Methodologically, I investigate various conceptualizations of racial, ethnic, and national identity by examining the Japanese American Citizens League's assimilationist culture of performing Americanism during the 1930s, the liberalism of S.

The focus is on the meanings generated by the interactions of different genres and sub-genres rather than the nature or structure of genre. This dissertation, then, studies the reconciliation of conflicting genres into a single work, an investigation which reveals the ways in which ideology reforms and reshapes itself in order to accommodate and integrate oppositional structures.
