- Dear Dr. Kazuyo Yamane,
My name is Ayelet Zohar, and I am a researcher specialising in Japanese visual culture. I have recently returned to Israel after a decade in the UK and the US, and I am currently working on a series of lectures/ a conference at the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem, where I am trying to bring to Israeli academics some experiences from Asia (Japan and China mainly) that may be relevant to Israeli audiences. I have found your name on this discussion group, and I am contacting you today to find out if you may be interested in presenting the Peace Museum of Hiroshima to Israeli audience. I hope you will find interest in this conference. Dates are only preliminary, but will take place during 2011.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Kind regards,
Ayelet Zohar, PhD

- It is a nice surprise to see your comment here. I've just written to you that I presented a paper on Japanese peace pioneers who worked for peace and reconciliation at Peace History Conference held in London. It will be available at the website of Movement for the Abolition of War. But if you'd like to read it, I can send a file.
