Welcome to the latest edition of the Centre for Japanese Studies (CJS) e-Newsletter.
In this issue, we review some of the key moments of the past year for CJS and update on the work of our research members and what they have been focusing on. We are also delighted to announce some of our upcoming events, as well as special reports from students and staff including a summary of a recent trip to Japan by Study Abroad Partnerships Manager at UEA, Katrien Verbruggen, a report from undergraduate student John Garner on his recent year abroad in Japan, an article by Emma Kiey on her activities since graduating from the MA in Interdisciplinary Japanese Studies, and an introduction to life as a PhD student by Hirohito Tsuji.
We always welcome feedback and are very happy to pass on Japan-related news of relevance to our readership – so do get in touch at cjs@uea.ac.uk.
