ILAS Autumn Exchange Workshop: Buddhism in Japanese Culture
京都大学国際高等教育院附属国際学術言語教育センター課外プログラムでは、実戦で使える英語の運用能力の涵養に努めています。
Autumn Exchange Workshopでは、留学生との交流や共同作業を通じて自己啓発する機会を学生に提供しています。
初日の午前は、まず留学生と一緒に座禅を体験してもらい、そのあと京北までドライブしてかやぶきの里(雨天時はセミナーハウス直行で翌日再トライ)で昼食を取ります。
ワークショップはセミナーハウスで始めますが、グループ作業のテーマは、「仏教が日本文化にどのような影響を与えたか」です。芸術、ジェンダー、教育、神道などそれぞれの分野に分かれて調査し、発表してもらいます。単なる日常会話からもう一つステップアップして、一緒に調べ、発表する体験は、貴重なものとなるでしょう。また、留学を目指している学生には、英語で得た日本文化と仏教の知識が留学先できっと役立つことでしょう。
特別高い英語の能力は必要ありません。この機会に、自分のスキルアップを目指してみませんか。
In what ways has Buddhism influenced Japanese history and culture?
Apart from exploring this question through group investigation and discussion, this seminar will be combined with a Zazen (seated meditation) experience at Daitokuji, the most renowned Sohto monastery in Japan. Moreover, as the seminar venue is immediately located within the lush autumn forest and also a short visit is planned to Kayabuki no Sato, a village of old houses with their thatched roofs, this exchange workshop will provide ample occasion to refresh yourselves from your everyday studies.
