Inoue Yasushi Award for Outstanding Research in Japanese Literature in Australia

The Inoue Yasushi Award for Outstanding Research in Japanese Literature in Australia is given annually for five years, beginning in 2007, for the best refereed journal article or book chapter published in English during the previous year by a researcher based in Australia. Its aim is to promote and support superior scholarship in Japanese literature by Australia-based scholars. The recipient will receive $1000 as well as a certificate of the award’s conferral.

Dr Roman Rosenbaum, University of Sydney, is the 2008 winner of the Inoue Yasush Award, for his paper "The 'Generation of the Burnt-Out Ruins'" published in Japanese Studies (Vol. 2, No.3, December 2007).
