Hello everyone,
I am a graduate student at the Communication University of China, majoring in Japanese studies. Currently, I am conducting research on the reception of female characters in contemporary Japanese literature (Haruki Murakami’s works specifically speaking) among overseas readers and especially English-speaking readers, ensuring adherence to the ethical guidelines and standards of my university.
I would greatly appreciate it if members of our community could spare a few moments to complete a brief survey regarding your perceptions and expectations of female characters in Japanese literature. The survey should take no longer than 3 minutes and can be accessed here:
[https://forms.gle/8rS4KMvUSBA9h2Nu6](https://forms.gle/8rS4KMvUSBA9h2Nu6)
Your insights and expectations, regardless of your familiarity with Haruki Murakami’s works, are incredibly valuable to me. Your perspective as a reader of Japanese literature or not, is essential for this research.
Rest assured, all information provided in this survey will be kept anonymous and used solely for research purposes. Should you have any questions or comments, please feel free to post them here or reach out to me directly at [fusuhanqing@cuc.edu.cn](mailto:fusuhanqing@cuc.edu.cn).
Once you’ve completed the survey, I invite you to share your thoughts on female characters in Japanese/Asian lit here. Your participation in this research is greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all who take the time to complete the survey and contribute to my research.
