What is "Modern "Japanese" "Literature": Exploring Japan's modernity through literary discourse[授業の概要・目的]
This course will explore developments and trends in modern Japanese literature, society, and culture. We will
read and analyse literary (and non-literary) discourse dealing with the encounters between Japan and theworld from the beginning of the Meiji period to the present, as well as works illustrating the way
modernization redefined human relations (family, friendship, love, etc) during the same period of time.
[到達目標]At the end of this course, students will have sufficient information about the historical, social, and cultural
background of the literary works read in class, and will be able to put them into perspective, questioning thedichotomies Japan-West and modern-traditional , while looking at literature as their locus ofdialogue. They will have also learned about various literary theories and analytical methodologies, which willallow them to engage with the texts in a critical way, in order to produce meaningful discussions,presentations, and essays.
Study Focus: Knowledge, Belief and Religion; Visual, Media and Material Culture.
Modules: Mobility& Research 1; Mobility&Research 2; Research 3.

The course will start with an introduction to the concept and language of literature and the changes they
underwent throughout history, in the world but especially in modern Japan; it will also touch upon the main

include, without being limited to, the following works: Mori Ogai: The Dancing Girl ; Higuchi Ichiyo:Growing Up ; Nagai Kafu: American Stories; Akutagawa Ryunosuke: The Ball ; Tanizaki Jun ichiro:
Naomi; Kawabata Yasunari: The Old Capital; Kyoko Yoshida: Kyoto Panorama Project ; David Zopetti:
Ichigensan, the Newcomer, etc.
Classes will ideally be interactive, with student discussions and presentations taking up 1/4 to 1/3 of the time,
but a more detailed plan for each class will be determined based on the number of, and the feedback from theparticipants.
