I. Courses and Credits a) Courses available and credits Courses on offer for the 2018 Spring Semester and the credits awarded for each course are as indicated below. Students may take each course only once while enrolled at the Center for Japanese Studies (hereafter known as the CJS). Note that all full-time students are required to register for the Japanese language courses. Students are assigned to one of the five levels indicated by means of a placement test. Each level consists of three types of courses: Japanese for Communication, Japanese Reading and Writing, and Project Work. All full-time students are required to take Japanese for Communication and Japanese Reading and Writing. Project Work is an elective course. In exceptional circumstances, students who have excelled in their 2017 Fall Semester language courses may be eligible to take a special test allowing them to skip a level when registering for the Spring Semester language courses. For further details, please contact the CJS Office. 【 Required elective courses 】

d) Auditing Full-time students may elect to take one course on an auditing basis. This course is not included when calculating the required credit load, but is to be recorded on the registration form. An auditing student is required to attend classes regularly and to prepare for the lectures and activities, but is not required to take examinations nor submit assigned papers. Please note that courses in the Japanese arts may not be taken on an auditing basis. II. Assessment a) Grades Assessment of courses is based on the award of grades A, B, C, and D for the successful completion of a course. Those who fail to complete a course successfully are awarded an F grade. Grades A, B, and C are further divided into three levels. The descriptions of grades awarded are as follows: A+ A A− Excellent D Below average B+ B B− Above average C+ C C− Average F Fail (no credit given) b) Changing course assessment status to Pass/Fail In principle, assessment of courses is based on the award of grades as described above. The Center does, however, provide students with the option of being assessed according to the Pass/Fail system. Unless requested otherwise by the student, all courses taken at the Center are assessed according to the Center’s grading system. Thus, students wishing to change to Pass/Fail status should notify the CJS Office of their wishes during the period specified for changing course assessment status to Pass/Fail, which is between Tuesday, 27 March and Monday, 9 April 2018. The request form is available from the CJS Office. Please note the following provisions in regard to the Pass/Fail option:

・Students cannot opt for Pass/Fail assessment if they are receiving one of these scholarships: Toyota–Nanzan, Ibu Hatsue–Nanzan, Hirschmeier, Tomonokai, or Takashima.

・Exchange students (including ISEP students) are required to submit an official letter of permission from their home institutions if they wish to opt for Pass/Fail assessment.

・Courses in the Japanese arts can not be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.

c) Requests for extensions In special cases, an extension of the period to complete the requirements of a particular course may be granted by the Dean of Academic Affairs (Masahiko Mutsukawa Ph.D.) after consultation with the instructor in charge of the course. As a general rule, the extension period is two weeks. Requests for an extension must be submitted in writing to the Dean of Academic Affairs no later than the last day of classes of the semester in question. Students failing to meet the requirements of the course by the end of any extension granted will receive an “F” grade for the course in question. d) Transcripts The official academic transcripts of students on exchange programs with Nanzan University are sent to their respective home institutions about one month after the end of the semester. In the case of IES Abroad students, the official transcripts are mailed directly to the IES Abroad office, to which students should apply for copies thereof. The official transcripts of students sponsored by the Mitsubishi UFJ Foundation are mailed to the Foundation. Also, in the case of ISEP students, the official transcripts are mailed to the ISEP. Requests for official copies of the transcript of academic records must be accompanied by a fee of 200 yen per copy and the appropriate postage fee.

e) Cheating Cheating and questionable behavior during examinations are strictly forbidden in accordance with University regulations. During closed-book examinations, no books, notebooks, cards, dictionaries, or other materials may be referred to in the examination room while the examination is in progress. All such materials must be stored out of sight. During open-book examinations, only reference materials specifically designated by the instructors may be used. Each examination supervisor will make a judgment on these matters in accordance with the written instructions of the course instructor. Any violation of the above regulations will be dealt with by an assigned committee in accordance with established procedures and may result in loss of credits for the particular course, loss of credits for the entire semester, or expulsion from the program. III. Class Attendance Policy Students must understand that merely attending classes does not guarantee a pass for any course. Regular attendance of all classes is expected by the Center, and exceeding the permitted number of absences for any given course shall result in automatic failure. The maximum numbers of absences permitted are as follows.

Japanese for Communication: fifteen 45-minute class sessions Japanese Reading and Writing: nine 45-minute class sessions Lecture Courses: six 45-minute class sessions All other courses (including Project Work): four 45-minute class sessions

Please take careful note that it is the responsibility of the student to inform the instructor regarding any absence, whatever the reason may be. Absence due to illness or similar unavoidable circumstances will only be excused when supported by a medical certificate or other such official documentation. Please refer to Excused Absences p.8. If you are unsure, please consult the CJS Office. Students, however, may be granted up to five days excused absence for one application. IV. Registration Procedures Registration at the Center does not mean that students are automatically registered at their home universities. It is the responsibility of all students to make sure that they are properly registered at both institutions. Changes and cancellation of course offerings Every effort is made to hold courses listed in the scheduled semester, but offerings are subject to change without notice. Courses for which teachers are not available are subject to cancellation, and classes with fewer than four students may also be subject to cancellation. Students intending to transfer credit for courses taken at the Center to fulfil graduation requirements at their home institutions should plan their programs with as much flexibility as possible in order to prevent delays in graduation. Students are expected to carry out registration procedures in strict accordance with the following: Provisional course registration: Tuesday, 16 January Course registration is carried out at the end of the academic orientation. In order to ensure that all requirements regarding the number of credits are met, students should read through the syllabus and study the timetable schedule thoroughly before registering for courses. Confirmation of course registration details: Thursday, 18 January On the designated date, students are required to confirm that their provisional course registration details are correct by checking their mailboxes, where a copy of the provisional course registration will be placed.

