For the establishment of the critical/descriptive language for the study of Shakespeare performance in Asia.

这项研究项目的主要目的是为研究亚洲莎士比亚的表演建立一种批评/描述语言。项目负责人南美与中国、印度、韩国、马来西亚、菲律宾、新加坡、台湾等亚洲其他国家的学者合作，为亚洲莎士比亚批评性讨论奠定了基础。项目负责人为Routledge(美国)共同编辑了一本关于这一主题的论文集，还为剑桥大学出版社和其他学术期刊发表了文章。他还在英国、中国、台湾和韩国的国际会议上阅读论文。作为一名总编辑，他正在准备一本5卷的莎士比亚亚洲改编选集，这本选集不仅将为国际莎士比亚学者提供不可或缺的资源，还将为批评莎士比亚在亚洲的表演奠定基础。

The principal purpose of this research project was to establish a critical/description language for the study of Shakespearean performances in Asia. Minami, the project leader, has collaborated with scholars from other Asian countries such as China, India, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, so as to establish a foundation for the critical discussion on Shakespeares in Asia. The project leader co-edited a collection of essays on the topic for Routledge (US) and also published articles for Cambridge University Press and other academic journals. He also read papers at international conferences in the UK, China, Taiwan and Korea. He is now preparing a 5-volume anthology of Shakespearean adaptation in Asia as a general editor, and this anthology will not only provide indispensable resource for international Shakespearean scholars but serve to establish the basics for critical discussion of Shakespearean performances in Asia.
