Abstract As one of contemporary Japan’s most famous authors, Murakami Haruki’s stories have inspired many producers of various media and genres. In this transmedial process where creative content is transposed between textual and other media forms, the content of a literary work inevitably has to change to suit the new aesthetic form due to the specific conventions of the target media and genre. This article uses Murakami’s works to address such concept of transmediality, which reflects our contemporary cultural and literary environment where boundaries between media types and genres have become more blurred. Specifically, we examine Murakami’s short stories, ‘Panya shūgeki’, ‘Panya saishūgeki’, and the movement of these stories from literary text to other mediums, in order to explore what sort of politics is involved in the transmediation. Focusing on three themes – ideology, race and gender – and their representations across different genres and media, we see transmediality as a process whereby a nexus of possible interpretations can be opened up through rearranging different elements of a story and negotiating with different aesthetic features of the new platforms.

村上春树面包店袭击故事中的跨媒体政治

摘要 作为当代日本最著名的作家之一，村上春树的故事启发了各种媒体和流派的许多制作人。在这个创意内容在文本和其他媒体形式之间转换的跨媒体过程中，由于目标媒体和体裁的特定约定，文学作品的内容不可避免地必须改变以适应新的审美形式。本文使用村上隆的作品来阐述这种跨媒体性的概念，这反映了我们当代文化和文学环境，其中媒体类型和流派之间的界限变得更加模糊。具体而言，我们考察了村上的短篇小说《番屋书剧》、《番屋彩绘》，以及这些故事从文学文本到其他媒介的运动，以探索在这种转化中涉及什么样的政治。
