Thank you opening my thread. My name is Miki. We watched the video about other culture Christmas, but I couldn’t understand it much, so I’ll introduce different Christmas and New Year of Japan and others, and ways to spend time in this Christmas for me. In addition to, I’ll introduce Holiday.
In Japan, we spend Christmas with love and friends, but the Christian country spends with family. Why are they different? I examined it, but there are no ideas. It is said the origin is 1549. Francisco de Xavier(フランシスコ・デ・ザビエル) brought Catholic with Christmas. My thought is maybe media and music made it. Our longing for other culture made our Christmas, I think. But you know Christian is not it. Christmas is religion for them.
New Year doesn’t have difference of Japan and others much as well. In others, it is almost party, but our New Year relates rite(祭祀) a little. In Japan, Hatsumoude(初詣) appears in 1885, but it made for commerce a little. Almost all of Japanese pray for God or Buddha, but it is performance to them. My conclusion of this topic is not difference among them.
In winter vacation, I’ll go to Spain. From this class, I can study how do native people celebrate them. I’ll model on them.
Finally, I’ll introduce Holiday. Almost all of Japan longing for the white race, so Japan imitates their culture in the future. But I think Japan doesn’t make holiday. In our country, holiday concern with our culture. Recently, The Mountain day was made, but it concern with our worship of mountain. Our ancestors worship everything has God. It is said yaoyorozunokami(八百万の神). The culture like it is factor if holiday is made, I think.
How do you spend this winter vacation? If you read my thread, please tell me your plan. And tell me your impression about my thread.
Have a nice vacation! Thank you
Best regards
Miki
