Sažetak

Even nowdays a majority of Japanese people believe that from Yayoi to
the Edo period the Japanese society was an agricultural society based
on paddy fields and rice. For that reason rice played a great role in the
Japanese construction of identity throughout the centuries. The ideology
of rice and paddy fields is undoubtedly connected with the emperor
and state. Beside that it is the base of everyday life through working,
eating and festivals. In this way Japanese national, regional, linguistic
and religious distinctions are marked in culinary fashion and eating
habits.
