JCLA-KCLA Joint Session Roundtable
Mijin Lee
Gyeongkuk National University, Korea
This JCLA-KCLA Joint Session Roundtable will bring together members from the Korean Comparative Literature Association (KCLA) and the Japanese Comparative Literature Association (JCLA). The session aims to compare current trends in the field of comparative literature, discuss academic concerns, and share survival tactics for scholarly work, focusing on the following four topics:
First, "Recent Activities" will involve sharing key activities and research achievements of each association, while also exploring future directions for comparative literature research in the current academic environment. Second, "Education and Social Impact" will examine changes in comparative literature education and its influence on society, discussing ways the discipline can contribute to the community. Third, "Academic Publication" will analyze trends in scholarly publishing within comparative literature and exchange practical information on strategies for publishing in domestic and international journals and monographs. Finally, "Internationalization and the Global Anglophone" will delve into methods for expanding comparative literature research globally, including strategies for promoting exchanges with the Anglophone academic world and building international scholarly networks. This will also involve an extended discussion on comparative literary discourse possible between Anglophone comparative literature and East Asia.
This roundtable is expected to be a meaningful opportunity to vitalize academic exchange between the two associations and collectively seek solutions to the pressing challenges facing the field of comparative literature.
