Unit 4
A View of Mountains
Jonathan Schell
1.
On
August
9, 1945, the day the
atomic
bomb was dropped
on Nagasaki,
Yosuke
Yamahata, a photographer serving in the Japanese army, was dispatched to the
destroyed city. The hundred or so pictures he took the next day constitute
the fullest
photographic
record
of nuclear
destruction
in
existence.
Hiroshima,
destroyed three days earlier, had largely escaped the camera
’s lens in the
first day after the bombing. It was therefore left to Yamahata to record,
methodically
- and, as it happens, with a great and simple artistry
– the
effects
on a human population of a nuclear
weapon only
hours after
it
had been
used. Some of Yamahata ’s pictures show corpses charred in the peculiar way
in which a nuclear fireball chars its victims. They have been burned by
light
– technically speaking, by the
“thermal pulse ” -
and their bodies are
often branded with the patterns of their clothes, whose colors absorb light
in different degrees. One photograph shows a horse twisted under the cart it
had been pulling.
Another
shows a heap of
something
that
once had been a human
being hanging over a ledge into a ditch. A third shows a girl who has somehow
survived unwounded standing in the open mouth of a bomb shelter and smiling
an unearthly
smile,
shocking
us
with
the
sight
of
ordinary
life,
which
otherwise
seems
to
have been
left
behind
for good
in
the scenes
we are
witnessing. Stretching into the distance on all sides are fields of rubble
dotted with fires, and, in the background, a view of mountains. We can see
the mountains
because the
city
is gone. That absence,
even more than wreckage,
contains the heart of the matter. The true measure of the event lies not in what remains but in all that has disappeared.
It took a few seconds for the United States to destroy Nagasaki with the
world ’s second
atomic
bomb, bu
