirth. In each artist's conceptualization of the nuclear age, the idea of destruction/rebirth manifests as an integral component of Japan's postwar transformation. Utilizing the conceptual metaphor of destruction/rebirth, postwar artists provided cultural responses to defeat, restoration, and the anxieties of living in the nuclear age.
