132. The World History Of Male Love - Japan Article on samurai homosexuality and other forms of japanese gay culture and history. http://www.androphile.org/preview/Culture/Japan/japan.htm

oshiro Mifune, the popular actor famed for his characterizations of quick-witted, taciturn samurai, never uttered a word about it. Akira Kurosawa, the well-known movie director, kept inscrutably mum. Not one of the many hundreds of samurai movies made in the past century even as much as hinted at it nanshoku, the The samurai often called it bi-do, Known also as wakashudo, highest lord. Indeed it has been said that it would never have been asked of a daimyo, In its key aspects, wakashudo (often abbreviated to shudo and synonymous with nanshoku, classical Greece . Like pederasty it was a relationship between an adult man and an adolescent male. Like it, it ended or transformed into platonic friendship as the youth came of age. Like pederasty, it was a pedagogic relationship fired by the energy of mutual erotic attraction. And in like fashion, it was not exclusive of the love of women. Samurai married, though usually later in life, just as the Greek warriors did. The Japanese as well as the Greeks equated the love between a man and a beardless youth with all that was best in human nature, seeing it at times as the path to such ideals, and at other times as the goal itself. Simonides, in a famous drinking song from the fifth century

136. Japanese Incense Educational webpage on the history and evolution of japanese incense ceremonies and culture. http://www.japanese-incense.com/

Japanese Incense The Journey of Japanese Incense It begins under the flower of peace, before the fall of the plum blossoms, before monks burning incense in Japanese temples, before the rising scents from scented kimono sleeves mixed with the fragrant incense of natural pine, cedar, lavender, and the flowers of the sun. The art of Japanese incense making has long been a tribute to nature itself. One of the great Awaseko of early Japan was called "Baika" which is Japanese for plum. Perhaps one way to look at the connection formed between nature, incense, and humanity is through poetry. . . I breathe in the cool incense smoke from the metal brazier, While thinking about a poem for my dear friend Lu Wa. My sandalwood-hearted companion spits out plum blossoms of smoke, Looking like the cloudy fog of the other world. Perhaps it's the soul of my friend the old mountain man In the smoke's dense patterns? - Kan Po, in memoriam (undated) Surely the connection between poetry and incense comes from the connection of poetry and nature . . . If the maple leaves On Ogura mountain Could only have hearts

139. Japanese Rice Culture Essay on ancient rituals and peasant society practices that became part of japanese traditional culture and still influence present day rural society. http://home.worldcom.ch/~negenter/473bTx_E01.html

JAPANESE RICE CULTURE The Misunderstood Philosophy of the Agrarian Past by Nold Egenter Rice culture? Do we mean culture, or merely cultivation? Rice, once a luxury for the few, is today Japan's staple food, the daily source of energy for over a hundred million people. The rice economy has become important. But because rice in Japan was long the mark of fine living, it has developed an aesthetic aura. Rice as an expression of refined eating habits? The definition would be too narrow. Those who venerate the arts of the steaming dish often forget that rice is also a plant. It has to be tended and cared for, which to the farmer means toil and travail. Yet here again there is an element of culture, embodied this time in coarse cloths, simple tools, unadorned vessels, such as are exhibited in the Museum of Japanese Folk Art (Nihon Mingeikan) in Tokyo. Many people find these things beautiful because they stand for the plain, genuine values of a peasant culture. Straw Culture The rice plant also produces green foliage which, when dry, becomes straw, Japanese wara.
