"The lectures go according to the theories and studies made by famous people in the past, and you aren’t really encouraged to go out and find new things, but first to stuff yourself with the “basics” which are the books written in the past. In contrast, the anthropology courses in Japan encouraged us to find new topics within our current society and do research on our own. Of course we would read books, but we do not analyse the placings of the theories of the books within the context of the history of anthropology unless it’s the history of anthropology class. And our research extends to our daily lives, from newspapers to television to magazines to comic books to literature to traditional festivals and ancient dresses to random exhibitions, all the media that surrounds us are our research materials, and I was always looking out for interesting study related things on daily basis. The British way will gain you lots of knowledge on one particular topic." ~ Yuki
