| JPNS 2015 - Tokyo in Literature and Film |
|
Like all great cities, Tokyo simultaneously fascinates and frightens us. The course explores this fascination and fear through the work of leading writers and directors who have responded to and shaped the city in their work. Readings will include essays, short stories, and novels by authors such as Yasunari Kawabata, Fumiko Hayashi, Banana Yoshimoto, and Haruki Murakami. Films by directors such as Yasujiro Ozu, Satoshi Kon, and Shosuke Murakami will be reviewed and discussed. Note: This course is cross-listed with Asian Studies 2015. Students may only receive credit for one of these courses: ASST 2015 or JPNS 2015. Credit Hours: 3.000 Levels: Graduate, NonDegree Continuing Undergrad, Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture and Recitation Division: Undergraduate Department: CLA:Asian & Mideast Langs/St |
