Anglo-Japanese
cultural discussions in English:
Human Japanese Forum – This seems
to be quite a big site, and constantly active, too. Click here.
Jock Samurai – This, apparently,
is an Edinburgh-based website. It seems
to be a quiet affair as websites go, but it certainly is one of those rare
sites that make you feel glad you have visited them. There are forums in it. Click here.
Sheffield University Japan Society – This is a small but interesting site that comprises some forums on Japan
and the Japanese language. Click here.
Japan-based
forums in English:
Japan-guide.com Forum – This is a
part of the Japan-guide.com website that helps you on cultural topics when you
are travelling to Japan. You can ask
questions and get answers, and you can place ads, too. Click here.
Japanese Lifestyle Japan Forum – This is again a part of a “comprehensive cultural guide to Japan” type
of website. Though I have some
reservations about the parent site, I find the forum quite good. Click here.
London-based
stores for Japanese language textbooks (for self-study & tuition):
Grant & Cutler – This is the biggest foreign language bookstore in
the UK. They have an excellent selection
of textbooks in the Japanese language.
Because this store is an established academic supplier, they have a
strong focus on language teaching/learning materials for English speaking
learners. Click here.
Japan Centre – There is a bookshop in the basement. As well as books in Japanese for Japanese
people visiting or staying in London, they also have an excellent selection of
textbooks in the Japanese language. Here
you will find arguably the best stock on guidebooks and area studies books on
Japan, and on Japanese fiction translated into English. Click here.
More to
come! Please be patient and wait.
