The first volume of texts resulting from the international conference celebrating 100 years of Japanese Studies at the University of Warsaw opens with two texts paying homage to the history and tradition of researching Japan in Poland. In the subsequent chapters researchers specializing in the field of Japanese studies discuss the uniqueness or universality of Japanese philosophy, history, aesthetics, and visual arts, reflecting on Japan’s contribution to world civilization in relation to the globalizing world of blurred boundaries.

Keywords: Japan, Japanese culture, Japanese literature.

All texts collected in this volume are characterized by the originality of the subject and the reliability of the presentation of the entire argument. As their themes significantly vary, it should be acknowledged that the authors’ achievements are representative for various fields of contemporary Japanese studies. The publication, therefore, has great research merits.
From Professor Romuald Huszcza’s review

Undoubtedly, the texts collected in this monograph make a valuable contribution to research on Japanese culture, and the international team of authors provides a diverse view on philosophical, historical, art, literary, theatre and film phenomena, which enables the readers to learn about original perspectives on well-known themes as well as immerse themselves in the issues less present in humanistic reflection.
From Professor Krzysztof Loska’s review
