| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
From Captain Cook’s voyage in 1768 to the beginning of the First World War in 1914, the Pacific became the increasing focus of Anglophone literary imaginations. This project will investigate the important questions these paratexts raise about the distinction between factual and fiction representations and the relationship between British and American accounts of the region. It will also explore the parallels between the intellectual traffic traversing the margins of these texts and the movements of goods and commodities being transported across the Pacific.

| 研究実績の概要 |
I completed first drafts of chapters on Byron and Mitford, Stevenson and Coleridge for a monograph entitled "Pacific Marginality" and an essay on Stevenson for the collection entitled Pacific Gateways (Laurence Williams ed. Palgrave). I gave papers at conferences in Australia, Japan and the UK.
I published (with Dr Laurence Williams, Sophia University) a volume of essays titled "British Romanticism in Asia". I submitted an article on Kurosawa and Shakespeare to the journal Critical Survey. I published reviews of books by Timothy Michaels, Judith Pascoe and Yu Miri in The Byron Journal and Kyoto Journal. I also acted as a reviewer for European Romantic Review and series editor for Palgrave "Asia-Pacific and Literature in English".

2: おおむね順調に進展している
理由
My personal research is proceeding largely as planned. However I had planned to hold an international conference related to this project entitled Pacific Paratexts in November 2020. I had secured Professor Rod Edmond and Ann Johnston as plenaries, sent out an international call for papers and made a conference website. However, due to the coronoa virus situation I have decided to delay the conference to November 2021. This may mean I need to reserve funds originally allocated for this year to next year.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Due to the corona virus situation, my main focus will be on the monograpy Pacific Marginality. Kakenhi will be used for 1) the purchase of books and office supplies 2) planning for the conference next year.
I plan to give an invited talk (via zoom) on Mary Russell Mitford and Lord Byron at Eberhard Karls University of Tubingen (April 2020). I am also scheduled to give a paper (again via zoom) on Georg Forster’s notes for A Voyage Round the World (1775) at “The Intermedial Eighteenth Century: Textual and Visual Arts, 1660-1832” at the Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle-upon-Tyne in September 2020. I will publish a book chapter on Roland Barthes for Fabien Arribert-Narce and Kamilla Pawlikowska’s collection Essays on ‘The Pleasure of the Text’.
