    2018 年6 月の大阪府北部を震源地とする地震は,国立民族学博物館(以下, 民博)の建物,収蔵什器,資料に数々の被害を与えた。地震当日,収蔵庫にお いて最も緊急を要したのは,2 階展示場のスプリンクラーヘッドの一つが外れ 散水したために生じた,第3 収蔵庫の水漏れとそれに伴う冠水資料への対応で あった。翌日以降は,冠水資料の乾燥,冠水棚周辺の資料の再点検,少数では あるがカビが発生した資料への対応が中心となった。全収蔵庫を対象とした被 害状況調査は,点検者,撮影者,記録者の三人一組で実施し,資料については 水濡れ,破損,落下,転倒,ズレ,固定ひものゆるみ,その他を確認し,収蔵 什器では棚の移動・ズレ,ひきだしの飛び出しを中心に調査した。上層階の収 蔵庫に被害が多い傾向がみられるとはいえ,収蔵庫の位置および棚の並び方向 と,被害の大小には明らかな関連はみいだせなかった。一方,棚の縁の立ち上 がりや落下防止バーは資料の落下防止に,紙製の箱は水分を吸収することで冠 水資料の被害の軽減に効果がみとめられた。民博では2004 年度より,資料の収 納・保管方法の改善および効率的な再配架を目的に収蔵庫再編成を進めてきた。 収蔵庫再編成を実施した収蔵庫において破損資料が少なかったことは,その有 効性が実証されたと考える。今回の地震での経験と教訓をもとに,民博では, より一層安全な収蔵庫および収蔵環境の構築を目指す。An earthquake that struck the northern part of Osaka Prefecture in June 2018 caused damage to buildings, furniture, and artifacts of the National Museum of Ethnology, Osaka. On the day of the earthquake, the most urgent task in the storage zone was response to water leakage at general storage No.3, which was caused by a sprinkler head being discharged on the exhibition floor above. From the next day onward, drying of water damaged artifacts, re-examination of artifacts around flooded storage racks, and treatment of a small number of artifacts with mold were the main emphasis. A damage survey of all storage rooms was conducted by a group of three: a person in charge of inspection, a person taking photographs, and a third taking notes. The survey includes water-damaged, broken, fallen, toppled over, or moved artifacts as well as a loosening of fixing cords. In the case of furniture, the survey emphasized the shifting of storage racks and opening of the drawers. Although a tendency was clear by which storage in upper areas tended to be damaged to a great degree, the position of the storage and the arrangement orientation of storage racks were not clearly related to the damage magnitude. However, raised edges and fall prevention bars of storage shelves were effective at preventing artifacts from falling. Paper boxes were effective in reducing damage to flooded artifacts by absorbing the water. The museum has been conducting storage reorganization since 2004 for improving methods of storing artifacts and for efficient relocation. The effectiveness was proved by the fact that artifacts were less likely to be damaged in the storage areas where storage reorganization had been conducted. Based on experiences and lessons from this earthquake, we aim to make a safer storage environment.departmental bulletin pape

    Introduction : A Nationalism of Absence<Special Theme : Nationalism in Timor-Leste>

    Get PDF
    In this issue, our theme is nationalism in Timor-Leste (East Timor) from an anthropological perspective. Timor-Leste is a nascent micronation that is composed of many ethnic groups and has a complex history. In the sixteen years since its independence, the nation as well as its nationalism has been rapidly changing. Each chapter analyses this changing nationalism from a different viewpoint. This chapter serves as an introduction and provides a general summary of the distinctive features of nationalism in Timor-Leste. Casting Timor-Leste against the background of Indonesia provides two perspectives of nationalism in Timor-Leste. The first examines how Timor- Leste has been affected causally by Indonesia. In this vein, I build upon the work of B. Anderson to show the parallel between the Netherlands and Indonesia on the one hand and Indonesia and Timor-Leste on the other. Second, I ignore the time lag and compare the two pairs, examining Timor- Leste against Indonesia as a mirror image of Indonesia against the Netherlands. From this perspective, distinctive features are clarified: in Timor-Leste, nationalism discourse has no ‘past glory’ (like Majapahit in Indonesian nationalism discourse), nor does Timor-Leste have enemies against whom it must struggle to regain its ‘past glory’. As a result, nationalism in Timor-Leste can be called a ‘nationalism of absence’.この特集の目的は東ティモールのナショナリズムを人類学的に考察すること にある。東ティモール共和国は独立後16 年を経て,大きく変化している。こ の序論では読者に東ティモールのナショナリズムの全体のイメージを掴んでも らうために,民族誌的な視点からではなく,より鳥瞰的な視点からの分析を試 みた。  わたしが採用した戦略は東ティモールをインドネシアという背景に置くこと から始まる。そのように配置した東ティモールを見る視点を二つ用意した。ひ とつはインドネシアとの関係という歴史的な視点である。結論は,(アンダー ソンによるのだが)東ティモールとインドネシアの関係は,そのままインドネ シアとオランダとの関係にそのまま重ね合わせることができる,というものだ。 つづいてこの二つのペア(すなわちインドネシアに抗する東ティモール,そし てオランダに抗するインドネシア)とを,ナショナリズムの文脈で比較した。 これが第二の視点である。その比較の中に現れる東ティモールのナショナリズ ムは「欠如のナショナリズム」と名付けうる特異なナショナリズムであった。departmental bulletin pape

    Preference of Sweetness and Food Culture in Taiwan Society : Historical Ecology of Production and Consumption of Sugar

    Get PDF
    本稿の目的は,台湾において甘味を嗜好する食文化が形成された過程をその 基盤をになった砂糖の歴史生態を視点に組み込みながら明らかにすることであ る。台湾社会における甘味をもった飲食物の定着,経済構造の変化や健康意識 の変化の過程を,主として歴史文献や民族誌的記述,砂糖生産に関する諸資料 をもとに推論してみたい。特に,植民地統治期(1895 ~ 1945 年)における甘 味をもった食文化の定着とそれを支えた砂糖生産の確立する過程を示す。現 在,台湾における糖質の過剰摂取の一つの要因とされている泡沫紅茶や加糖果 汁に台湾の人たちが親しんでいったのは,種類は違えど,砂糖を用いた甘味飲 食物が台湾社会全体に定着していく歴史生態学的な背景があったことが理解で きる。This paper presents a description of how Taiwanese people have come to prefer sweet foods and beverages from the perspective of historical ecology of sugar, which has an important role in preference. The process of consolidating sweet foods and beverages in Taiwan society and the changes of economic structure and health consciousness are discussed using historical sugar production records and ethnographic descriptions of foods recorded during Japanese colonial periods (1895–1945). Taiwan has a historical ecology by which people tasted sweet foods and beverages, producing the background of the present day: Taiwanese people continue to prefer sweet drinks such as bubble tea.departmental bulletin pape
