講義概要/Course description
In this class, we will read Keaveney's Beyond Brushtalk to explore interactions between Japanese and Chinese writers from 1919 to 1937. This inter-war period is known as the golden age of such exchange. During this period, travel between Japan and China became easier, which encouraged more Chinese writers to study in Japan. Meanwhile, a variety of Japanese writers traveled to China and interacted with the Chinese intellectuals. Major writers such as Lu Xun, Zhou Zuoren, Tanizaki Jun’ichiro and Hayashi Fumiko are among the topics. This class aims to draw interest of those who are interested in literary exchange in general.

Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the college has decided to continue the instructions and class meetings via internet for Fall semester of 2020 academic year. Given the challenging situation, this class will be carried on with on-demand videos and homework submissions via Aogaku’s “Course Power” system. Details are as followed:

1. PLEASE FINISH YOUR READING ASSIGNMENT based on the syllabus before every class meeting. Due to the copy right issues, unfortunately I am not allowed to upload the PDF files of the textbooks. Please purchase the assigned textbook either in paperback or in electronic version.

2. WATCH ON-DEMAND VIDEOS: I will upload videos before every scheduled class instruction. Since it is not a real-time online meeting, you will have an entire week to watch the videos, anytime at your best convivence. In these videos, I will introduce the context behind the readings and answer the questions you asked in your essays when time is allowed.

3. SUBMIT A SHORT ESSAY: After the class, please submit a short passage no longer than a double-spaced one page (200 words approximately) on any issue that you care from the reading assignment or the contents of the class. I will not give you a “prompt” on what to write. It can be a question, an opinion or a comment on the readings. Please post it directly on the coursework website or upload an attached file as you wish. It will be considered as part of your grade on participation and attendance.

4. FINAL PAPER: Please write a 10-15 double-spaced pages (approximately 2000-3000 words in English) of final paper for this class. We will talk about how to do this in the final week of the instruction. 

If you wish to talk to me in person or you have a question, please join my office hour on the Cisco Webex on-line meeting system. 
Time: Thursday, 15:30-17:00 Location: aoyamagakuin.webex.com (t25244’s personal meeting room) Webex meeting number: 576 599 349 Password is not required.
Take care and stay safe! Hopefully I will be able to meet you in person very soon on campus.
