In this workshop we will share useful information about kanji instruction\, and think about what support we can give students.\nIn order to allow ample time for teachers to discuss their experiences and issues with kanji instruction\, we have made this a four-hour workshop. We hope to see all of you who wish to think more about what can be done with kanji instruction at the workshop. \nDate and Time：Sunday\, June 7th 2015\nWorkshop: 1:00pm – 5:30pm (Doors open at 12:30pm)\nLocation：The Japan Foundation\, Toronto\n131 Bloor Street West\, 2nd Floor of the Colonnade\, Toronto\, Ontario\nRegistration Fee：Free\nInstructor：Kaori Tanaka \nInstructor’s Introduction:\nKaori Tanaka has been the Japanese Language Planning Officer at The Japan Foundation\, Toronto since September 2013 and has extensive experience teaching Japanese full-time in Taiwan at Tainan YMCA\, Taichung YMCA\, and Dao Jiang Senior High School (Taipei) and working as a Japanese Language Specialist in Krakow\, Poland at Jagiellonian University.

SUMMARY:May Movies: The Wind Rises
DESCRIPTION:Hayao Miyazaki\, 2013\, 127 min.\nIn Japanese with English subtitles\nMiyazaki’s final film is a fictionalized biography of aeronautics engineer Jiro Horikoshi who\, too nearsighted to become a pilot\, dedicated his life to building the perfect flying machine. Episodes from Jiro’s life\, including the great earthquake of 1923\, his fateful romance with a young invalid\, and the beginning of WWII\, are interspersed with dream sequences in which he flies and converses with his hero\, the Italian aeronautical engineer Caproni\, and contemplates the dilemma of creating a thing of beauty which will ultimately be used for destructive purposes. \n“To see The Wind Rises is to simultaneously marvel at the work of a master and regret that this film is likely his last.”\n-Kenneth Turan\, L.A. Times \n“Miyazaki is at the peak of his visual craftsmanship here\, alternating lush\, boldly coloured rural vistas with epic\, crowded urban canvases\, soaring aerial perspectives and test flights both majestic and ill-fated.”\n-Scott Soundas\, Variety \nscreened in conjunction with The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness \nRegistration for this event is now closed. Thank you for your interest.

SUMMARY:TCAF presents: TATSUMI movie screening and tribute
DESCRIPTION:In memory of the pioneering gekiga manga artist Yoshihiro Tatsumi\, (June 10\, 1935 – March 7\, 2015)\, Toronto Comic Arts Festival and The Japan Foundation\, Toronto present a special screening of Tatsumi\, Eric Khoo’s 2011 animated film. Tatsumi\, a tribute to the life and work of Yoshihiro Tatsumi\, will be introduced by TCAF’s Christopher Butcher\, and other local friends of the artist. Mr. Tatsumi was an honoured guest at TCAF in 2009\, when he published his autobiographical manga\, A Drifting Life. \nTATSUMI celebrates the life and work of Japanese comics artist Yoshihiro Tatsumi—a manga pioneer who elevated the genre to a new level of creative expression and adult realism. A comics-crazed teenager\, Tatsumi began to get published and was able to support his poor family in postwar occupied Japan. He finds even greater inspiration after meeting his idol\, the famous Disney-esque animator Osamu Tezuka. But despite his success\, Tatsumi became dissatisfied with making whimsical children’s comics. In the late 1950s\, Tatsumi coined the term gekiga (dramatic pictures) and redefined the manga landscape with an alternative genre for adults. Realistic and disquieting\, his work began to grapple with the darker aspects of life in his rapidly changing country—with stories that are perverse\, shocking and darkly comic. A tribute to an artist who made comics cinematic\, filmmaker Eric Khoo’s (BE WITH ME) inventive animated drama brings Tatsumi’s memoir A Drifting Life and five of his classic stories to life. \nContains adult themes and images; not suitable for children. \n“A eye-popping visual treat and a journey into the creative spirit.” —Variety \n“A fascinating and ultimately moving tribute to a seminal comic artist’s dark\, disquieting but powerful works.”—Hollywood Reporter

