翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Bamboo torture ： ウィキペディア英語版 Bamboo torture Bamboo torture is a form of torture where a bamboo shoot is grown through the body of a victim, reportedly used in East and South Asia. ==Recorded usage== After World War II, stories circulated of Japanese soldiers inflicting "bamboo torture" upon U.S. and Allied prisoners of war, where the victim was tied securely in place above a young bamboo shoot.〔(''The Other Empire: Literary Views of Japan from the Philippines, Singapore, and Malaysia'', UP Press, 2008 )〕 Over several days, the sharp, fast growing shoot would first puncture, then completely penetrate the victim's body, eventually emerging through the other side.〔As an example of popular promotion of this horror story, see for example:''WW2 People's War''(Japanese Torture Techniques )〕 The cast of the TV program ''MythBusters'' investigated bamboo torture in a 2008 episode and found that a bamboo shoot can penetrate through several inches of ballistic gelatin in three days. For research purposes, ballistic gelatin is considered comparable to human flesh, and the experiment thus supported the ''viability'' of this form of torture, not its ''historicity''. In her memoir "Hakka Soul", the Chinese poet and author Woon-Ping Chin〔(Woon-Ping Chin )〕 mentions the "bamboo torture" as one of those tortures the locals believed the Japanese performed on prisoners.〔, (p.23 )〕 This tale of using live trees impaling persons as they grow is, however, not confined to the context of WWII and the Japanese as torturers, but was recorded in the 19th century, when Malays alleged the Siamese used (among other punishments) the sprout of the nipah palm in the manner of bamboo torture during the 1821 Siamese invasion of Kedah.〔,(p. 190–94 )〕〔(''The Japan Science Review: Humanistic studies'', Volumes 6-10, 1955 - Dissertations, Academic )〕〔(''Sejarah Pahang'', Buyong bin Adil (Haji.), Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka, Kementerian Pelajaran, Malaysia, 1984 - Pahang - 461 pages )〕 A "Madras civilian", in his travel description from 1820s India, said this use of bamboo was a well known punishment in Ceylon.〔, (p.296 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bamboo torture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
