JOB #1:\u00a0 Adjunct instructor for Japanese Aesthetics Course<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marlboro College<\/strong><\/a>, a liberal arts institution<\/span> of 330 students and 39 faculty, invites applications for an adjunct instructor<\/strong> to teach a course on Japanese aesthetics<\/span> during the spring term 2010. The course would serve as part of the academic preparation for a group of Marlboro students and faculty going to Japan<\/span> at the conclusion of the spring semester to pursue several research projects on performance, photography, poetry, and contemporary Buddhist practice.<\/p>\n

The course should address the theory of Japanese aesthetics as well as their expression in traditional and contemporary cultural forms across different media (dance, theater, literature, painting, photography, etc.). The course would be offered for two credits (rather than the usual four), and would likely meet only once per week.<\/p>\n
