Japanology Plus
Geisha (1x30)
Ausstrahlung: Dez 18, 2014
A private banquet in the company of geisha is considered the ultimate in elegant hospitality. A common misconception is that geisha are courtesans - in reality, they are skilled practitioners of traditional performing arts.
At one time, there were 80,000 of them working in Japan, but only about 1,000 remain today.
Our expert guest Kenji Watanabe, a scholar of early modern Japanese literature, will guide us into the real world of geisha.
And in Plus One, playing party games with geisha!
