In case anyone wasn't aware, LtDomer presented his paper "Reconstructing the Battle of Nagashino 1575: Understanding Samurai Commander Decision Making Process Through Modern Doctrinal Concepts" at the Japan Studies Association conference here in Honolulu today in "The Politics of War". Here's his lead in:

http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150491161673985&set=pu.104533213984&type=1&theater

It went over great with everyone there, and people kept grabbing him to ask when he was publishing, so I think it can be considered a success. Good job 'Domer!

We'll be releasing the audio, as well as an interview, etc. on the podcast in the next few weeks. So, if you haven't listened to the podcast yet, now is the time to start.

Also, we're covering the conference on the facebook page linked above, as well as on twitter @samuraiarchives and @toranosukev

Congratulations Domer. I hope your paper will be published. Looking forward to reading it. What you did what a big service to the history community as a whole. The real Nagashino has to explained to get rid of all the myths that are out there. Again, congratulations.

What kind of group is it? I couldn't find a conference agenda on their home page, and their journal page said the table of contents for after issues after 2004 were unavailable.
Are you going to publish your paper in the journal? It says "Papers presented at the conference regularly appear in the Japan Studies Assocation Journal." Anyway, I am looking forward to the paper.

I'm not going to publish it in their journal. I've had two professors suggest I send it to Monumenta Nipponica, so that's where I'm going to start, and I'll go from there.

The JSA is...how shall I say...an INFORMAL group. Put it this way, if the Association of Asian Studies conference last March/April was the New York Yankees, the JSA conference was your company's rec league softball team. Great people, and lots of good presentations, but overall it was a very low-stress affair, and I didn't really feel out of my league. It was a good confidence booster. In a couple of ways it seemed like it was designed for people who wanted to present their work, but weren't quite ready for prime time--and honestly, that's how I felt going into it. After having done it, I think I would have had a shot at AAS this year, but I had to apply by August, and wasn't ready at that time.

Since AAS was the first conference I attended, I kind of expected a higher level at this one. However, I was a bit surprised at how many of the presenters either didn't speak Japanese or didn't seem to have "Japan" as their focus, but incorporated it into their research so had a connection to present. That's why I got the impression that it was a "not quite ready for prime time" conference--people could float their ideas, get some feedback, but if they tried to do that at AAS without having done significant research in Japanese, it'd be...not well received. Several of the presenters gave the impression that their thought process was "Hey, I've got this paper I've done, and it relates to Japan, and I want to go present at a conference, so...oh, here's this JSA conference, and it's in Hawaii, let's go there!"

For me, like I said, I couldn't get my application in to AAS in time, and AAS being in Toronto this year, it was just a bridge too far (literally). When this one was announced here in Honolulu, I applied as a means of motivating myself on this paper through the course of the semester. It served it's purpose quite well, and I'm happy with how it turned out.

EDIT: Another gauge of how prestigious (or not) the JSA conference was: the only big time person from UH to show up was Dr. Christine Yano from the anthro department, who was the plenary speaker. To my knowledge she didn't stick around for any of the paper presentations. To me that was very telling, that with all the Japan specialists at UH, none of them bothered to go to this conference that was literally less than a mile away.

I'll post the agenda here later today, as I've got it saved as a word file. Nothing I say here is meant to take away from the people involved or the experience--it was fantastic, and I really had a great time. The podcasts should be fun for listeners, and we've got a special guest joining us on them. But it is what it is, and it's certainly not on par with AAS or anything.

Sounds about right - the AAS conference presentations were all from completed, or nearly complete papers, and was very formal. This was relatively informal, and I even attended one where the prof basically said "I haven't actually written anything, but I'm going to talk a bit about an idea or two, and a little about what I've written before."

Also, the organization was pretty bad, in terms of what papers were on what panel. It could have been organized much better. That said, if it were organized by time period, I'd have been on the same panel as 7 Samurai Bandits (which would be good) and Teahouse of the August Moon (which would have made me kill someone).

LOL ... I can't shake that visual of Nobunaga's TOC littered with acetate maps, alcohol markers, and power point slides of S2 products, DST's, CCIRs, and COAs. The horror!


All that's missing is porta-potties and noisy generators running non-stop.

Great job MAJ L. Looking forward to hearing the podcast.

That's pretty much my entire concept. At one point I even bought alcohol markers and acetate, and was drawing sittemps on the map. I love that stuff, and the idea of each side having a TOC and how it would be operating was a key inspiration for the whole thing. I had to distill it down, of course, for an academic audience, but you'll recognize everything I did simply by looking at the COA slides (when we release the audio via podcast, I'll also release the youtube link). To you, nothing I did will be all that new, because it's what we do every freaking day. To a room full of academics, it's apparently mind-blowing.

We've released the audio as a podcast, so I hope people enjoy it. Here's the video of my talk and question and answer:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9dr4zNWH6A&feature=youtu.be

We'll follow up with a question/answer podcast after people have had a bit of time to watch and think of things to ask, and that will likely finish off Nagashino for us (FINALLY, I KNOW, RIGHT???).

So you decided to put it on video like I suggested. Excellent. Smile But I'm surprised Nate would want all of us seeing him on video.

I will watch on Monday on my way to work!

Yes.

Like you suggested. Totally because you suggested it. Completely not because we were planning to do it anyways. Nope, all credit to you.

I care

If people want to post questions for the follow up, here is as good a place as any.

What an eclectic mix of presentations!

This title caught my attention: Terrible Knowledge: Using Japanese Anime to Teach WWII without Traumatizing Students: Mara Miller, Independent Scholar. This reminds me of what I am against when I do my reviews on Asian American fiction. The Japanese occupation seems to be the main topic or subtopic in all Chinese- and Korean-American novels. How can the novelists portray war with sensitivity and objectivity? Is it possible?

It's good to see your face in your video, Itdomer. Congratulations!

Carmen
