CAS Luncheon Series. David Atherton, assistant professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Civilizations, will present his current research at our next Luncheon Series event on Tuesday, March 15. His talk will be on "Birthing a Book: Imagining Authorial Creativity in Early Modern Japan." This talk will examine works of illustrated fiction from the turn of the nineteenth century in which the author himself (inevitably himself) came to feature as the main protagonist. Tuesday, March 15, 12 p.m., 1424 Broadway. Lunch will be provided.
