On se souvient des rapprochements entre les images du 11 septembre et celles des films à grand spectacle qui semblaient en fournir la préfiguration. Quelques jours à peine après le séisme qui a frappé l’archipel nippon, on peut lire des évocations de l’imagerie populaire japonaise soulignant la troublante prescience de l’imaginaire. “ Les mangas ont déjà dessiné le séisme “, écrit ainsi Laureline Karaboudjan sur son blog Des Bulles carrées. Comme toujours dans la vérification a posteriori de prévisions ou de présages, la pertinence du diagnostic tient à la sélection des bons éléments. Une lecture plus ouverte des sources populaires suggère pourtant que la fiction, dans sa généreuse curiosité, a exploré un nombre si grand de pistes, y compris les plus improbables, qu’il est difficile de ne pas y trouver ce qu’on cherche, à condition de ne pas y regarder de trop près. Rien ne ressemble plus à un immeuble qui s’effondre qu’un autre immeuble qui s’effondre.

Japan - Vast Devastation
The vast devastation wrought by the earthquake and resulting tsunami that hit Japan on March 11, 2011, may only be matched by the destroyed lives left in their wake. Few survivors have been found, but families continue to search for their sons, daughters, wives, husbands and friends. Threats of a nuclear reactor meltdown and resulting disaster loom. -- Paula Nelson ( 51 photos total ) The rubble caused by an earthquake and tsunami fill the landscape in Yamada, Iwate Prefecture, Japan, Monday, March 14, 2011, three days after northeastern coastal towns were devastated by an earthquake and tsunami.Satellite Photos - Japan Before and After Tsunami - Interactive Feature