SUMMARY:Poster Exhibition: Getting the Big Picture in B-Zero
DESCRIPTION:May 6 – June 30\, 2015\n The Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nIn 1953\, the Nissenbi (Japan Advertising Artists Club) Poster Competition set the entry format size as B1 (103 cm × 72.8 cm). This format quickly became the standard for posters in Japan. However\, for special occasions\, Japanese graphic designers took advantage of the larger horizon of the B-Zero size (103 cm × 145.6 cm). Designing in the B-Zero format is the most challenging and rewarding task for graphic designers. Exactly double the size of B1\, these expanded posters are designed to dazzle commuters at train and subway stations. \nIn addition to its function in advertising\, B-Zero is also used for artistic purposes\, with original posters created for display in exhibitions. At solo exhibitions of renowned designers\, B-Zero works are always the core attraction. \nB-Zero masterpieces from the collection of The Japan Foundation\, Toronto\, by such creators as Ikko Tanaka and Shin Matsunaga\, will occupy our walls\, with poster series by Kazumasa Nagai\, Tadanori Yokoo\, and Shigeo Fukuda joining this celebration of Japanese graphic design. \nB-Zero Exhibition Hours\n\n\n\n\n	Monday11:30 am - 7:00 pm EXTENDED HOURS\n\n\n	Tuesday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Wednesday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Thursday11:30 am - 7:00 pm EXTENDED HOURS\n\n\n	Friday11:30 am - 4:30 pm\n\n\n	Select Saturdaysnoon - 5:00 pmMay 9\, 30\nJune 13\, 20\, 27\n\n\n	CLOSEDOther Saturdays\, Sundays\nMay 18 (Victoria Day)

SUMMARY:Continuing Learning Japanese 19: Thornlea Secondary School Class Observation
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n  \n  \nContinuing Learning Japanese XIX \nCanadian Association for Japanese Language Education (Ontario Chapter)\nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nJapanese is taught at several secondary schools in Toronto and its surrounding areas. Yet\, it appears that teachers do not know much about the other institutions\, courses or programmes. This lack of understanding can sometimes be found even within the same institution. We believe that it is very important and necessary for teachers to know what their current students have previously studied and in what type of environment that education took place. Similarly\, it is important to be informed of the available learning opportunities for students who wish to continue studying Japanese.

SUMMARY:April Films: Tokyo Story
DESCRIPTION:Classics: Tokyo Story\nDir. Yasujiro Ozu\, 1953\, 136 min.\nIn Japanese with English subtitles \nOne of Japan’s most acclaimed films\, both domestically and internationally\, Yasujiro Ozu’s Tokyo Story delicately but devastatingly critiques 20th century family values. An elderly couple travels Tokyo and Osaka to visit their adult children\, but finds that only their widowed daughter-in-law receives them warmly\, while the others find ways to push them aside. Without drama or fanfare\, we nonetheless experience the heartbreak of their neglect. Tokyo Story\, says film critic Roger Ebert\, “lacks sentimental triggers and contrived emotion; it looks away from moments a lesser movie would have exploited. It doesn’t want to force our emotions\, but to share its understanding.” \nClassics Series: Revisiting the all-time greats of Japanese Cinema \nRelated event: Cherry Blossoms\n \n

SUMMARY:Japanese through Films: The Voices from a Distant Star
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now closed. Thank you for your interest. \nDo you like Japanese? Do you like films? Why not join us at the Japan Foundation Toronto for “Japanese through Films”! \nThis time we will look at the short film The Voices from a Distant Star\, and learn not only how to talk about movies in Japanese\, but also about reading and writing short letters/e-mails. \nThis class is for Late beginner students of Japanese (approximately JLPT N5 or JF Standard A2). \n  \n  \n  \n  \nFilm Synopsis: \nMiddle school students Mikako Nagamine and Noboru Terao are close friends and members of the same club activities. But in the summer of 2046\, Mikako tells Noboru that she has been chosen as a Select Member of the United Nations Space Army. Mikako leaves Earth in the winter of 2047\, while Noboru goes on to high school in Japan. Separated by space\, the two try to stay in touch by mobile mail. However\, as Mikako goes farther out in the solar system on board the Lysithea spaceship\, it takes increasingly longer for each to receive the other’s mail. Noboru stays on Earth\, frustrated by his situation and resigned to the fact that he can only wait for Mikako’s emails. As time goes by\, the Lysithea fleet approaches a time warp\, a situation that make both Mikako and Noboru acutely aware of the time gap separating them.

