an (e)Book (in French) about Japan's Cultural Heritage 

​by Philippe Huysveld (GBMC)



​This (e)Book, by Philippe Huysveld of GBMC, entitled "Searching for Japan's Cultural Heritage", is intended to be a biographical and cultural essay, a testimony, a work of reflection on the cultural heritage of the Land of the Rising Sun, presented in a personal, even subjective way, by the author whose first trip to Japan dates back to the summer 1989.

The first part of the book focuses on the “culture shock” he experienced during his two-month industrial internship at Kobe Steel in Kobe, Kansai region, in 1989.

The second part covers the beginning of a broader period starting in October 1992, in Kyoto, the cultural capital. This is a phase of adaptation to everyday life, in the specific case of a scholarship student in Japan.

The third part of this work does not cover a specific period: it is an attempt to summarise the different cultural notions that your modest guide has assimilated over the years.

Finally, the fourth part entitled “Cultural Illumination” is a bit the culmination of this long journey of discovery and adaptation. Driven by his inspiration, the author tries to connect the two civilisations through texts and attempts to establish bridges between the different types of theatrical expression.



INTRODUCTION (in French):


"Cet ouvrage se veut un essai biographique et culturel, un témoignage, une œuvre de réflexion portant sur le patrimoine culturel du Pays du Soleil Levant, exposée de manière personnelle, voire subjective, par l'auteur dont le premier voyage au Japon remonte à l’été 1989.

La première partie du livre porte sur le « choc des cultures » qu’il a expérimenté lors de son stage industriel de deux mois chez Kobe Steel à Kobe, dans la région du Kansai, en 1989.

La deuxième partie couvre le début d’une période plus large démarrant en octobre 1992, à Kyoto, la capitale culturelle. Il s’agit d’une phase d’adaptation à la vie de tous les jours, dans le cas particulier d’un étudiant boursier au Japon.

La troisième partie de cet ouvrage ne couvre pas une période spécifique : c’est un essai de synthèse des différentes notions culturelles que votre modeste guide a assimilées au cours des années.

Enfin, la quatrième partie intitulée « Illumination Culturelle » est un peu l’aboutissement de ce long parcours de découverte et d’adaptation.  Poussé par son inspiration, l’auteur essaie de relier par des textes les deux civilisations et tente d’établir des ponts entre les différents types d’expression théâtrale.
