Professor Yoshiyuki Muroi is a distinguished faculty member at Waseda University's School of Political Science and Economics, where he has served as Professor since 1999. He also holds affiliations with the School of Humanities and Social Sciences and the Graduate School of Letters, Arts and Sciences, along with the Global Education Center. His academic career spans over three decades, having previously served as Associate Professor at both Waseda University (1997-1999) and Hokkaido University (1991-1997). Professor Muroi earned his Master of Arts from Waseda University's Graduate School, Division of Letters. His educational background includes undergraduate studies in the Faculty of Literature at Waseda University, completed in 1981. Muroi's research focuses on German Linguistics with specialization in Cognitive Semantics and German-Japanese contrastive analysis. His work particularly examines psychological adjectives, semantic construction, and syntactic structures across German and Japanese languages. He has made significant contributions to understanding how emotional expressions and state descriptions function differently across these linguistic systems, with particular attention to thetic-categorical distinctions and subject salience. His publication record reveals consistent scholarly output with a clear trajectory toward increasingly sophisticated contrastive analysis between German and Japanese linguistic structures. The most recent works demonstrate a mature research program examining psychological adjectives through multiple theoretical frameworks including semantic construction, syntactic roles, and cross-linguistic comparison. His research shows particular strength in connecting theoretical linguistic concepts with practical language education applications. Professor Muroi has secured multiple competitive research grants from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, including projects on German-Japanese contrastive investigation of psychadjectives (2015-2018) and building grammatical theory on relativized subjecthood (2018-2022). His collaborative research projects often involve interdisciplinary teams, demonstrating his ability to work across institutional boundaries. He has also supervised research on language learning settings and the development of learner language by Japanese students of German. As an active academic citizen, Muroi has served in leadership roles including President of the Japanische Gesellschaft für Germanistik (2011-2013) and board member for multiple German studies organizations in Japan. His current teaching responsibilities for 2025 include German Linguistics seminars, interdisciplinary courses, and graduation thesis supervision across multiple schools within Waseda University.