SUMMARY:Why States Solicit Citizen Input:  The Introduction of Jury Systems in Japan and East Asia
DESCRIPTION:Over the last decade\, jury systems have been introduced in Japan and also South Korea and Taiwan.  Traditionally\, these states’ criminal trials have been dominated by professional judges. So what are the factors that lead to states allowing greater public input into their criminal proceedings? \nFor the state\, greater public input may enhance the legitimacy of the justice system. And numerous studies of US juries have found that serving as a juror enhances the civic-mindedness of citizens. However\, greater public input into criminal proceedings also brings with it considerable risk.  Jury members may have different criteria than professional judges for determining guilt or deciding what sentences might be appropriate.  Why\, despite the perceived risks\, have states decided to introduce a lay judge system? \nThis talk will examine\, primarily\, the Japanese\, but also other Asian contexts\, to explain both the timing and structure of these new jury systems. \n\nAbout the Speaker \nRieko Kage is Associate Professor of Political Science in the Department of Advanced Social and International Studies at the University of Tokyo. Her research is in the field of comparative politics\, with a special focus on participation and civil society. She is the author of the book Civic Engagement in Postwar Japan: The Revival of a Defeated Society\, which received Honorable Mention as the Outstanding Book in Nonprofit and Voluntary Action Research from the Association for Research on Nonprofit Organizations and Voluntary Action\, as well as the Jury’s Prize from the Japan Nonprofit Organizations Research Association. She is currently co-editor of the Japanese political science journal Leviathan. Kage previously taught at Kobe University and at the University of Michigan\, where she was the Toyota Visiting Professor during 2010-2011. She received her B.A. and M.A. in law from Kyoto University and her Ph.D. in Government from Harvard University. \nPresented in co-operation with Japan Futures Initiative \n  \n

