About
Dr. Bullock received an M.A. in Asian Studies from the University of California at Berkeley, and a Ph.D. in Japanese Language and Literature from Stanford University. She specializes in modern Japanese literature from the Meiji period (beginning 1868) to the present, with additional interests in gender and feminist studies, history, film and popular culture. Her Ph.D. thesis, entitled A Single Drop of Crimson: Takahashi Takako and the Narration of Liminality, analyzed the interrogation of constructions of femininity in the works of this modern woman writer. She is currently involved in a book project that expands this research to literature written by women of the "Shôwa one-digit generation," or women who were born in the first decade of the Shôwa era (beginning 1926) and who debuted on the literary scene in Japan in the 1960s and 1970s, i.e. roughly contemporaneous to the renaissance of the Japanese feminist movement.
