However, when the plays are performed in translated texts, what issues could be raised? In this symposium, we would like to discuss Shakespeare\u2019s translations used to stage performances from the viewpoints of a translator, a director and an actor.<br \/>\nFirst, Professor Odashima, who has translated many modern plays, will discuss the significance of translation and its difficulties. Then, from the standpoint of a director, Mr. Nishikawa gives his opinions on cutting or adapting the texts for performances, and especially on the difference of Shakespeare\u2019s texts compared to modern plays. Professor Fuyuki will raise questions about Shakespeare\u2019s translations and about how to represent the cultural differences on stage. Mr. Oshio, a graduate student, will give his comments on Shakespeare on stage, based on his experience as an actor taking on several roles in Shakespeare\u2019s plays.<br \/>\nThe discussion about what direction Shakespeare performances in translation should head to is expected to be deepened in the symposium.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008080; font-size: x-large;\">Free and open to the public<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\"><b>Date:\u00a0<\/b>July 3rd, 2021<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><b>Time:<\/b>\u00a014:00 &#8211; 15:30 (JST) GMT+9<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><b><b>Speaker:\u00a0<\/b><\/b>Nobuhiro\u00a0Nishikawa, director of Bungakuza<br \/>\nKoshi Odashima, Professor,\u00a0Faculty of Letters, Arts and Sciences, School of Culture, Media and Society, Waseda University<br \/>\nSeiji Oshio, Masters course student of Graduate School of Letters, Arts and Sciences, Waseda University<\/li>\n<li><strong>Moderator:<\/strong> Hiromi Fuyuki, Professor,\u00a0Letters, Arts and Sciences, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Waseda University<\/li>\n<li><b>Sponsored by:\u00a0<\/b>Faculty of Letters, Arts and Sciences, Waseda University<b><br \/>\n<\/b>Global Japanese Studies Model Unit, Waseda University Top Global University Project<br \/>\nWaseda University Cultural Affairs Division<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><b>Language:<\/b>\u00a0Japanese<\/li>\n<li><b>Venue:\u00a0<\/b>Online<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><b>Participation Method:\u00a0<\/b>Please apply\u00a0here\u00a0to participate. *\u00a0The acceptance of the application has ended.<br \/>\nYou can watch videos of the Event Japan on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mKFG2UlYqxU\">You Tube<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-8971 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/sgu\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Shakespear-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"286\" height=\"192\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Global Japanese Studies Model Unit is pleased to invite you to the online symposium &#8220;Translation and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1986,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[82],"class_list":["post-1985","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","tag-events-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1985"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1985\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2777,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1985\/revisions\/2777"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1986"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/flas\/gjs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
