Keith Adrian Hanley教授講演会のご案内

Keith Adrian Hanley先生（Lancaster 大学教授・学習院大学客員研究員）の講演会が以下の要領で行われます。
ウィリアム・エンプソンの滞日経験と批評の実践の関係に迫る最近のご研究をご紹介くださいます。
どうぞお誘い合わせの上、ご参加頂ければ幸いに存じます。

講演題目 “William Empson, Double Agent”
司会　Andrew Fitzsimons教授（学習院大学）
日時：2018 年 5 月 30 日（水）18:00-19:30
会場：学習院大学　北2号館10階　大会議室

講演内容：William Empson was the most influential English literary critic of the twentieth century and also an intriguingly experimental poet. From 1931 to 1934 he lectured at Tokyo University of Literature and Science and the Imperial University. This lecture places him as the most celebrated among a series of English writers who spent significant periods as academics in Japan during the first half of the last century and recovers some specific effects of his Japanese experiences as a privately confused young man observing the international conflicts that were leading to world war. It suggests how those histories continued to affect his critical practice and his critique of the turn to Theory. Finally, what has his version of cultural liberalism to say to us at a time of resurgent nationalisms?
From 1931 to 1934 William Empson lectured at Tokyo University of Literature and Science (Tôkyô bunrika daigaku) and the Imperial University at Tokyo, then after an interlude in Britain returned to East Asia in 1937.

予約不要、入場無料。
講演は英語で行われます。
講演後懇親会も行われる予定です。

Contemporary Reception of Malory’s Le Morte Darthur: At the Birth of the
Print Revolution
Chiharu HASEGAWA, Daito Bunka University

William Caxton oversaw the end of the era of the manuscript and ushered in
the era of the mass production of texts. Nine years after establishing
England’s first press in 1476 in Westminster, London, Caxton published Sir
Thomas Malory’s Le Morte Darthur. With mass printing came the power to make
editorial decisions which would significantly mould and influence the
reception of Malory’s, or anyone’s, work. We can learn a great deal
concerning Caxton’s contribution by examining differences between the
printed text and the Winchester Manuscript (c.1480-83), the only extant
manuscript, and by analyzing his Preface. We can infer much about Malory’s
readership. These issues will be discussed in this presentation.

14:15-15:45

Under-developed female characters in early Joyce, with particular reference
to Chamber Music and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man & Stephen Hero.
Martin CONNOLLY, Tsurumi University

The depiction of the female lover in Chamber Music is indistinct and
unsatisfying. This may be attributable to the airy style of the poetry, or
it may be a result of Joyce’s own way of depicting women in his early
years. She is very much the foil for the male lover, who enjoys the
spotlight. Her character is less distinct, and therefore, less important. If
Chamber Music is a book of love poetry it is a book of love poetry by a
person who lacked understanding of women. The lover at the end of Chamber
Music asking ‘My love, my love, my love, why have you left me alone?’ has
clear resonance with Stephen’s debacle with Emma Clery in Stephen Hero.
While many female characters in Dubliners are convincingly drawn, Joyce
sometimes, as in Chamber Music, fails to capture women’s individuality,
perhaps because his focus is elsewhere.

Keynote Lecture: “On Not Knowing: Lahiri, Tawada, Ishiguro”

Presenters
Rebecca Walkowitz is Director of Modernism and Globalization Research Group
at Rutgers University, Professor Rebecca Walkowitz is the author of Born
Translated: The Contemporary Novel in an Age of World Literature (2015) and
Cosmopolitan Style: Modernism Beyond the Nation (2006). In Born Translated,
she considers how the idea of world literature, as a network of multilingual
editions and audiences, has changed the aesthetic strategies and formal
properties of contemporary writing. She also co-edited A New Vocabulary for
Global Modernism (2016), which presents essays by leading scholars in the
fields of world literature and modernist studies.

Daiki Uchida is a doctoral student of Keio University. He majors in American
literature, currently researching the mutual relations between some English
novels of Vladimir Nabokov and those of his contemporary writers in terms of
the Cold War. His M.A. thesis focuses on how Nabokov describes American
consumer culture in Lolita. He has also written an article on mesmerism in
Nabokovs Pale Fire and Edgar Allan Poe’s “A Tale of the Ragged
Mountains.”

Doug Battersby has recently completed a PhD in English Literature at the
University of York, writing his dissertation on the relationships between
knowing and feeling in late modernist fiction. He has written articles on
Vladimir Nabokov, Samuel Beckett, Joseph Conrad, and other modern and
contemporary writers for Textual Practice, English, Modernism/modernity, and
New Literary History. Doug is currently a JSPS Postdoctoral Fellow at the
University of Tokyo, where he is working on the fiction of Kazuo Ishiguro
under the guidance of Yoshiki Tajiri.

Toru Oda is currently a part-time lecturer at the University of Shizuoka. He
earned his Ph.D in Comparative Literature from University of California,
Irvine. His dissertation titled Anarchistic Hermeneutics of Utopian Desires
in the Nineteenth Century explores various disciplinary and historical
discourses on anarchism from classical anarchists to contemporary
postanarchists, while revisiting naturalist and utopian fiction from
anarchist perspectives. Recently his essay on Zola and anarchism appeared in
EXCAVATIO, an international Zola journal.

Mitsuhiro Yoshimoto is Professor of Media, Film, and Visual Culture at
Waseda University. Before joining Waseda, Yoshimoto was Associate Professor
of East Asian Studies at New York University, and Associate Professor of
Cinema and Comparative Literature/Asian Languages and Literatures at the
University of Iowa. His books in English include Kurosawa: Film Studies and
Japanese Cinema (Duke University Press, 2000), Television, Japan, and
Globalization (Center for Japanese Studies, University of Michigan, 2010),
and most recently, Planetary Atmospheres and Urban Society after Fukushima
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2017), which he co-edited with Christophe Thouny.
