In the class of Prof. Lakshmanan, who is specialized in linguistics and literature, I performed bilingual Tanka reading of three pieces from "Manyo-shu" and some contemporary Tanka with the theme of Africa. I was glad all students listened to my presentation eagerly.

Maybe I am able to see Prof. Lakshmanan again in India when I visit there to participate in World haiku Utsav this autumn!
