Dear KineJapan folks,

I'm pleased to announce that at long last the EALL department at UC 
Irvine is accepting applications for an open-rank Modern or Contemporary 
Japanese Literature and Culture position. Because of technical issues, 
the application process is split into a senior level (associate/full 
professor ) and junior level (assistant professor ) component, but these 
are for a single search. A description follows, along with links to the 
applications.

If you have any questions about the job or application process, feel 
free to contact me directly.

yours,

~~Susan Blakeley Klein
