项目摘要

In 2022, I focused my research on the case of Otsuka Kusuoko (1875-1910). While she has been canonized mostly as a poet, and her fictional works have been criticized as derivative (often compared unfavorably to those of her friend Natsume Soseki), I value her prose as an ironic take on the mainstream ideological and aesthetic debates of her time. Otsuka's mordant takes on moral issues around art earned her the censure of her contemporary male critics, because her works did not conform to their expectations of the public decorum befitting an upper-middle-class woman in Meiji. Ultimately, both the issues of Otsuka's public persona and her subsequent marginalization in the canon of modern Japanese literature tell us a significant amount about the policing and enforcing of the identity between person and author in moral terms that was expected of female writers in her era, in contrast with the artistic value afforded to the "abnormal genius" persona that her contemporary male writers (like Soseki) could deploy.This year I have also started collaborating closely with the ERC project "Modernizing Empires: Enlightenment, Nationalist Vanguards and Non-Western Literary Modernities" (University of Bologna). In September 2023 we will hold a shared workshop at the Waseda University Brussels Office together with other European scholars of Japanese and Ottoman studies.

在2022年，我将研究重点放在了乌托卡库苏科（Otsuka Kusuoko）（1875-1910）的案例上。虽然她主要被封为诗人，而她的虚构作品被批评为衍生物（通常与她的朋友纳特斯·索塞基（Natsume Soseki）的衍生物相比），但我将她的散文视为当时主流意识形态和审美辩论的讽刺性。大田（Otsuka）围绕艺术的道德问题使她对当代男性批评家的谴责赢得了谴责，因为她的作品并不符合他们对公共礼节的期望，适合在明治的中上层女性。最终，最终，大都市的公开角色问题以及她随后在现代日本文学佳能中的边缘化都告诉我们，关于人与作者之间的身份和作者之间的身份的警务和执行，这是女性作者在她时代期望的，这与“时代”相反，这与“与当代的男性”相反，这与“当时的男性”相反，这是同时的男性，这是当代人的一年。还开始与ERC项目“现代化帝国：启蒙，民族主义先锋和非西方文学现代现代化”（博洛尼亚大学）紧密合作。 2023年9月，我们将与其他欧洲日本和奥斯曼帝国研究学者一起在布鲁塞尔瓦西达大学办公室举行共享研讨会。
