Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
During the FY2015, I took part to 2 symposiums closely related to my research project, held in Paris in May and June 2015. The transactions of both symposiums are about to be released in a book, and in an electronic edition. The papers I wrote for the circumstance are likely to provide 2 chapters of the book I am planning to achieve during the current FY, and to submit for a defence as a "HDR" thesis (entitlement to advise research) by next Spring (2017). I also wrote one more paper to be developped in the book. I also set up my further participation to other symposiums to come this year : I will give a special lecture in a research seminar in Paris-Sorbonne University in June, and take part to a symposium in the University of Rouen the next week. Both symposiums are also closely related to my project, and I started to proceed with the preparatory research. Last year, I also organized a Workshop during the Gakkai of the Japanese Society of French Language and Literature Studies (SJLLF), held at Kyoto University in November 2015: the topic of this workshop was also related to the project, and it gave me the oportunity to cooperate with Japanese colleagues involved in the same field of research.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
1: Research has progressed more than it was originally planned.
Reason
During the FY2015, I had to move from my previous position as an Assistant Professor of Kyoto University, and to get ready to take a new position as an Assistant Professor of Osaka University. I left the former one on September 30, 2015, and I took the new one this April, 1. Meanwhile, during 6 months, I had to teach in various places as a Hijoukin, which situation was not very practical to make critical steps in my research, eventhough I kept writing and searching on the topic. But the main difficulty was that I had to postpone the Winter trip I usually make to Paris: such trips are usually very usefull.

Strategy for Future Research Activity |
During the FY2016, I will have to finish my research project, and to finish writing the dissertation which I am planning to submit by nect Spring, 2017. I will therefore have a lot of activities: 3 trips to France. In June, I am invited to deliver a special lecture in a research seminar in Paris-Sorbonne University (June 2), and to take part to a symposium in the University of Rouen (June 7-9). In August, I am planning to spend 3 weeks in France in order to advance my research at the Bibliotheque Nationale (BNF-French National Library). In February and March 2017, I have to make a final trip to Paris, for final sessions at the BNF, and important meetings with my advisor, will be necessary. I am planning to spend more than 3 weeks, possibly an entire month. 2 trips to Tokyo: the Gakkai of the SJLLF, in May, during which I will meet my Japanese colleagues involved in the field, and discuss with the; the prospects of future cooperations, and a symposium at Tokyo University, in November.
