  • Ryokan Sono Alberghi in Stile Giapponese
    Naima-Is-Online RRYYOOKKAANN I ryokan sono alberghi in stile giapponese. Al loro interno, si applicano le stesse norme generali di comportamento delle abitazioni in stile tradizionale e dei templi e santuari, quindi parte delle indicazioni contenute in questo documento potranno tornarvi utili anche in caso decideste di non soggiornare in ryokan. Vediamo di seguito i principali aspetti della vita quotidiana in un ambiente tradizionale giapponese. LA STANZA GIAPPONESE: WASHITSU Una caratteristica peculiare delle stanze in tatami (pavimenti in paglia intrecciata) è la loro doppia valenza: esse si trasformano da stanza da giorno a camera da letto in un attimo. Di giorno, infatti, nella stanza c'è solo il tavolo basso con i cuscini su cui sedersi, mentre la sera la cameriera sposta il tavolo e stende i futon (materassi) per terra, preparandoli per la notte. Il mattino, lasciata libera la stanza, la cameriera stende i futon a prendere aria prima di riporli nell'armadio e prepara il tavolo in centro alla stanza. Questo ciclo si ripete ogni giorno. In alcuni ryokan, la stanza viene sempre lasciata allestita a notte. Se si soggiorna in un minshuku, ryokan a conduzione familiare, e' probabile che siano gli stessi ospiti a doversi preparare il futon. Nelle stanze vengono serviti tè verde e dolcetti ogni giorno. www.naima-is-online.it di Alessia Ravelli Pag. 1 Naima-Is-Online Le donne siedono sui cuscini inginocchiate, o al massimo inginocchiate con le gambe messe leggermente di traverso, mentre gli uomini possono sedere inginocchiati o a gambe incrociate. Questa regola vale sempre quando si è sui tatami: al ristorante, nella camera del ryokan, al tempio, ecc.

  • The Symbol of the Dragon and Ways to Shape Cultural Identities in Institute Working Vietnam and Japan Paper Series
    2015 - HARVARD-YENCHING THE SYMBOL OF THE DRAGON AND WAYS TO SHAPE CULTURAL IDENTITIES IN INSTITUTE WORKING VIETNAM AND JAPAN PAPER SERIES Nguyen Ngoc Tho | University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University – Ho Chi Minh City THE SYMBOL OF THE DRAGON AND WAYS TO SHAPE 1 CULTURAL IDENTITIES IN VIETNAM AND JAPAN Nguyen Ngoc Tho University of Social Sciences and Humanities Vietnam National University – Ho Chi Minh City Abstract Vietnam, a member of the ASEAN community, and Japan have been sharing Han- Chinese cultural ideology (Confucianism, Mahayana Buddhism etc.) and pre-modern history; therefore, a great number of common values could be found among the diverse differences. As a paddy-rice agricultural state of Southeast Asia, Vietnam has localized Confucianism and absorbed it into Southeast Asian culture. Therefore, Vietnamese Confucianism has been decentralized and horizontalized after being introduced and accepted. Beside the local uniqueness of Shintoism, Japan has shared Confucianism, the Indian-originated Mahayana Buddhism and other East Asian philosophies; therefore, both Confucian and Buddhist philosophies should be wisely laid as a common channel for cultural exchange between Japan and Vietnam. This semiotic research aims to investigate and generalize the symbol of dragons in Vietnam and Japan, looking at their Confucian and Buddhist absorption and separate impacts in each culture, from which the common and different values through the symbolic significances of the dragons are obviously generalized. The comparative study of Vietnamese and Japanese dragons can be enlarged as a study of East Asian dragons and the Southeast Asian legendary naga snake/dragon in a broader sense. The current and future political, economic and cultural exchanges between Japan and Vietnam could be sped up by applying a starting point at these commonalities.

Japanese culture stretches back millennia, yet has created some of the latest modern technology and trends. Japan is a study in contrasts and contradictions; in the middle of a modern skyscraper you might discover a sliding wooden door which leads to a traditional chamber with tatami mats, calligraphy, and tea ceremony. These juxtapositions mean you may often be surprised and rarely bored by your travels in Japan. Voyagers will have the opportunity to experience Japanese hospitality first-hand by participating in a formal tea ceremony, visiting with a family in their home in Yokohama or staying overnight at a traditional ryokan. Japan has one of the world's best transport systems, which makes getting around convenient, especially by train. It should be noted, however, that travel in Japan is much more expensive when compared to other Asian countries. Japan is famous for its gardens, known for its unique aesthetics both in landscape gardens and Zen rock/sand gardens. Rock and sand gardens can typically be found in temples, specifically those of Zen Buddhism. Buddhist and Shinto sites are among the most common religious sites, sure to leave one in awe. From Yokohama: Nature lovers will bask in the splendor of Japan’s iconic Mount Fuji and the Silver Frost Festival.
