授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか）Outline and objectives
This course examines the social, political, and cultural forces that shape the canon of Japanese literature available in English translation. In particular, we will focus on translations published in the United States in the postwar period. How did publishers determine which authors to introduce to an American audience, and how did those choices influence our image of Japanese literature in Japan, the US, and globally?
到達目標Goal
Students will think critically about the discourses of translation, publication, and world literature. Students will also develop critical reading and writing skills through class assignments.
