The 2nd Joint Colloquium of the Art Research Center (ARC), Ritsumeikan University and the Center for Japanese Studies (CJS), University of California, Berkeley was held at the ARC on June 21, 2024.

The colloquium began with opening remarks by the Director of the ARC, Prof. Ryo Akama (College of Letters, Ritsumeikan University), followed by presentations from individual graduate students associated with each of the two Centers, some presenting in English and some in Japanese.

The first five papers explored a range of topics in Japanese Studies related to performance and performing arts, including discussions of performing arts in geisha districts (kagai), gender identity among onnagata performers, and the representation of historical figures as heroes or villains in prewar modern theatre. The final two papers expanded into "new approaches to cultural studies," with one using the example of mango production in Miyazaki prefecture in a broader discussion of the establishment of tropical fruit cultivation in Japan.

A general discussion followed the individual student presentations. Attendees noted that many of the presenters' papers focused on a similar, overlapping, historical period - namely, the decades spanning the late 19th to early 20th centuries - and suggested that, taken together, these papers on disparate topics could reveal new insights about the period.

ARC Research Manager Dr. Travis Seifman, chair of the colloquium, expressed:"Academic cultures can differ greatly from one place to another; while many scholars focus on uncovering empirical details, others are more theoretical and interpretive in their approaches. International colloquia like this one provide invaluable opportunities to encounter and engage with one another's differing approaches to scholarship, and for each of us to be inspired towards new ideas or approaches for our own research. I am excited that we have begun this regular series of joint colloquia, and believe their impact will only grow as the mutual engagement continues."

The colloquium concluded with closing remarks from Prof. Jonathan Zwicker (Center for Japanese Studies, Dept. of East Asian Languages and Cultures, University of California, Berkeley).

Afterward, a reception was held, providing colloquium participants with further opportunities for networking and exchanging opinions and ideas about their research.
