Eroticism, Grotesqueness and Non-Sense: Twenty-first Century Cultural Imagery of Japan in the Israeli Media and Popular CultureFootnote1
1. The title of this paper is a metaphoric reproduction of the slogan used by Japanese to describe the 1920s in Japan as the era of “eroticism, grotesqueness and nonsense” (ero, guro, nonsensu). In using this slogan as the title of this paper I do not mean to suggest that history repeats itself, but that cultural imageries can sometimes become marked features of a society and powerful symbols of an era.
