Abstract:

Abstract This article analyzes a few selected case studies from different religious traditions in contemporary Japan to illustrate, first, the active role played by religion in Japan in the creation of hybrid forms and, secondly, the potentiality in two instances to promote cultural chauvinism. The topics explored here are Japanese Buddhism and the issue of human rights, Shintō’s self-representation as a ‘religion of the forest,’ and Kōfuku no Kagaku’s adoption of Theosophical themes. The discourse of human rights found in traditions such as Jōdo Shinshū, Jōdoshū, and Sōtōshū shows how this we

Abstract:

In light of the fact that Far-eastern martial arts have to be viewed as an inseparable part of the cultural traditions of China and Japan, their aesthetic character is tied to traditional cultural concepts which dominate these cultures, such as the concept of the unity of opposites, better known as yin and yang; the concept of the Road (the Tao) as a symbol of continuing self-improvement; the concept of Chi or Qui energy which permeates the cosmos as well as individual beings, etc. These concepts owe their existence and development first and foremost to the religious and philosophical systems

Abstract:

In Turkey, Japan has often been perceived as an industrial country that developed economically while keeping to its traditions. This perception has been especially strong among Islamists and conservatives who have been critical of the process of Westernization since the nineteenth century. In their view, Turkey understood modernity as imitation of Western culture but failed to industrialize. Japan, on the other hand, proved that it was possible to modernize while preserving one's tradition, religion, and culture. Hence, according to this analysis, Japan's successful transition from agrarian to

Abstract:

Buddhism is Japan’s second largest religion, right behind Shinto. It includes multiple traditions and movements, but in Japan, it was domesticated as Zen Buddhism. Buddhism also exists in China, and it is called Chen there. Zen Buddhism has had an impact on Japanese tradition, culture and society as a whole. For example, through Buddhism, samurais despised the fear of death and developed courage, mercy, courtesy, truthfulness and honesty, honour, loyalty and self-control. Then, Zen Buddhism has had a major influence on sports, and this is reflected in martial arts (sports and skills). It is al

A big part of the drive to increase tourist numbers has been the government led Cool Japan campaign.

Navigating a complex web of nascent modern genres and writing styles, Japan's literary tradition, and international mountain literature, Usui deployed kikōbun (travel writing) to both align himself with and differentiate himself from existing traditions and trends.

All these spheres represent a certain projection of historical and cultural processes in the region.

Abstract “Onoto Watanna,” the pseudo-Japanese penname of the mixed-race Chinese Winnifred Eaton, acts as a “Bad Grandma” of the Asian North American literary tradition. Building upon Susan Koshy’s and Lisa Lowe’s accounts of the Asian American novel, I approach Watanna’s Miss Numè of Japan (1899) as the “first Asian American novel” representative of an accommodationist, rather than resistant, tendency “Asian American” representation that anticipates the aggregate and disaggregate problems and possibilities of that political formation in US liberal democracy.

Abstract:

The article considers the Middle Ages as a category of historical typology of culture. It is shown that this category has a negative content, but it is used to designate a key period in the history of European culture. However, its typological features are poorly defined; the feudal nature of production relations cannot be such a sign, since this closes the prospect of using the category of the Middle Ages to describe non-European cultures. The article proposes a substantiation of the key properties of the culture of the medieval type. Its most important features are synthetic, rationalization

AbstractIn the perspective of the General Theory of Fighting Arts, an analysis of socio-cultural factors that determine the opposition of the role of a teacher of martial arts (Jap. sensei) to the role of a sports trainers was undertaken. The structural cultural context, cultural patterns, and social institutions resulting from divergent goals were taken into account. The roles of teachers and trainers result from these conditions. The existence of the separate roles of the master-teacher in martial arts and the sports trainer was established. These roles manifest themselves in different relat

Abstract:

The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of the Jesuit architecture of the XVI–XVIII centuries in three key Asian regions – Japan, Goa and Macau. The study examines the influence of the European architectural tradition based on the "Instructions" of Carlo Borromeo and the principles of the Jesuit Baroque on the development of religious buildings in conditions of socio-cultural and geopolitical diversity. The novelty of the work lies in the comparative analysis of the Jesuit architecture of Japan, Goa and Macau, which allows us to identify patterns of synthesis of the European Baroque t

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to theorize broadly about how cultural encounters between Asian Buddhists and European Christians spurred various efforts to demarcate, systematize, and stabilize religious traditions. It focuses on the dynamics seen in Buddhist responses to contact situations from the sixteenth century onwards in Sri Lanka, Cambodia, and Japan in order to map out some patterns of interaction among these communities. Theories of cultural imitation and independence do not suffice to theorize interreligious encounters in these cases. Using select examples, this paper will contend that As

Abstract:

In Akutagawa Ryūnosuke’s series of Christian-themed works, known as “Kirishitanmono”, the conflicts between Buddhism and Christianity can be seen everywhere. Some Chinese scholars believed that Akutagawa broke down under the burden of the unbelievable speed of westernization in modern Japan because he was closer to the Japanese tradition. The aim of this paper is to revise the problem of this statement. By sorting out the history of both Buddhism and Christianity and using ‘perspective’ stated by Kojin Karatani, it can be revealed that this belief is actually a conceptual misalignment under th

The article analyzes Nishida’s views on culture that are an independent part of his original philosophical theory. Religion, art, morality, science are the ideal forms of being in the historical world. The work of a scientist or artist is a manifestation of the formative activity of a person.

Abstract:

This paper explores the evolving gender roles and cultural identities of temple wives in Japanese Buddhism, focusing on the transition “between tradition and transformation” in the Jōdu Shinshū Sect. Unlike traditional Buddhist practices that prohibit clerical marriage, Japan allows monks to marry, making the role of temple wives unique. Historically, temple wives were responsible for domestic duties and supporting their husbands’ religious work, often within a patriarchal structure. This study examines how these roles have changed from older to newer generations, emphasizing shifts in gender

This approach helps particularly clear up the limits and framework of westernization specifying and making more precise the typology of modernization. In applying the approach to the analysis of Japanese modernization, the author brings about a hypothesis concerning mechanisms of cultural adaptation. These mechanisms contributed to reproduce some segments of Western pattern of modernization without destroying indigenous form of ratio
