Patterns of Shame Culture of Homosexuality in India
Guest Editor’s Introduction
Remnants of Manshūkoku (Manchukuo)

At the same time, it grapples with reading Japanese-language Manshū literature with postcolonial reflexivity. Imamura Eiji was an ethnic Korean who was an active participant in the Japanese language literary community of Japan-occupied Manchuria. While he is best known for his short s…
