Event outline:

The Center for Glocal Studies (CGS), Seijo University, will host the youth training workshop (fifth) “Transborder Symbols” as part of the “glocal studies” (studies on the phenomenon of glocalization, which occurs through the simultaneous and mutual interaction of the forces of globalization and localization) program that the center is advocating and promoting.
 Globalization and glocalization are expressed in various forms in not only social and economic studies, but also in literature and culture. The Center for Glocal Studies has studied these aspects of such phenomena continuously. As such, this fifth “Transborder Symbols” lecture focuses on a 20th-century American work of literature and the place of ikebana in Western aesthetics, considering the glocal aspects that can be observed in each. Jack London’s short story The Apostate (1906), which can be considered an anti-capitalist text that lambasts the use of child labor, can also be read biographically as an example of London’s experiences until that point. Reading it in the context of the US–European transborder discourses of “aging and degeneration” and “apostasy” in the early 20th century allows for an examination of the framework of reading that should have existed at the time of its publication. The presentation about ikebana examines how ikebana relates to the term “work,” which is a concept in Western aesthetics. To this end, the presenter interprets the discourse of Sofu Teshigahara, the founder of the Sogetsu school, and considers the idea of production in ikebana as it relates to time and space.
