Monumenta Nipponica is a semi-annual academic journal of Japanese studies. Published by Sophia University (Tokyo), it is one of the oldest English-language academic journals in the field of Asian studies, being founded in 1938.[1] Although the journal originally published articles in several languages, such as French, German, Spanish, and Italian, the journal has been published solely in English since early 1963.[2] A series of 75 monographs were also published until 1986 under the Monumenta Nipponica name.[3]

A symposium was held at Sophia University on October 6, 2018, to commemorate the 80-year anniversary of Monumenta Nipponica's founding. Videos of the symposium are available on YouTube.[4] In 2020, Sophia University published a special issue commemorating Monumenta Nipponica's 80-year founding, showcasing the people who made the journal happen and noteworthy historical events.[5]
