| Research Abstract |
On the grant, we held two international conferences on the literatures in East Asia. First of all, on November 11, 2000, an international symposium entitled "The Tradition on Literary Essays in East Asia―What Kim So-Un inherited" was organized. Secondly, on July 14, 2001, a joint conference with Korea University of Foreign Languages entitled "Japanese Culture and Korean Culture in the Eyes of Women―Language and Literature" was hosted on Komaba campus. Besides, our investigators participated in several international conferences sponsored by International Comparative Literature Association (ICLA), Chinese Comparative Literature Association (CCLA), and Korean Comparative Literature Association (KCLA) and contributed research papers on East Asian Literature on the comparative perspectives.
Based on the discussions in the above mentioned conferences, our investigators published papers in the proceedings and magazines, especially in Studies of Comparative Literature (Hikaku Bungaku Kenkyu). The Project of The Comparative History of East Asian Literature in three volumes was inaugurated, with the detailed descriptions of content and contributors, on the consensus of scholars from China, Korea, and Japan. Nagoya University Press has kindly proposed to publish the series.
In the course of our research, the importance to broaden our perspectives and include the Western impacts and infuence on literatures of East Asia was recognized.
