《阅读日本书系：日本电影与战后的神话》收录的文章的核心，是围绕着1945年日本战败后的社会重建而出现的神话形象的评论性研究。其中主要围绕下面两种电影展开了分析和叙述：一种是将这些形象作为同时代的神话而加以彰显的电影；另一种是在隔了一段时间之后，再次（怀旧地或是评论性地）提起上述神话的电影。说得更具体一点的话，首先我会论及在日本电影中，1945年8月15臼的天皇玉音广播是如何通过电影被描写成神话的；其次我会参照玉音广播在亚洲电影中的使用，籍此寻找出使其背离神圣化的对照物。就在日本电影长期将天皇的表象当作默认的禁忌的时候，饿罗斯的索科洛夫（Aleksandr Sokurov）打破了该禁忌，拍摄了以昭和天皇为主人公的作品，《阅读日本书系：日本电影与战后的神话》中将会讨论这件事的意义。

One of the most prolific and respected directors of the Japanese cinema, Naruse Mikio (1905-69) made eighty-nine films between 1930 and 1967. Yet little has been written about Naruse in English; nor has much of the writing about him in Japanese been translated into English. With "The Cinema of Naruse Mikio", Catherine Russell brings deserved critical attention to this under-appreciated director. Besides illuminating Naruse's contributions to Japanese and world cinema, Russell's in-depth study of the director sheds new light on the Japanese film industry between the 1930s and the 1960s. Naruse was a studio-based director, a company man renowned for bringing films in on budget and on time. During his long career, he directed movies in different styles of melodrama while displaying a remarkable continuity of tone. His films were based on a variety of Japanese literary sources and original scripts; almost all of them were set in contemporary Japan. Many were 'women's films.' They had female protagonists, and they depicted women's passions, disappointments, routines, and living conditions. While neither Naruse nor his audiences identified themselves as 'feminist,' his films repeatedly foreground, if not challenge, the rigid gender norms of Japanese society. Given the complex historical and critical issues surrounding Naruse's cinema, a comprehensive study of the director demands an innovative and interdisciplinary critical approach. Russell draws on the critical reception of Naruse in Japan, in addition to the cultural theory of H. D. Harootunian, Miriam Hansen, and Walter Benjamin. She shows that Naruse's movies were key texts of Japanese modernity, both in the ways that they portrayed the changing roles of Japanese women in the public sphere and in their depiction of an urban, industrialized, mass-media-saturated society.
