     the Asian Studies Program, will be offering a new course for Fall 2019.<br> <br> Wolves, Whales, and ‘Black Swans’: An Environmental History of Japan<br> <br> HIST 494/713 will be offered Thursdays from 4:30 - 7:00 p.m. Instructor:  Dr. Constantine Vaporis<span><br> <br>
     This seminar examines the evolving relationship between forms of power,
     including the state, and nature in the emergence of modern Japan. 
    Through our readings and discussions, we will explore the ways in which 
    power has shaped relationships with natural and unnatural landscapes on 
    the Japanese archipelago. Spanning the seventeenth to the twenty-first 
    century, this seminar will cover topics such as: the influence of 
    traditional values and practices on contemporary ecologies; 
    human-animal-environment relations; the history of ideas about the 
    natural world; public health and industrial pollution; natural and 
    unnatural disasters, including earthquakes and nuclear accidents; and, 
    the meanings of the Anthropocene for Japan’s history.</span></span></span></div>

<Title>Dr. Robert Deluty Publishes his 57th Book</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>Dr. Robert Deluty, associate dean emeritus of the Graduate School, has published his 57th book, "The Choice of Attention." </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>In his review, Dr. Ronald Pies writes,</div>
    <div>"Robert Deluty's excellent new collection of short poems quotes the author Henry Miller as follows: 'The moment one gives close attention to anything, even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.' Deluty demonstrates this by creating hundreds of self-contained worlds, born of the poet's meticulous attention to humanity's foibles, joys, and sorrows. With an eye both hawk-sharp and warmly sympathetic, Deluty misses nothing and reveals everything in the microcosms of his poems."</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>"The Choice of Attention," as well as Dr. Deluty's other books, are on sale at the campus bookstore.</div>
