It asks the questions what superstitions are generally known to Japanese people and if they have any affects on their behavior and daily lives. The thesis is divided into four main chapters. The introduction examines what is normally considered to be superstitious beliefs as well as Japanese superstition in general. The second chapter handles the methodology of the survey written and distributed by the author. Third chapter is on the background research and analysis which is divided into smaller chapters each covering different categories of superstitions that can be found in Japan. Superstitions related to childhood, death and funerals, lucky charms like omamori and maneki neko and various lucky days and years especially yakudoshi and hinoeuma are closely examined. The fourth and last chapter contains the conclusion and discussion which covers briefly the results of the survey and what other things might be of interest to investigate further.

    Mathematics Phobia: Causes, Symptoms and Ways

    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 8 August 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 MATHEMATICS PHOBIA: CAUSES, SYMPTOMS AND WAYS TO OVERCOME Rajendra Kunwar Reader, Mathematics Education Faculty of Education Tribhuvan University Mahendra Ratna Multiple Campus, Ilam, Nepal Abstract: The article seeks to investigate the disposition of mathematics phobia. It studies about the fear of mathematics, its causes, symptoms and ways to overcome regarding the school level students. Out of the root causes of mathematics phobia, curriculum structure, schools facilities, instructional techniques, teachers’ teaching performance, use of tools and technology and evaluation system are the main. In the same way, lack of proper incentives for mathematics teachers and the negative perception of the students and teachers about mathematics are also the important causes. The study has revealed that mathematics phobia exists among students, which are characterized into negative perception of the students towards mathematics and others too. The main causes of mathematics phobia include test and examination, individuals, teachers, parents, peers and the nature of mathematics. The only ways to overcome mathematics phobia, is the intensive efforts made by all the stakeholders. Keywords: Mathematics, Fear, Phobia, Arithmophobia, Numerophobia 1. INTRODUCTION Mathematics is a universal, utilitarian subject that is needed for everyone in their life. It is an integral part of the curriculum throughout the countries in the world. It is an interdisciplinary language and tool that is considered as one of the fundamentals in the formal educational system (Roy, 2011). He further states that mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space and change. It is as a human endeavor encompasses the mathematics of measurement time, distance and different system of distance measurement that developed throughout the world.

    Specters of Modernity: “Supernatural Japan” and the Cosmopolitan Gothic

    Specters of Modernity: “Supernatural Japan” and the Cosmopolitan Gothic By Michael Joseph Blouin A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY American Studies 2012 ABSTRACT SPECTERS OF MODERNITY: “SUPERNATURAL JAPAN” AND THE COSMOPOLITAN GOTHIC By Michael Joseph Blouin Value of Research Specialization: From the mid-19th century until today, “Japan” has frequently been imagined in Western discourse as a supernatural entity; at the same time, Gothic tales from each nation have been exchanged, consumed, and adapted. By better understanding this phenomenon, in works ranging from the prose of Lafcadio Hearn and Winnifred Eaton to the films of Shimizu Takashi, one can better understand the cultural relationship between the two countries as well as the layers of complexity that accompany constructions of “foreignness.” Argument of Dissertation: Cosmopolitanism, following Kant, is often articulated through concepts of unity and rationality. I argue that the cultural exchange between the United States and Japan in the last century suggests a different kind of cosmopolitanism, one that instead uses Gothic tropes to interrogate the Self as it projects its own hidden “foreignness” onto distant lands. This argument builds upon theories of Julia Kristeva, Paul Ricouer, and Jean Baudrillard that argue for “radical alterity.” In the macabre and spectral visions of one another, the United States and Japan glimpse the excesses within their modernization. Contribution of Dissertation: My dissertation expands and changes out current understanding of the U.S.-Japan cultural relationship, specifically in literature and film. It attempts to challenge a dominant view that “Japan” has served solely as the Other in Western thought and rather establishes the manner in which authors and filmmakers have used this theme as an opportunity to subvert the status quo and interrogate modernity’s excess.

  • Adam Mclean's Study Course on the Artwork and Symbolism of Modern Tarot

    Adam Mclean's Study Course on the Artwork and Symbolism of Modern Tarot

    Adam McLean's Study Course on the artwork and symbolism of modern tarot Lesson 17 : Regional tarots - Japanese Most Japanese Tarots seem to have been intended for a Japanese audience rather than being distributed to the wider world and consequently many are unknown to American and European tarot enthusiasts, being difficult to collect. The earliest Japanese tarot I have been able to find is a Tarot of Marseilles style deck published by Keishobou in 1973, with the artwork by Gaichi Muramatsu. In 1974 a black and white pen drawn tarot called the Japanese Egyptian was issued by Futami Shobo in Tokyo. This to some extent drew upon the Falconnier/Wegener late 19th century tarot designs which had inspired a long line of Egyptian tarots. The Minor arcana of this Japanese 78 deck are based on the emblematic forms in the Rider-Waite deck but here ‘Egyptianised’. This was reprinted in 1980 and 2003 in an alternative version, photo-reversed, as white on black Another early deck is the Renaissance Style Tarot published in 1978, the Magician of which is shown opposite. This was printed in black and white, though the original artwork (by an uncredited artist) appears to be in watercolours. There was also the Nature Tarot printed in 1980 which we looked at in the lesson on Round Tarots. It is likely that Tarot was originally seen by the Japanese as an entirely European tradition which, though it fascinated them, the artists did not immediately try and relocate tarot imagery within Japanese cultural forms. Thus many of the decks produced in the 1980’s were tribute decks, echoing the European and American tarot images that they had been exposed to.