SUMMARY:Cinema Kabuki
DESCRIPTION:Cinema Kabuki\nin high definition on the big screen\nFebruary 28 & March 1\, 2015 at the TIFF Bell Lightbox\, Toronto\nDirect from Japan/Subtitled in English\nKabuki Theatre\, with origins dating back to the 1600s\, has remained steeped in tradition while constantly innovating. Live productions\, featuring some of today’s greatest Kabuki stars\, are now being filmed with the highest resolution cameras for screening in cinemas around the world on state-of-the-art digital projection systems and six-channel sound. \n\nCalendar of screenings\nTIFF Bell Lightbox\, 350 King Street West\, Toronto\nSaturday\, February 28\, 2015\n1:00 pm The Zen Substitute\n3:00 pm The Revenge on Togitatsu \nSunday\, March 1\, 2015\n1:00 pm Lion Dance\, Kagamijishi\n3:30 pm Kagotsurube\, The Haunted Sword \nAdditional Events\nTalk Series at The Japan Foundation\, Toronto (Details TBA \nTicket sales open January 14 for TIFF members\, January 22 for non-members\nwebsite\n416.599.TIFF (8433) or in person at the Steve & Rashmi Gupta Box Office at TIFF Bell Lightbox\n$22.75 (includes HST but not service fees) (TIFF member discounts apply)\nFor more information: 416.966.1600 ex.229 \n \n  \n  \n\n(c) Shochiku Pictures \n \nThe Zen Substitute\n(a dance comedy)\nMigawari Zazen\nPremiere: 1910\nWritten by Shiko Okamura/Directed for Cinema Kabuki by Kiyoshi Sekine\nRecorded live at Kabuki-za Theatre\, Tokyo\, 2009\n62 minutes\, subtitled in English \nLord Ukyo announces to his wife that he will hold a Zen-prayer session\, locking himself in a pavilion overnight. But the truth is that he wants to sneak out to see a woman he encountered on his recent trip. A love affair is fun\, and a little cheating would not cause too much harm. As a substitute\, a poor servant is forced to stay in the prayer pavilion in place of the lord. Although the lord’s wife is not supposed to visit her husband out of respect for his isolation\, she is so monstrously affectionate that she breaks her promise… A simple domestic farce is elevated to an expression of the joyful energy of life by two of the best dancers of the Kabuki world\, Kanzaburo and Mitsugoro.\nreturn to top \n\n(c) Shochiku Pictures \n \nThe Revenge on Togitatsu\n(a satiric comedy)\nTogitatsu no Utare\nPremiere: 2001\nWritten and directed for stage by Hideki Noda/directed for Cinema Kabuki by Hiroyuki Nakatani\nRecorded live at Kabuki-za Theatre\, Tokyo\, 2005\nKanzaburo\, Fukusuke\, Somegoro\, Kantaro\, Mitsugoro\n97 minutes\, subtitled in English \nContemporary playwright/director Hideki Noda updated this Kabuki play by loading it with irony and criticism of today’s society. Tatsuji is a sword-sharpener from the commoner class who was recently accepted to samurai rank. His “successful” rise in the hierarchy was merely the result of his clever verbal tactics and materialistic values. He blames his own failures on others\, shows no respect for the noble philosophy of the samurai\, and impertinently flatters the lady of the house. Somehow\, he happens to become caught in a situation in which he is hunted by two brothers avenging their father’s death. The gigantic revolving stage represents the hilarious chase across Japan. In the play\, the common people display their hunger for an honourable hero who will amuse them. The avengers are as reluctant as Tatsuji\, who is entirely exhausted by continually escaping from them. Isn’t the revenge simply a murder? What is all this killing for? Visual quotations from global culture\, such as baseball and West Side Story\, sparklingly decorate the piece on the surface\, yet dark questions still lie just underneath.\nreturn to top \n\n(c) Shochiku Pictures \n \nLion Dance\n(a dance performance)\nKagamijishi\nPremiered in 1893\nWritten by Ochi Fukuchi/Composed by Shojiro Kineya III/Directed for Cinema Kabuki by Sokichi Sagawa\nRecorded live at Kabuki-za Theatre\, Tokyo\, 2009\n70 min. (Introduction 10 min. + 59 min )\, subtitled in English \nFor the late Kanzaburo XVIII “Lion Dance” was the most precious gem of his family tradition. Danjuro IX\, who created the piece\, was the mentor of Kanzaburo’s grandfather\, Kikugoro VI. Four generations of the best Kabuki actors of their eras nurtured “Kagami Jishi” and developed it into one of the best examples of the dance repertoire in Kabuki theatre. A single dancer conjures up a stunning contrast of two images: A young maiden in the Shogun’s castle is transformed by the spirit of the majestic Shishi\, a mythical animal. The healthy\, sophisticated eroticism of a young woman is described by the dancer in the first part. She is noble\, sensitive\, yet coquettish at times. But\, when the spirit of the ferocious Shishi takes over her body\, the animal stamps the earth\, and swings his mane in the air\, celebrating the prosperity and glory of life. \nPreceded by: \nKikugoro VI Dances Kagamijishi\n(Documentary)\nKikugoro no Kagamijishi\n1936\nDirected by Yasujiro Ozu (1903-1963)\nSpecial screening of the archival footage in association with the Cinema Kabuki “Lion Dance” \nThe Japan Cultural Association commissioned this theatrical documentary to introduce Japanese culture abroad. The scenes were shot in 1935 and 1936. Two masters crowned this precious cultural legacy: Kabuki actor Kikugoro VI and filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu. The genius of the dancing talent of Kikugoro was captured by Ozu\, so free in form and full of spontaneity. Kagamijishi is Mt. Everest for Kabuki actors to challenge\, and all contemporary performers study this film so closely when they are assigned to dance this piece. So did Kanzaburo XVIII\, the only grandson of Kikugoro VI.\nreturn to top \n\n(c) Shochiku Pictures \n \nKagotsurube\, The Haunted Sword\n(a story of the pleasure quarter)\nKagotsurube Sato no Eizame\nPremiere: 1888\nWritten by Shinshichi Kawatake/Directed for Cinema Kabuki by Hiroyuki Nakatani\nRecorded live at Kabuki-za Theatre\, Tokyo\, 2010\n113 minutes\, subtitled in English \nOn the main street of the Yoshiwara pleasure district the top courtesan Yatsuhashi makes a luxurious procession through the fully blooming cherry trees. Miraculously\, she happens to smile at Jirozaemon\, a country merchant in the crowd. Who would have ever imagined that this momentary encounter could be the cause of a mass murder? A love triangle forces the courtesan to reject her best customer in the middle of a banquet — the most dishonourable humiliation of all. Jirozaemon seizes the haunted sword Kagotsurube\, which inevitably invites bloodshed once it is drawn. Kanzaburo and Tamasaburo are joined by Nizaemon to form a dream cast for this Kabuki classic.\nreturn to top

