The 1st International Symposium on Digital Humanities for Japanese Arts and Cultures
Since the start of our Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Global COE (Center of Excellence) Program “Digital Humanities Center for Japanese Arts and Cultures” at Ritsumeikan University in June 2007, we have been conducting education and research, aiming at creating a new type of the humanities that fully utilize information technologies so that we could bridge the gap between Japanese Studies in Japan and abroad, as well as lead the humanities in the future.
Welcoming distinguished scholars in various fields of digital humanities from all over the world as guest speakers, we sincerely hope that our 1st International Symposium on Digital Humanities for Japanese Arts and Cultures (DH-JAC2009) will provide us with a great opportunity not only to look back and reflect on our activities in the past two years, but also to find a path to take for the future of the Center. Please join us on this important occasion.
