The Moral Narratives of Hayao Miyazaki
Description
Widely regarded as Japan’s greatest animated director, Hayao Miyazaki creates
films lauded for vibrant characters and meaningful narrative themes. Examining
the messages of his 10 full-length films–from Nausicaa (1984) to The Wind
Rises (2013)–this study analyzes each for its religious, philosophical and
ethical implications. Miyazaki’s work addresses a coherent set of human
concerns, including adolescence, good and evil, our relationship to the past,
our place in the natural order, and the problems of living in a complex and
ambiguous world. Exhibiting religious influences without religious
endorsement, his films urge nonjudgment and perseverance in everyday life.
