Search Cornell Search Chronicle Online March 4, 2010 De Bary discusses language, culture in world literature By Erik Johnson de Bary How do language and culture interact in world literature, and how significant is their relationship in defining the way we think as a society? These questions were the focus of "Traveling, and Translating, the Distance: Tawada Yoko and the Thought of World Literature," the Society for the Humanities Annual Invitational Lecture, Feb. 24 in Goldwin Smith Hall. In the lecture, Brett de Bary, professor of Asian studies and comparative literature, discussed interactions between language and culture by referring to the texts and translations of Japanese author Tawada Yoko, whose works deal largely with the arbitrary nature of cultural boundaries in differentiating language and words. Such questions provide rich material for Tawada, who writes in both Japanese and German. De Bary presented Tawada as one of a growing number of gifted writers whose works reflect a global aesthetic sensibility. She cited the fluid nature of Tawada's prose, which often fuses different cultural symbols into a single language and which questions the strength of boundaries that hold the ideas of linguistics and culture together.
