摘要：The aim of this article is to demonstrate the close correlation between Ōoka Shohei’s A Wife in Musashino, published in 1950 and its adaptations. This correlation between A Wife in Musashino and its adaptations allows us to find that the original text does not merely influence its adaptations, but also that their relations have interacting factors. This paper addresses Fukuda Tsuneari’s drama adaptation, staged in 1951 and Mizoguchi Kenji’s film adaptation, released in 1951. In an attempt to examine the correlation, this paper compares the original novel with its adaptations. The comparative analysis discusses the following points. First, I examine the commonalities and differences of the ending between Fukuda’s drama, Mizoguchi’s film, and Ōoka’s novel by examining how the ending of Ōoka’s novel is transformed by Fukuda and Mizoguchi. Second, I examine the commonalities and differences of Michiko’s suicide by focusing on the ‘accidental’ factors. Ōoka and Fukuda commented on the accidental factors in their novel and drama respectively. By looking at these comments more closely, I analyze the intertextuality between Ōoka and Fukuda. This paper shows that the correlation between A Wife in Musashino and its adaptations provides us with diverse ways to interpret and create.
