What makes Japanese literature different? What themes leave a lasting impact on us after reading Japanese novels?
Over the course of two days, we will travel together into the world of Japanese literature, looking at stories, details, and emotions from a different perspective.
Day 1 | Japanese Literature and the Small Details
- We will see how simple daily details can become a central focus of the story.
- The seasons and nature and their relationship with the characters' emotions, as well as the symbolism of cats and the reason for their recurring presence in Japanese novels.
- We will get to know some Japanese concepts that will help us understand the spirit of Japanese literature in depth.
In conclusion, we will share together by writing something simple from our lives and turning it into the beginning of a story.
Day 2 | Themes of Japanese Literature
We will delve deeper into the themes that recur in Japanese novels, where we will choose a selection of novels and explore their details and themes from loneliness, silence, regret, and belonging, to the social and philosophical aspects of Japanese literature.

We will discuss how each narrative uses a completely different story but ultimately raises a larger question about humanity, life, and choices.
At the end of this day, we will learn how to write our names in Japanese.
