| 研究実績の概要 |
In 2023 a collection of a selection of the papers from the conference '(Im)Perfectionist Aesthetics' held at Kansai University in 2020, supplemented by newly commissioned papers on the same topic was published by Routledge with the title 'Imperfectionist Aesthetics in Art and Everyday Life' (ISBN 9781032170091), it was edited by Peter Cheyne. The book contains 27 contributions by different scholars. The book presents interdisciplinary research on the aesthetics of perfection and imperfection. Broadening this growing field, it connects the aesthetics of imperfection with issues in areas including philosophy, music, literature, urban environment, architecture, art theory, and cultural studies. It is intended to appeal to a broad range of scholars and advanced students working in philosophical aesthetics, literature, music, urban environment, architecture, art theory, and cultural studies. Since the publication of the book the team has been preparing a Japanese translation of the work to be published by the University of Tokyo Press.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
At present different translators have been commissioned to translate one or more papers each, in order to speed up the process of translation. Once these translations are complete and have been edited, there will then be the process of producing the book together with the University of Tokyo Press. When that is finished, the project will be complete.