Adding and dropping courses: Thursday, 18 January – Monday, 29 January Students who wish to make changes to their course registrations by adding or dropping courses should come to the CJS Office during the period stated above to make each of those changes. Final course registration: Tuesday, 30 January The final registration form will be put in student mailboxes on 29 January so please enter the details of any changes and submit this form to the CJS Office by 9:20am on 30 January. Changes to course registrations are not possible after this. Please note that if you do not submit the form by the deadline the University will assume that changes do not need to be made to your course registrations. Final confirmation of course registration: Wednesday, 31 January On the designated date, students are required to confirm that their final course registration details are correct. A copy of the final course registration will be placed in student mailboxes, so students must check these to see if any of the details given on the form are incorrect. If there are mistakes, students must inform the CJS Office immediately in order to deal with the matter. This form is the official course registration form and is to be retained by students for their records until the end of the semester. Distribution of class lists to instructors: Wednesday, 31 January – Monday, 5 February Students should check that their name is on the class lists for each course that they are registered for. If it is not on a class list, then both the instructor as well as the CJS Office must be informed without delay. Withdrawal from courses Withdrawal from individual courses after final confirmation of course registration can only be done with the special permission of the Dean of Academic Affairs and only for reasons unforeseen at the time of registration. Please consult the CJS Office for further information. V. Withdrawal from the Program and Refunds Tuition fees are, in principle, non-refundable, and official permission to withdraw from the CJS program can only be granted in exceptional circumstances for reasons unforeseeable at the time of admission, such as illness or an accident. Before beginning formal withdrawal procedures, students are required to discuss the matter with the Dean of Academic Affairs (Masahiko Mutsukawa Ph.D.) as well as with their academic advisor. The official date of withdrawal is set by an assigned committee as the day on which the request is accepted by the CJS Office. Unauthorized absence from class is not considered to constitute withdrawal from the program. The request for permission to withdraw must be approved first by the committee and then by the President of the University. It usually takes approximately two weeks to grant an official withdrawal. Permission to withdraw is not granted automatically upon request. Since students are permitted to enter the country on the condition that they maintain full-time student status, it is the responsibility of Nanzan University to report any withdrawal to the Immigration Office within two weeks. Withdrawal from the program usually results in the student having to change visa status or leave Japan. Any request for a refund of tuition fees must be stated on the request for permission to withdraw. Refunds of tuition fees are not usually given in Japanese universities, but after consideration of the reasons for withdrawal the Director of the Center for International Affairs may, with the approval of the President of the University, grant a partial or full refund in accordance with the following.

Withdrawal before the end of the 2nd week 100% refund Withdrawal before the end of the 4th week 75% refund Withdrawal before the end of the 6th week 50% refund Withdrawal before the end of the 8th week 25% refund Withdrawal after the end of the 8th week No refund

A 30,000 yen withdrawal fee is deducted from the tuition fees paid, and the above percentage is applied to the remaining balance. Please note that the request for withdrawal must be submitted in writing. Oral requests are not accepted.

VI. Excused Absences The CJS permits students to be absent in the circumstances outlined below. Students wishing to have an absence excused should obtain an Excused Absence Request Form from the CJS Office and submit it with the necessary supporting documents.

In cases where this is impossible, hand in this form within one week from the day following the period of absence. The period of excused absence, the prerequisite circumstances for approval, the necessary documentation and the measures for dealing with assessment occurring during the period of absence are as follows. Students may be granted up to five days excused absence for one application. Funerals Absences are excused for funerals of close family members, defined as parents, siblings, grandparents, uncles and aunts, children or spouse, or in the case of a home-stay, the immediate host family. Please attach a letter from your parent/guardian to the Letter of Excused Absence Request as supporting documentation. The following measures will be taken:

A make-up test will be carried out if major pieces of assessment such as scheduled course examinations are missed. However, the highest attainable mark will be 90%.

Make-up tests will not be carried out to cover quizzes missed. Note: If overseas travel is involved, please submit a copy of the departure and return date stamped pages of your passport to the CJS Office. Weddings Absences are excused for weddings of parents, siblings or grandparents. Please attach a letter from your parent/guardian to the Letter of Excused Absence Request as proof of attendance at the wedding. The following measures will be taken:

Illness Submit official documentation such as your medical receipts or medical documents with the Excused Absence Request Form.

61020 JAPANESE LITERATURE II INSTRUCTOR: Sharif Mebed COURSE DESCRIPTION This course is a stand-alone course that does not require having taken Survey of Japanese Literature I. The goal of this course is to provide an overview and understanding of some basic concepts and themes of Japanese culture as they can be found in prose and poetry from the Kamakura period through the Edo period (1185-1868). Although literature has changed in form, theme and function from the middle ages, there may be some concepts that are constant and some that may possibly be unique to Japanese literature and culture. We will try to discover what those may be through readings and class discussions. This course deals with a number of extremely well know works starting with the Tale of the Heike and ending with a discussion of Haiku forms. Some other key themes for discussion in this course include depiction of class, gender and economic difference, as well as the feasibility of applying western concepts of literary theory to Japanese poetry and fiction. We will also see how poetry and prose written long ago (and presumably far from our native lands) can appear strangely familiar, and talk to us in the here and now. COURSE GOALS Students will have gained background cultural knowledge to enable them to analyze prose and poetry (in

translation) from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. Students will be able to comprehend Japanese traditional aesthetic concepts within Japanese works of

literature including Wabi & Sabi, Mono-no-aware, Iki, Miyabi, etc. Students will be able to formulate opinions about the possible meanings of texts taken up in class and

articulate them in short papers and presentations. COURSE SCHEDULE
