Summary
editDescriptionAmerican blue-eyed dolls LauraMargaret.JPG |
English: Blue-eyed doll, Laura Margaret. In 1927, children in the United States sent over 12,000 dolls to Japanese elementary school children as a gesture of friendship. This is one of the few which survived World War 2, named Laura Margaret. Other dolls were banished from schools during the war as "enemy dolls" and were destroyed, but this one was kept secretly in a storeroom during and after the war. The doll had once been displayed at school in a glass case with great care along with her passport, and recently was rediscovered in 1983 in a warehouse of the school at en:Hakusan, Ishikawa (near en:Shirayama Hime Shrine) during spring cleaning. She was displayed at Tsurugi Library, Hakusan city, Ishikawa prefecture, Japan, during the summer 2015.
日本語:昭和2年(1927)、日米友好の証として全国各地の幼稚園や小学校に青い目の人形が贈られ大歓迎されました。その後、戦争がはじまり、多くの人形が敵国のものとして処分されましたが、石川県では3体残っているのが確認されています。そのうちの1体が、朝日小学校で発見された「ローラー・マーガレット」です。この青い目の人形は、昭和58年(1983)に『白山市立(旧鶴来町立)朝日小学校:戦後の昭和41年(1966)に一ノ宮小学校と鶴来小学校とが統合され新校舎に引っ越した後』で校内大掃除が行われた際、物置に保存されていた状態で発見されました。パスポートやメッセージなどの所持品はありませんでしたが、人形が贈られた当時小学生だった方により、人形の名前が「ローラ・マーガレット」であることがわかりました。他にも当時を知る方々の証言から、戦前はガラスケースに入れられて大切に飾られていたことや、戦中・戦後は人目を忍ぶように物置でひっそりと保管されていたことなどがわかっています。
青い目の人形は、石川県には全部で205体が贈られましたが、現在は3体(白山市、輪島市、津幡町)現存しています。他の人形たちは戦時中に「敵性人形」とされて学校から追放され、運動場で焼却され、木刀で破壊され、ほとんどの人形が失われています。石川県内に現存する3体は優しい人々にまもられそのような過酷な時代の難を逃れた人形です。 |
