Reunion After 43 Years with Former Professor Dr. Akihiro Yamada in Tsu, Mie Prefecture (May 2024)

"I met Dr. Akihiro Yamada, Professor Emeritus of Shinshu University, a professor of English studies who was a great help to me during my time at Shinshu University. He later moved to Meisei University and continues his research on Shakespeare at his home in Tsu, Mie Prefecture. At 95 years old, he is still writing his thesis with great enthusiasm.

A Nostalgic Journey Back to Shinshu: Reliving the Scenic Charms of Matsumoto in Early Winter

On November 22nd, as I walked along the Meotoba River, I caught sight of the snow-capped peak of 'Norikura.' Despite having strolled along this river many times before, I hadn't realized that I was gazing upon Norikura. The previous day's news about the snow in the Alps had captured my attention, prompting an irresistible urge to witness it in person.
