Andrew Bernstein, professor of Japanese history, is the
author of a translation of D.T. Suzuki's work on Emanuel
Swedenborg and is currently writing about the modernization
of death practices in Japan since the mid-nineteenth
century. His research interests are eclectic but tend to
pivot on the basic question, "What makes the modern world
'modern'?" Born and raised in New York, Andrew attended
Amherst College and earned his Ph.D. at Columbia University.
Before entering graduate school, he also worked for several
years in Tokyo as a correspondent for a financial news
wire.
