Course Description | Introduction to Classical Japanese II JPNS4008OC, 4 points. You are required to take Introduction to Classical Japanese 1I, JPNS4007OC, 4 points with this course Instructor: Matthew Fraleigh This course is intended primarily for beginning students who have no prior knowledge of Classical Japanese (bungo 文語 / kobun 古文 / kogo 古語, etc.). It is designed to give students a systematic and intensive introduction to the grammar of classical Japanese. Texts are taken mainly from the Heian and medieval periods, though texts from later periods will also be introduced. It is expected that by the end of the course students will have acquired a firm foundation in classical Japanese grammar and will be able to read classical Japanese texts with the aid of a dictionary. Students will generally find that they also have an improved grasp of modern Japanese grammar and will also gain experience in using Japanese-Japanese dictionaries. The course will also include some instruction in reading cursive Japanese, primarily variant kana (hentaigana). A sample syllabus is available for reference. Course Schedule: The course will be taught Monday-Friday in a four hour block (with two short breaks), and the current plan is to hold class from 8 am to 12 noon EST. As part of the application process, applicants will be surveyed about their schedules and it is possible that some adjustments will be made to the class meeting time to accommodate participants in different time zones. The final course schedule will be determined and shared with potential students prior to when students need to confirm participation in the course. To enroll in this course, you must apply to the Kyoto Consortium (KCJS) Summer: Classical Japanese Program through the Center for Undergraduate Global Engagement (UGE). Global Learning Scholarships available. Tuition charges apply. Please note the program dates are different from the Summer Term A & B dates. |
