Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine the role played by fictional narrative works in the inheritance of war experience, based on a play in which the model of the main character is an actual air raids survivors. As a result, the following facts were clarified. First, through the “margins” of interpretation set in the work, fictional stories have the function of reconsidering the framework for understanding historical events and personal experiences that the audience has on a daily basis, and encouraging its reconstruction. Second, by re-questioning the framework of understanding experiences in this way, and supplementing it with appropriate historical materials, we can enrich the context of understanding actual experiences and have the potential to revitalized interest in narratives in preceding generations.
