This research has demonstrated the impact of Japanese and East Asian folktales on the imaginary of American and Asian American writers from the beginning of the 20th century to contemporary times. By focusing on the figure of the shape-shifting fox trickster, I have investigated its function both in Japanese literary texts and in American literary and filmic adaptations. In doing so, I was able to clarify the changing role of Japanese folktales in relation to the cultural and literary backgrounds against which they have been produced and then adapted over time. In particular, I have investigated their relationship with issues of gender, ethnic identity, and race in the works of John Luther Long, Winnifred Eaton, Kij Johnson, Hiromi Goto, Larissa Lai, and other writers. By examining the role of Japanese and East-Asian folktales in a cross-cultural context, my study has contributed to filling a research gap in the fields of comparative literature and fairy-tale studies.
