Scholars Collaborate on Unique Book Project at RUL

SCUA book project meeting in August 2022

From August 11–13, a group of scholars met in New Brunswick to work on a new book. Tentatively titled, In Search of True Ways: Rutgers and Japan during the Early Meiji Period, this book is being edited by Haruko Wakabayashi of Rutgers’ Department of Asian Languages and Cultures and Fernanda Perrone of Rutgers University Libraries Special Collections and University Archives (SC/UA). This project is unusual in that it combines scholarship written in English with that written in Japanese, giving a broad perspective and bringing to light much new information.
