During the term of the project the following researches were done to elucidate the developing process of Russian prose fiction and cultural circumstances of the eighteenth century Russia.

2.M. Kanazawa translated sentimental novels written in the end of 18th century into Japanese and wrote monographs on Russian sentimentalism and its cultural background.

4.T. Shiokawa published two works on Pascal's Pansee and 17-18^<th> century French thought. These books are very significant not only for the study on French culture but also for the study on Russian 18^<th> century.
5.At study meetings, which were held periodically at Slavic Department, the Univ of Tokyo, the topics on the 18th century Russian culture and literature were reported and discussed.
