| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
Western scholars and writers about Miller have extremely limited knowledge of the
extensive Japanese scholarship and non-journal texts concerning Henry Miller. The purpose of this project is to integrate Japanese scholarship on Miller alongside western materials by creating a bibliographic decade-by-decade narrative that will reveal the shifting opinions concerning Miller. Going beyond a focus on English only sources, this research will incorporate international scholarly and media articles on Miller published in the following languages: Japanese, French, German, and English.

| 研究実績の概要 |
Over the last year, I have been involved with several research projects that have directly and indirectly contributed to advancing this current research project on Henry Miller. Over the course of this last year, I have been focused on archive research and database mining to acquire hundreds of news articles evaluating the position of Miller’s literary work in the greater spectrum of modern American literature. These news articles will be organized and coded for specific themes using the data analysis software ATLAS.ti. This software program allows me to input the data and then, depending on the content of the material, code the content into a variety of fields. I gathered rare, printed materials from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of Minnesota, and the University of California, Los Angeles. The data analysis is centered on the decade of the 1950s, a significant period before Miller’s work, because globally recognized. While at UCLA, I was able to examine data from hundreds of French news pieces on Miller, some of which revealed how quickly Miller was being compared with the great 20th Century French authors. In an effort to more quickly demonstrate the shifts in public opinions and literary status of Miller, I have been focusing on gathering data from the 1950s and the 1960s, as these two decades--I will demonstrate--represent the greatest shifts in Miller’s public image, both in Japan and the United States, and to a lesser extent in Europe, where Miller was relatively established and respected at an earlier period.

理由
Due to deadlines for concurrent research projects, I have yet to progress as quickly as hoped. The goal is to compose research articles that reveal the examination results of a decade-by-decade overview of transitions in the public reception of Henry Miller’s literary works. Hundreds of articles are needed in numerous languages to conduct this global overview. I have not yet accumulated a sufficient data set to begin writing adequately. Therefore, additional data mining is necessary, requiring trips to the New York Public Library and libraries in Europe, all containing undigitized media sources containing reviews of Miller’s works.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
Upcoming plans include a research trip to New York City and Washington, D.C., to access additional materials. Furthermore, ATLAS.ti data analysis software will allow me to locate trends in public opinion concerning Miller, therefore aiding my research trajectory by allowing me to concentrate on more focused types of reviews and opinion pieces. By doing so, I am confident that a meaningful quantitative trajectory will be revealed.
