SUMMER SCHOOL PROGRAM: JAPANESE VISUAL CULTURE

[Richard Chalfen]

ANNOUNCING: Summer Program on Japanese Visual Culture

For the fourth year, an exciting six-week Summer Program on
Japanese Visual Culture will take place at the Tokyo Campus of
Temple University Japan (TUJ), May 14 ? June 29, 2007.  This
program consists of two coordinated courses: the first focuses
on approaches to studying the richness and complexity of
visual culture in Japan; the second allows students to develop
modest visual projects (digital still, video or web) on
selective topics immediately relevant to visual culture. 
Instruction is in English.  All course work will be
supplemented with an active program of cultural events, trips
and lectures in and around Tokyo.  Students live in Temple
dormitories alongside Japanese students studying English at
TUJ.  This program grants course credits to both undergraduate
and graduate students.
