[quote=Sangetsu;816838]The Japanese are definitely aware of their culture, and they go to great lengths teaching cultural studies in the classroom (and elsewhere). Even in my classes the students thank me after each lesson and bow in their seats. It shouldn't be any surprise that these cultural traits still run strong in university students.
I think its great that the culture is taught after all its a magnificent history to be proud of. I heard a programme on BBC radio this morning It is a programme about the hundred objects that made the world-- fascinating indeed. This object was a Japanese burnished mirror. I will listen again to the programme but it was fascinating and I will tell you later
