Translations and studies of Japanese literature in Vietnam

Abstract

This research applies quantitative statistical and qualitative analysis methods to investigate the development of Japanese literary translation and research activities in Vietnam through various periods. Generally, both fields appeared in the first half of the twentieth century, but have developed relatively slowly and only achieved strong growth in terms of the number of publications, along with the main trend of diversification of literary genres to be translated/researched.
