dc.description.abstract	In the past decade there has been a growing interest in representations of shachūhaku, or car camping, in Japanese media. In this thesis, I examine three different kinds of media representations of shachūhaku to understand how these narratives provide the distance from the rhythms of everyday life necessary to renegotiate one’s place within the hegemonies that structure them. Each kind of media that I examine has its own formal considerations, and each one utilizes both the spatial configurations of the vehicle and the narrative arc of shachūhaku to bring different aspects of the quotidian under scrutiny, but they all ultimately engage in this renegotiation, whether it be with the concept of death, gender, labor, or home.	en_US
