IIIII DVSONOFPHLOLOGYAND LTERATUREWESTERNProfessorIYEIRI, YokoEnglish philologyFaculty MembersProfessorHIROTA, AtsuhikoEnglish dramaAssociate ProfessorMINAMITANI, YoshimiEnglish and Irish FictionWe off er, with the help of various parttime instructors, lectures and seminars on a broad range of subjects in the fi elds of English literature and linguistics. While we take care to teach the historical and cultural background so that students can fully appreciate literary works written in English, it has been the tradition of our department to lay stress on careful reading of the text itself. We, therefore, expect students to use dictionaries constantly.Students are to write their graduation theses in English. Th ey are encouraged to choose their own area of pursuit for themselves and may write their theses on any subject, from Shakespeare to Sherlock Holmes in the fi eld of literature, and from Old English to Present-day English (including World Englishes) in linguistics. Th is department and that of American Literature are closely connected, most of the courses being common to both departments which merge into one at the graduate school level.16❶ Students reading and discussing a book❷Classroom Photo❶❶❷❷DEPARTMENT OFENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURES
