Connecting multiple academic areas, this book addresses three
aspects of the poetry of Jose Watanabe: 1) the construction of
"Japaneseness" in the poetic works and public figure of the poet,
2) the skillful manipulation of literary devices characteristic of
his poetry, 3) the unique sensibilities and moods of ephemerality
and ineffableness prevalent in his poetic works. The
trans/interdisciplinary nature of the book intends to promote a
dialogue and exchange of ideas across academic fields neglected in
most studies on the Peruvian poet. Written by researchers based in
Japan, it offers a unique perspective of Japanese cultural
phenomenon unavailable in previous studies. The goal of the book is
to shed light on how Japan continues to be seen by the West through
essentialist notions and stereotypical representations, as well as
to highlight the fact that the literary quality of Watanabe's
poetic artistry does not reside in it being "Japanese" and can be
appreciated without resorting to essentialist categorizations based
on positive Japanese stereotypes.
