I sent out the following mail in early August, but due to the academic vacation, it seems that many of you did not receive it properly.
Regarding the Conference Proceeding in CD "Locations of Spirituality" is one of Mino's works which is definitely worth looking into. Most of you probably once asked "Why did he come to be interested in Australian Aborigines?" and I think his piece in this CD, "Re-enchantment of History: Writing Aboriginal Spiritualities" is his sincere answer to that question. I assume his personal "spiritual experience" made him decide to have this conference.
Please consider to purchase this CD (US$10 including shipping and A$10 plus shipping). All the profit made from sale will be donated to ANU's Minoru Hokari Memorial Scholarship Fund. You can learn more details about this CD here. I appreciate your cooperation.

重要なお知らせを二つ含んだ下記メールを、8月初めに送信しましたが、大学が夏休み中で、メールが配信されなかったケースが多いようなので、再度送信させていただきます。
尚、Conference proceeding: "Locations of Spirituality"のCD（論文集）ですが、個人のスピリチュアルな経験を題材に書かれた収録論文はとても興味深い内容です。そして、保苅実の論文"Re-enchantment of History: Writing Aboriginal Spiritualities"は、「なぜ彼がオーストラリア・アボリジニに興味をもったのか」という誰もがもつ疑問に対して、おそらくこれが彼による一番誠実な回答なのではないかと、私は思います。ここに書かれてある彼の思想が、この成功を収めたコンファレンスの開催を想起させたともいえるのではないでしょうか。
どうか、CDの購入（一枚1000円送料込み）にご協力をお願いします。このCD販売による利益はすべてオーストラリア国立大学・保苅実記念小学基金に寄付されます。詳細は、こちらでご覧ください。
