Summer School "Reading Pre-Modern Japanese Texts"

Covering the medieval and early modern periods, this summer school is designed to help the participants cope with the challenges posed by pre-modern Japanese texts, in their different genres, stylistic and linguistic varieties, and material forms. The aim is to facilitate the work with primary sources in pre-modern registers (like kanbun or sōrōbun) at the level requisite for the independent work of a junior scholar.
It will be held from 11 to 19 September 2012 and is organised by Dr. Anna Andreeva and Dr. David Mervart.
