Little Things We Forgot We Learned: Readings on culture and intercultural communication for English students in Japan - Softcover
Synopsis
Edward Hall believed that by interacting with people from other cultures, we learn about them, but also discover our own hidden patterns of thought. These are the "little things we forgot we learned."
Students from Japan preparing to work or study abroad need intercultural communication skills, but books containing the necessary information often contain unfamiliar references or language that is not level-appropriate. This text is specifically written to be accessible to an audience with a Japanese background, but with an intermediate to advanced level of English.
It covers many of the concepts and names typically included in introductory courses on intercultural communication in English-speaking countries, but with examples that students without overseas experience can understand. It also includes a discussion of diversity in Japan, which will be relevant for many years to come.
Contents include:
What is culture?
Identity
Basic introductions to Hofstede, Edward Hall, and other important researchers
Preparing for study abroad
Nonverbal communication
Power and status
Culture shock
Stereotyping
How marginality can be advantageous
Plus a (very) basic introduction to the humanities compared to social science, and research methods
