This roundtable includes several scholars who contributed to the forthcoming anthology of critical essays on literature in Heisei Japan, on the themes of "Language," "Spaces Seen and Unseen," and "Family, Identity, Gender, Body." We hope to stimulate discussions on aspects of literary development in the 30 years of Heisei Japan and trace the creative impulses in a diverse body of work.
This event is organized by Angela Yiu (Professor, FLA, Sophia University) who is also a lead investigator in the ICC Collaborative Research Unit "Multiple Voices in Heisei Literature."
