Congratulations to Toronto JET participant Stephanie Erica Chaves, winner of the Soseki International Essay Contest!
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the legendary author’s death (1867-1916), The Japan Foundation teamed up with the Asahi Shimbun, Ferris University and Iwanami Shoten to sponsor The Soseki International Essay Contest. Essays in Japanese of 2,000 characters or less on the theme “Soseki and I” were submitted by non-native speakers of Japanese from around the world.
