The figure of the translator during what I call ‘the moment of the translator’ from roughly the 1850s through the 1870s served a key purpose: he embodied a model of modern Japanese identity that could successfully move through international contexts, on Western terms, by means of his fluency in foreign languages. In chapter 1 I examine the multitude of historical figures who acted as translators in the late nineteenth century to argue that the cumulative force of their public stories created 'the moment of the translator.' In chapter 2 I consider one of the most popular fictional travel narratives to feature a translator figure: Kanagaki Robun's Seiyôdôchû hizakurige. Next, I consider the non-fictional travel writings and primers of Fukuzawa Yukichi to demonstrate how he implicitly models himself as a translator and successful participant in the international forum. I then turn to the travel writings of Nagai Kafû who wrote a generation later, and whose translator figure transforms into the figure of the wandering artist. Finally, I turn to the contemporary author Tawada Yôko to consider the subverted legacies of the translator figure, who comes into view again in Tawada's transnational, multilingual fiction. 1 To my mother, whose inspiring example and dauntless faith in my potential profoundly sustains my work i Table of Contents Chapter 1 Introduction: The Moment of the Translator……………………….…………….............1 Chapter 2 The Triumph of the Translator: Kanagaki Robun’s Model of Mastery………………….14 Chapter 3 The Translator as Expert: Fukuzawa Yukichi's travel narratives and translations……....33 Chapter 4 The Translator as Wandering Artist: Language and Movement in Nagai Kafû’s American Stories…………………….……..59 Coda Subverted Legacies: Tawada Yôko and the Return of the Translator………..…….........76 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………..83 ii Acknowledgements This dissertation is the product of effort, sacrifice and support from many wonderful people and institutions.

What kinds of fantasies does a nation imagine for itself in the face of epochal change? In the case of Japan in the mid- to late- nineteenth century, in which the source and impetus for the change was perceived to lie in “the West” and the foreign, I argue that the literary imagination in travel narratives fixated on figures of success and mastery in the international forum who could bridge linguistic differences with aplomb; in short: the translator. Once ‘the West’ became both the reason for the changes, and the guiding model of the transformations, the Japanese reading public became, for a short duration of time that I call ‘the moment of the translator,’ fixated on the figure of the translator in literature, especially in travel narratives and other literature concerning the world beyond Japan’s shores. The figure of the translator for this moment from roughly the 1850s through the 1870s served a key purpose: he (and it was always a ‘he’) embodied a model of modern Japanese identity that could successfully move through international contexts, on Western terms, by means of his fluency in foreign languages. But what details of representation allow this translator to become a model Japanese identity in the early Meiji literary imagination? As literary scholar Okitsu Kaname argues, the figure of the general expert on foreign subjects, represented in cultural production throughout the nineteenth century, crystalizes into an expert in foreign languages in the early Meiji period: The literary figure of the foreign expert, who looks at marvelous things of the new age while strolling about, is portrayed as a figure of unrestrained freedom against the background of Bunmei Kaika enlightenment mores. With this literary style a confidence can be felt that with just a fluency in foreign languages the contemporary moment and the future glow rose-colored.1 (emphasis added) Okitsu Kaname astutely observes that, among the constellation of attributes of this new literary

The influence of Japanese art is a phenomenon that is now called Japonisme , and it spread widely throughout Western art. It is quite hard to make a clear definition of Japonisme because of the breadth of the phenomenon, but it could be generally agreed that it is an attempt to understand and adapt the essential qualities of Japanese art. This thesis explores Japanese influences on British Art and will focus on four artists working in Britain: the American James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), the Australian Mortimer Menpes (1855-1938), and two artists from the group known as the Glasgow Boys, George Henry (1858-1934) and Edward Atkinson Hornel (1864-1933).

    Hoorn, J. F. (2018). Theory of robot communication: I. The medium is the communication partner. arXiv:cs, 2502565(v1), 1-21. 1 Theory of Robot Communication: I. The Medium is the Communication Partner Johan F. Hoorn1,2 1 Department of Computing and School of Design, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, 999077, Hong Kong. 2 Department of Communication Science, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, 1081 HV, The Netherlands. Correspondence should be addressed to Johan F. Hoorn; [email protected] Abstract When people use electronic media for their communication, Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) theories describe the social and communicative aspects of people’s interpersonal transactions. When people interact via a remote-controlled robot, many of the CMC theses hold. Yet, what if people communicate with a conversation robot that is (partly) autonomous? Do the same theories apply? This paper discusses CMC theories in confrontation with observations and research data gained from human-robot communication. As a result, I argue for an addition to CMC theorizing when the robot as a medium itself becomes the communication partner. In view of the rise of social robots in coming years, I define the theoretical precepts of a possible next step in CMC, which I elaborate in a second paper. Introduction Currently, the development and application of social robots in real-life settings rapidly increases. Whereas robots initially were the domain of science-fiction, today, social robots are tried out in service-oriented professions in healthcare, education, and commerce (Broadbent, 2017). Habitually, general-purpose robots are readied for a particular task in a particular environment such as guidance through an exhibition or reception in a hotel (Broadbent, 2017).

  • Social Decorating: Dutch Salons in Early Modern Japan
    SOCIAL DECORATING: DUTCH SALONS IN EARLY MODERN JAPAN TERRENCE JACKSON Adrian College Seated Intellect, Performative Intellect Cultural salons proliferated during the last half of the eighteenth century in Japan, accommodating a growing interest in the za arts and literature (za-bungei 座文芸). The literal meaning of za 座 was “seat,” and the za arts (visual and literary) were performed within groups, which were presumably “seated” together. Za culture first appeared as early as the thirteenth century when the Emperor Go-Toba 後鳥羽 held poetry gatherings in his salon (zashiki 座敷). In practice, za also referred to the physical space where these individuals gathered, and it is from that that the related term zashiki, or “sitting room” was derived.1 Zashiki served a function similar to the salons of Europe in the early modern period—as a semi-private space to entertain guests and enjoy cultural interaction. Za arts gatherings met within the homes of participants or patrons, but also in rented zashiki at temples and teahouses. During their meetings, professionals and amateurs interacted and cooperated to produce culture. The epitome of this was renga 連歌 poetry in which groups created linked-verses. However, other types of cultural groups met in salons to design such items as woodblock prints and playful calendars, to debate flower arranging, or to discuss the latest bestsellers. Within these spaces, the emphasis was on group production and on the rights of all attendees to participate, regardless of social background. The atmosphere of zashiki gatherings combined civility, curiosity, playfulness, and camaraderie. The distinction between artistic and intellectual pursuits had fuzzy boundaries during the Tokugawa period, and scholars largely operated within a social world similar to artists, poets, and fiction writers .

The book includes various reflections, poems and even sermons from famous and lesser-known writers, each sharing their thoughts on the spiritual terrain that this season offers. I was especially drawn to a sermon by Rev. William Cooper, a colonial-era preacher from Boston whose sermon on January 23rd, 1736 was aptly titled “A Winter Sermon.” From the wooden chancel of the Brattle Street Church in Cambridge, Rev. Cooper read from the King James Bible, Psalm 147 verses 15-18: God sendeth forth His commandment upon earth, His word runneth very swiftly. He giveth snow like wool, He scattereth the frost like ashes. He casteth forth ice like morsels. Who can stand before this cold? God sendeth out His word, and melteth them, He causeth the wind to blow, and the waters flow. And then, in beautiful 18th century discourse, Rev. Cooper argues that the cold is a very powerful means of spiritual practice and devotion. He also lifts up the need for greater service to one another, both neighbor and stranger, due to the many hardships of this season.
