A Comparative Study of American Puritanism and Modern Japanese Moralist Writers with Special Reference to Gender

仙谷英代在《美国清教主义与日本现代道德主义作家的性别比较研究》的题目下，做了以下几方面的研究：首先，将赫尔曼·梅尔维尔的《白鲸》翻译成日文，对翻译作了介绍，并编写了梅尔维尔生平年表。其次，梅尔维尔的长诗《Clarel》的介绍已经出版，日文翻译由世学院的Suyama教授完成。举行了两次对话。一个是在仙谷和Suyama之间，另一个是在近基大学的仙谷和大泉之间。撰写了题为《为翻译道歉》的文章，将于2001年5月发表。这是关于“翻译是什么，应该是什么”的问题。还有一篇关于美国文学史的小文章，题目是“什么是VOA?””。在马萨诸塞州的史密斯学院，举办了三场讲座，第一场是“基督教理想与日本思想家：内村Kanzou、白洲Masamune和小林秀夫”，第二场是“明治日本作家：夏目漱石、通口一友、小栗花友和德田书成”，第三场是“用日语捕猎白鲸”。

Under the title "A Comparative Study of American Puritanism and Modern Japanese Moralist Writers with Special Reference to Gender" several kinds of research have been made by Hideyo Sengoku : firstly, Herman Melville's Moby-Dick has been translated into Japanese, an introduction to the translation written, and chronology of Melville's life composed. Secondly, an introduction to the Melville's longer poem Clarel was published with its Japanese translation completed by Professor Suyama at Sei-gakuin College. Two dialogues were held. The one is between Sengoku and Suyama, the other between Sngoku and Okuizumi at Kinki University. An essay titled "An apology for Trasnlation" was written and will be published in May, 2001. This is on the problem "what translation is and should be". A small essay was also written on the literary history of the U.S.titled "What was VOA? ". At Smith College, Massachusetts, three lectures were held, the first is "Christian Ideals and Japanese Thinkers : Uchimura Kanzou, Masamune Hakuchou, and Kobayasi Hideo", the second "Writers of Meiji Japan : Natsume Souseki, Higuchi Ichiyou, Oguri Huuyou, and Tokuda Shuusei" and the third "Hunting the White Whale in Japanese".
