Undergraduate section "Japan at War and Peace" is a course designed for advanced students interested in the Japanese experience of the Asia Pacific War and the way that experience has been remembered and recorded in Japanese literature, film, poetry, and other artistic forms. The course is divided into three sections dealing respectively with Japanese behavior during the war, the experience of the atomic bomb, and the impact of the war on postwar Japanese culture. While considering the Japanese experience, students will be encouraged to think about war in general, the ways it is justified and the long-term effects it has on cultural life.
