Theodore de Bary; during this period, he also did research at Kyoto University for eighteen months (December 1976-May 1978) where he studied with Takeuchi Minoru. He has published extensively in the field of Sino-Japanese relations, and maintains a lively interest in the field of translation, as well as amateur interest in Talmud.

He was a visiting scholar at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Paris (June 2024).
