| Research Abstract |
In this research project we tried to investigate and definite the "region"-concept in the European literature, especially in the historical context of reorganizations of the countries in the 20th century. And then we reconsidered the region-based standards of literature. Finally we criticized the standards of literature which were formed parallel to the concepts of "modern nation-states" and "national literature".
The members of the projects selected separately their own subthemes as follows :
1) Irish and English literature observed from the nationalistic viewpoint (Otomo)
2) Literature of the Slavic minority in the former East Germany (Sugiura)
3) Regional literature of the former Habsburg-Austria after the World War I (Hatanaka)
4) Literature of the German minority in Rumania, especially that of the Transylvania-German (Suzuki)
5) The literature of Bukowina (Fujita)
6) The Russian literature written in Estonia (Tanaka)
