自己の投影と創造:現代における中東と日本の文化還流を読み解く 2023

2023.05.25

This project examines the circulation of culture between the Middle East and Japan in the 20th century through the lens of literature and the arts in a broad sense that transcends genres. Particular attention will be paid to aspects of “projecting the self” and “creating the self,” highlighting the ways in which peoples of the Middle East and Japan have viewed each other. Ultimately, we would like to link our discoveries to the goal of “Global Area Studies,” which is to clarify the mechanisms of the construction and transformation of the contemporary global order.
