JAPN 305: Intro Japanese Clture/Civ
This course introduces various aspects of Japanese culture, including history, geography, religion, government, politics, customs and traditions. After a broad historical overview beginning in prehistory, this course focuses on the Tokugawa period as the bedrock for understanding modern Japanese society as a mass society.
In this course we looked at the different eras that make up Japan's long and rich history. In about 12 weeks I was able to study more than 1400 years of history. Taking an approach like this is interesting because each we are given materials to read and the following week is during a different era. Each week I looked back to the readings to see how much life can change over time. The course itself was not difficult but the homework load was immense. I was doing fine in the beginning but after I missed one or two assignments everything started to crumble. This course helped developed my reading comprehension and presentational skills
This course is under MLO 2
