Nagoya American Studies Summer Seminar 2010
Nagoya American Studies Summer Seminar 2010

Nanzan University invites the public to attend a free American Studies seminar entitled "Toward a Common Memory of Our Past.” Three keynote speakers from the US and Japan will each speak for 60 minutes on the theme of historical memory with a focus on WWII and reconciliation. Simultaneous translation (and A/C) will be provided! It is hard to find a good panel discussion in English in Japan, so do not miss this opportunity. It brings me back to my university days and the intellectual stimulation of the University of Washington Campus in Seattle. As I am more likely to spend my nights at karaoke recently, this is a very exciting change of pace for me!
