Abstract

The tradition of the literary retelling is not anew: classical authors like Omero have been quoted and revisited a number of times. Japanese literary responses to 11th March catastrophe seem to follow a similar trend. This brief research aims to investigate Nakamori Akio and Kawakami Hiromi 2011 novels as examples of literary remakes in a new “catastrophic” perspective: the attempt is to demonstrate how catastrophe influences the communication of trauma in literature. The research underlines analogies and differences between the original versions and the remaking under the 3/11 keyword, suggesting the need to communicate trauma as the main reason for the rewriting.
