WELCOME TO THE EAJS WEBSITE

The European Association for Japanese Studies (EAJS) welcomes you to its home page. If you are a member, click here for information about the format. If you are not a member, you are of course invited to browse at will, but clicking here will take you to the membership application page.

EAJS exists, according to its Constitution, to aid "the cultivation and promotion of scholarship and research in the field of Japanese studies in all countries of geographic Europe." International conferences, where younger scholars can often meet the world leaders in their field, are held every three years. Other activities, such as the Bulletin, help all members keep in touch with each other and there is special emphasis on giving support to those who intend to make a career in Japanese studies.


The 12th International Conference of EAJS will be held at Salento University in Lecce/Italy in 2008, September 20-23.

The 5th EAJS Workshop for Doctoral Students will be held at Salento University in Lecce/Italy 18-20 September 2008. Application deadline is: 30 April 2008.
