Course Description
The aim of this class is to provide a broad overview of Japan's traditional and
contemporary culture. During the first half of the course, we will look at the
manufacture of pottery, kabuki theatre, gagaku, matsuri (local festivals), folk
customs relating to the seasons, and other aspects of traditional culture. In the
latter half of the course we will tackle contemporary culture, with a focus on
anime and manga; we will also look at contemporary art, gyaru culture, and yankī
culture.
This course is intended to:
– Provide a broad overview of Japan's traditional and contemporary culture.
– Examine examples of collaboration between traditional and contemporary culture,
from Hatsune Miku and bunraku theater, to Louis Vuitton lacquerware.
