Research Abstract

Our project encompassed research in, as well as the promotion of, scholarship on contemporary Irish theatre. Our research investigated the plays of Samuel Beckett, Frank McGuinness, and others from the viewpoints of soundscape, modernism, occultism, audio-visual technology, and Irish history, yielding studies included in varied international publications. We furthermore established, as activities of the International Research Centre on Irish Theatre, the Research Circle of Irish Theatre and the Beckett Seminar, which facilitate Irish theatre scholarship in Japan and promote academic exchange through journals and international conferences between Japanese scholars and their counterparts abroad.
