Japanese culture is gradually influenced and formed by Chinese culture. At first through Korean Peninsula, but in Nara and Heian Periods, Japan sent the special envoys to the Tang Dynasty, and came into direct contact with China. At that time, most of the Japanese intellectuals knew how to write Chinese poetry and had great cultivation of Sinology. In the end of the ninth century, Japan stopped sending the special envoys, and the cultivation of Sinology declined by degrees. But at the same time, Japan invented “kana” (Japanese syllabic script), and developed its own cultural style. In Edo Period, as a result of the vitality of the Gozan Literature, Sinology and Chinese poetry were popular again. But sometimes things will turn into their opposites when they reach the extreme. Just because Chinese culture and Confucian scholarship had a powerful influence, Japanese culture and scholarship rose abruptly in the middle of Edo Period. |
