The History of Manga

 LI: To read for meaning and understanding.



Our reading comprehension focus today was to complete a  about the history of Manga to show that we are reading for meaning and understanding. Our final challenge in this activity was to create a DLO to share the information we found out. Manga is a originated japanese collection and series of comic books/graphic novels. Manga was first founded from scrolls back in the 12th - 13th centuries. The word Manga was first bring to light when Hokusai Katsushika used it to describe his ukiyo-e sketches. In 1853+ Manga was than starting to take hold of western influence. Between the years of 1945 - 1980, Manga started to make an appearance as “modern manga”. Osamu Tezuka a Japanese manga artist, created a new and frsh part to the history of manga. 

I found it interesting that the oldest Manga is from the 12th and 13th century.

    I found reading your DLO about the history of Manga very informative and interesting. It is fascinating that something dating back to the 12th century has come such a long way and is so popular around the world today. I didn't know that Manga books are read right to left which I found interesting.
    Great work
