Dr. Ewa Palasz-Rutkowska

Dr. Ewa Rutkowska is assistant professor in the Japanese and Korean department of Warsaw University, editor of the journal "Japonica", and also Chairman of the Board of the Takashima Foundation, which promotes Japanese studies in Poland. As she was on a month's visit to Japan, with the main purpose of conferring a Polish order on the Takashima Foundation's founder, Mr. K. Takashima; she purposely extended her stay so as to be able to accept the invitation to address the ASJ.

Dr. Palasz-Rutkowska analysed Japanese policy in Manchuria for her master's thesis, and wrote "General Masaki Jinzaburoh and the Imperial Way Faction (Kohdohha) in the Japanese Army, 1932-1936" as her doctoral dissertation at the University of Warsaw. She has been in Japan on two occasions, first with a Mombusho scholarship and then as a Japan Foundation fellow.

We are indebted to H.E. the Polish Ambassador, Mr. Henryk Lipszyc, for taking advantage of a visit to Japan by Dr. Palasz-Rutkowska to invite her to be our speaker in March.