Premiering in 1910\, The Zen Substitute is one of the best examples of this genre. The simple\, domestic plot rises to the level of a romantic fairy tale through music and ingenious choreography. Mitsugoro and the late Kanzaburo teamed up to fill the stage with the joy of life.

SUMMARY:The World of Beer: Brewed in Japan\, Brewed in Canada
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Dr. Jeffrey Alexander and Nicholas Pashley\nThe popularity of beer transcends borders\, languages and culture. But how have beer industries developed in Japan and here at home in Canada? Dr. Jeffrey Alexander and Nicholas Pashley will examine this question as we look deeper into the world of beer. \nNicholas Pashley\, the author of Cheers: An Intemperate History of Beer in Canada will discuss the development of brewing in Canada from the early days of European settlement to the present. He will discuss four main periods: the growth of brewing (as well as taverns and inns) up to the Prohibition era; the dismal impact of Prohibition; the aftermath of Prohibition and the consolidation of the brewing industry into three\, then two\, major national – and subsequently multinational – breweries by the 1970s; and the welcome appearance of a fledgling craft brewing movement that began in the 1980s and is thriving today. \nDr. Alexander reveals how Japanese consumers adopted and domesticated beer in just a few generations\, despite its entirely foreign origins. His book\, Brewed in Japan\, spans the earliest attempts at beer brewing in the 1870s to the recent popularity of local craft brews\, charting beer’s steady rise to become the “beverage of the masses.” The fortunes and fumbles of Japan’s major brewers shed light on a variety of issues\, including technology\, modernization\, women\, war\, consumer preferences\, and popular culture. This presentation will further illustrate how post-war marketing campaigns and shifting consumer preferences made beer Japan’s leading alcoholic beverage by the 1960s. Dr. Alexander will also discuss his ongoing project on Japan’s postwar whisky trade. \n————————————————————— \nAbout the Speakers \nNicholas Pashley is the author of Notes on a Beermat: Drinking and Why It’s Necessary and Cheers: An Intemperate History of Beer in Canada and writes a regular column on drinking for Men’s Fashion magazine. He is a founding board member of Toronto Beer Week and CASK! Toronto\, an organization bent on promoting cask-conditioned ale. Pashley lives in Toronto and can be found in fine pubs everywhere. He is stalked by a handful of cognoscenti on Twitter at @NotesOnABeermat. 2015 will mark the 50th anniversary of his first visit to a tavern. \nDr. Jeffrey Alexander is Associate Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin at Parkside. He received his Ph.D. in History from the University of British Columbia in 2005\, and he researches Japan’s industrial and commercial progress\, as well as shifting patterns of consumption since 1870. Jeffrey is also the author of Japan’s Motorcycle Wars: An Industry History\, and has given invited lectures at Harvard University\, Stanford University\, and the International House of Japan in Tokyo. Last year\, he delivered the 2014 Mitsui Distinguished Lecture at John Carroll University in Ohio. Further information and excerpts are available at: www.brewedinjapan.com \n \nThis event is presented in cooperation with the Japan Studies Association of Canada and with support from UBC Press and Sleeman Breweries Ltd.\, a member of Sapporo Group.
