BiographyHistory

'Professor Yasue Arimitsu studied at the Australian National University as an inaugural recipient of the Australia-Japan Foundation (AJF) Graduate Scholarship. Ever since returning to Japan, she has continued her research activities, having received a number of grants from the AJF.

'She is regarded as Japan’s foremost expert on Australian literature, having served as the President of the Australian Studies Association of Japan as well as President of the Australian-New Zealand Literary Society of Japan. In 2002 she received the AJF’s Sir Neil Currie Award for her work Australian Identity: Struggle and Transformation in Australian Literature. In 2007 she released an anthology of Australian short stories and received the same award to support its publication. More recently, she has supervised the Masterpieces of Australian Contemporary Literature Series, which is supported by the Australia-Japan Foundation.'
