El descubrimiento de España de Fernando Iwasaki: la conquista del humor
No full textEn la presente investigación se mostrará cómo Fernando Iwasaki (Lima, 1961) consigue mediante la hibridación genérica implícita en El descubrimiento de España desatar la sonrisa de los lectores, acercarlos a su particular hallazgo del país a través de la música, de la anécdota y de su propio trabajo como historiador. Se analizarán como fundamentales los deslindamientos genéricos, culturales y geográficos. Pese a su temprana publicación en 1996, en la obra ya se perfilan los rasgos que caracterizan la escritura del hispanoperuano: la ironía, la parodia, la autoficción y las intertextualidades. Se subrayará el crescendo en los recursos formales y temáticos, desde los capítulos iniciales en los que prevalecen el extrañamiento y la mirada pueril hasta la crítica sarcástica en la que posteriormente un Iwasaki adulto ahonda en el orgullo castizo. Asimismo, se destacará la relevancia de la música en este descubrimiento, donde el autor recurre a las canciones más populares —y a menudo, kitsch— del panorama español para fomentar la conquista del humor.The present investigation will demonstrate how Fernando Iwasaki (Lima, 1961), through the implicit generic hybridation found in El descubrimiento de España, manages to make the reader smile and feel closer to his special discovery of this country, made through music, the anecdotic and his own work as historian. It will also analyze the demarcations in gender, culture and geography that are fundamental to the novel. Despite its early publishing in 1996, this book already shows the characteristic writing of the Hispanic-Peruvian author: irony, parody, autofiction and intertextuality. It is important to note the crescendo in formal and thematic resources, from the estrangement and childlike vision of the first chapters to the sarcasm with which an adult Iwasaki critics the concept of Spanish pride. It will also be noted the importance of music in this discovery, since the writer appeals to the most popular —and often, kitsch— songs of the Spanish scene to promote the conquest of humor

La ficción como coartada del apátrida: un milagro informal de Fernando Iwasaki
No full textThe article analyzes the book of short stories entitled “Un milagro informal” (2003) (An
Informal Miracle), written by the Hispano-Peruvian author Fernando Iwasaki, in the context of
the new trends in Peruvian narrative literature. In a sense, the book’s table of contents allows us
to realize that Iwasaki has selected the most representative tales from his genre of short-story
telling. Besides, he has anthologized himself and has introduced new tales that provide evidence
of a clear evolution in his literary work. Thus, he eliminates any kind of boundaries, not only in
those aspects involving subject matters and styles, but also in the different genres. This evolution
is clearly represented in the author's forms, the stylistic, even linguistic distance that are present
in the tales written in Seville in recent years, when compared with those written in Lima during
the eighties. Nonetheless, despite the numerous metamorphoses that Iwasaski’s writings present,
there are four main subjects that cover transversally all his short-story telling output, namely, 1)
the imaginary element, that bursts abruptly into the world of realism, 2) the eroticism, trimmed
with jocular and ludic elements, 3) the parody, presented mainly in the detective genre and 4)
the intertextual puns. These four elements are perfectly connected and invite most of the time the
use of a sort caustic and corrosivehumour
Developing Internet Writing Help Devices for Japanese Learners of German
No full textIn the beginning stage of learning a foreign language, listening, speaking, and reading are often given priority, while writing is the focus of attention only in a later learning phase. But this general tendency does not always warrant merit. For example, there are special social learning contexts, such as learning German at Japanese universities where most learners are young adults and have strong desires to express themselves in the foreign language they are learning. These learners also have a background of having already studied English for six years, a language whose vocabulary and grammar exhibit many similarities with those of German. In this particular case, the intentional accentuation of training writing skills on the beginners level would be possible along with other skills and could contribute to motivating students for further learning. But, for the training of writing skills at the beginner' s level, we need some kind of special devices for helping learners in their writing of German in and outside of the classroom. For that purpose, the author has been developing Internet Writing Help Devices for Japanese Learners of German. These devices should offer learners help on the following six phases: 1. Online in-house typing software (on the level of computer literacy) 2. Translation exercises of Japanese sentences into German with an automatic correction program, named Satto-Eisaku (on the level of making sentences from idioms) 3. Grammar exercises through sentence transformation (for actively applying grammar rules in writing sentences) 4. Bilingual database of abundant German and Japanese illustrative sentences (online sentence-dictionary) (for further information, see: Iwasaki & Yoshida 2004) 5. German writing help center (on the level of making a good text from sentences) 6. An electronic bulletin board as a means of making public the learning processes (motivating) (for further information, see: Iwasaki 2000) We will bring the plan to completion especially by combining the above referred aspects in an integrated and more user-friendly interface, and we will collect experiences through using practices in German courses so that in the near future we will be able to offer some kind of online German writing course fully on CmC (Computer-mediated Communication) bases
New Improvements in Hiroshima University's On-line German Grammar Exercise-Generating System
No full textThe author and his colleagues, Takako Yoshimitsu and Axel Harting, have been developing an online German grammar exercise-generating system utilizing an exercise database for Japanese learners of German, called DGSG, (Deutsche Grammatikübungen selbst gestrickt!)
The first version of the DGSG and these details were reported in Iwasaki (2009, 2011). But the developing concept of the DGSG in the early stages, namely “a wide use self-learning system which should be independent of any particular German classes and educational facilities" has meanwhile changed into a “self-learning system also suitable for blended learning in German classes in Japanese universities." And, according to the new concept, in the past year and a half a new type of account, “teacher account", was introduced. The function of the DGSG in learning management was also expanded for the sake of instructors who teach German in their classes.
This article reports on the characteristics of the new improvements in the DGSG, and the results of questionnaires filled out by the test users of the DGSG in German classes at Hiroshima University in 2011 and 2012. The new improvements in the system are partly based on those student desires and needs
El humor en los tiempos del boom (Estudios)
No full textThe author creates a “genealogy” of humor in the boom period of Latin American literature during the 60’s of the last century. He examines the attitudes related to the same which initially were respected by authors such as Mario Vargas Llosa and García Márquez, and he contrasts them with those sustained and maintained over the years by writers such as Julio Cortázar, Guillermo Cabrera Infante, Carlos Fuentes and the Chilean Jose Donoso. Iwasaki’s reflections seek to establish humor’s reasons for being, from its destabilizing condition, by differentiating it from joke and paradox, as well as the “conversion” process that some novelists such as Vargas Llosa would assume by recognizing their irreverent condition, capable of more effectively stripping those areas of reality that certain expressive strategies, while solemn, did not do so effectively. The author also considers the work of authors such as Manuel Puig and Jorge Ibargüengoitia, who knew how to turn humor into more than a mere rhetorical boast.El autor traza una “genealogía” del humor en los tiempos del boom de la literatura latinoamericana de los 60 del siglo pasado.

Las reflexiones de Iwasaki buscan establecer las razones de ser, desde su condición desestabilizadora, del humor, al diferenciarlo del chiste y la paradoja, así como el proceso de “conversión” que algunos novelistas como Vargas Llosa asumirán al reconocer su condición desacralizadora, capaz de desnudar de manera más efectiva aquellas zonas de la realidad que ciertas estrategias expresivas, en tanto solemnes, no llegaron a hacerlo de manera tan efectiva.
