講義概要/Course description
|
In this course, we will develop English skills useful for researching Japanese literature. In the first semester, we will read excerpts from several representative pre-modern works in translation and look at their commentaries. Short lectures will be conducted in English each week. Each student will present and lead discussion once per semester. Every week, each student will write a short response in Japanese about what s/he learned. Presentations and discussions will be primarily in Japanese. At the end of the first semester, students will submit a report on the same topic as their in-class presentation.
