Extractions: Joi Jan 16, 2008 - 04:34 UTC I find that the Japanese, myself included, use the phrase, "Japan is the world's second largest GDP" as some sort of mantra to try to keep Japan relevant in a world that is exceedingly uninterested in Japan. I was talking to Oki Matsumoto, a good friend and the CEO of Monex about this. He told me about a talk he gave at Keio University about the increasing irrelevance of Japan and showed me the following slides which I post with permission. This first slide is the percentage of the world GDP of various countries in 2004 and projected in 2050. On the far left is the US at 38.3% in 2004 and a diminished but significant 20.3% in 2050. Japan however goes from 15.4% in 2004 to 4% in 2050. Still 2X that of Italy's projection, but not the mammoth we seem to think will will continue to be. The first yellow block is China and the second one is India. Clearly they are the big growth markets according to the predictions. You may say, well that's 2050. That's a long time from now.

Japan Japanese Culture Though the term Culture integrates a number of connotations, but commonly it denotes the manner a community lives in harmony with its traditions, the notions, the linguistic processes, or the way they dress. The Japanese culture is no exception to this. A meticulous observation demonstrates the immense influence of European, Asian, Chinese as well as North American Culture. As a consequence Japanese culture is unique as well as so distinguishing from the other Asian ethnicity and cultures. An extensive array of components has composed the culture of Japan . This array includes Japanese Language, Japanese Music, Japanese Costume and Clothing, Japanese Performing Arts, Japanese Religions, Japanese Customs, Japanese Folklore, Japanese Sculpture, Japanese Cuisine in addition to Japanese Literature. Besides that, Geisha, Kabuki Theatre, Ikebana are also regarded as significant part of Japanese Cultural Heritage . Brief descriptions of a few of the Japanese cultural manifestations are as following: Japanese Painting: The Japanese painting is a very popular form of art celebrated through out the country. The outstanding procedure of the painting is borrowed from continental regions.

REN The Mechanism Of Linking In Japanese Culture
Text of a talk given by Yuko Tanaka, of Hosei University in Tokyo, in 1993 at the Nissan Institute, Oxford University. Discusses the concept of linking, with special emphasis on linked poetry of Basho.

Extractions: REN The mechanism of linking in Japanese culture Yuko Tanaka Hosei University in Tokyo Read in 1993 at Nissan Institute, Oxford University. Introduction Today, I would like to talk about ren . I have been thinking about and doing research on culture in the Edo period(1603 to 1867) in Japan with reference to this term. Ren means "to connect" "to link" and "to gather together", and it refers to a basic mechanism by which a process emerges from the interaction of words, verses or stanzas, sentences, objects, and people in the culture of Japan especially in the Edo period. We can find various examples of ren in the Edo period, a lot of ren groups or the ren of haikai In today's lecture I am going to talk about ren using a number of themes. Firstly is a short explanation of haikai with typical examples ,then the origin and the history of linked poetry, followed by linked themes in a few examples of prose; fourthly linked images in paintings, then renju , which means linked people supporting ren , and finally za which means the place of ren Linked poetry As you know waka is a traditional type of Japanese poetry which has 5-7-5-7-7 syllables, and

This inspiration for this article happened almost by accident. On a TheologyWeb discussion thread I wanted to illustrate to a debate partner how honor was valued in the ancient Biblical world. Knowing that honor was likewise valued in modern Japanese culture the same way (in contrast to how it is viewed in modern American culture) I searched for and found an invaluable article apparently by one Phil VanAuken at Baylor University. (It is no longer available online, but used to be.) In looking over VanAuken's work I realized that some of the explanations he gave of Japanese custom and culture match very closely the sort we have given here in explaining Biblical passages. Since certain Skeptics seem inclined to imply that we just make up all of this stuff, and that social studies scholars of the Bible (the Context Group) are just doing the same, VanAuken's article looked to be something I could use profitably to draw some parallels quench those denials.
