Sato, Megumi
Faculty of Letters German Literature Associate Professor
Research Overview
I became a researcher out of a fascination with linguistic history, the study of how language is used to reveal society and human relationships at different times throughout history. For example, I am currently researching Mozart's letters and Beethoven's handwritten notebooks to reconstruct their personal relationships and society from linguistic data written some 200 years ago.
