 | | It is often stated that the works of well-known authors in early modern Japan (writers such as Futabatei Shimei, Natsume Soseki, and Mori Ogai) have little in common. |
 | | Our study of modern Japanese literature, however, will examine how many of these authors (and numerous postwar writers as well) share a common goal of psychological realism, the representation of characters' thoughts, motives, and feelings without idealization. |
 | | Course requirements include: approximately 100 pages of reading a week, 7 short (1-2 page) papers, occasional homework assignments to be submitted by email, a midterm, and a final. |
