Symposium on writer Tsushima Yuko (Tokyo, Sunday Dec 11) Discussion published by Anne McKnight on Thursday, December 8, 2016 For those in the Tokyo area, or who may be coming this weekend--a great gathering of scholars based in Japan, Taiwan, and the US about writer Tsushima Yuko (1947-2016). The keynote speaker is novelist Kashimada Maki; fans of contemporary literature will recognize other names. Tsushima's many writings, in Japanese and in translation, stress the powers of narrative to connect intimate stories of personal/family life to spaces of memory and movement apart from these immediate intimacies. Tsushima also did numerous collaborations with younger writers with writing "caravans" in (among other places) Taiwan and India. This is a chance to hear from writers and scholars who were Tsushima's contemporaries, readers and collaborators. A selected edition of her works is in the works, which will bring many writings together and into readers' hands. Please join us~ even if you have a lingering conference fatigue from the Soseki gathering. The symposium is happening at Shirayuri University in Chofu (where Tsushima went to college), on Sunday December 11. Links are below, with transit directions. Registration is desired, but not required. (Talks will be in Japanese).
