The main influence of China culture on the Japanese;

1, the introduction of Chinese characters in China and the development of Japanese characters?

All ethnic groups in Japan, like other ethnic groups in the world, have long had their own spoken language, but as far as Japanese characters are concerned, it was only after Chinese characters from China were gradually introduced into Japan.

From the initial absence of characters in Japan to the creation of its own unique writing system of pseudonyms and "harmonious Chinese characters", this process is a process of comprehensively learning and introducing Chinese characters, and recreating them according to the original Japanese language.

After the introduction of Chinese characters into Japan, it not only promoted the progress of ancient Japanese culture, but also contributed to the emergence of Japanese characters and Hiragana. Although Japan doesn't have its own written language, it has transformed Chinese characters into its own characters through thorough transformation from function to form, which shows that the Japanese are not only good at imitating foreign cultures, but also good at processing and transforming them in the process of absorption and integration.

2. The influence of China's Confucianism on Japanese culture?

Confucianism is the main body of China's traditional culture, which has a far-reaching influence on the formation and development of Japanese traditional culture. Especially before Japanese capitalist thought came into being.

Confucianism was introduced into Japan about the fifth century ago. According to ancient records, Qi Zhi, a Wang Ren Baekje, was the first Confucian to come to Japan. He brought Confucian classics such as The Analects of Confucius and A Collection of Thousand Words, and taught Confucianism in Japan.

The epoch-making innovation of Dahua in Japanese history also took place under the profound influence of Confucianism. However, the Japanese's absorption of China's Confucianism was also selective, and it became Japanese Confucianism in the process of learning and absorbing Confucianism. In Japan, "benevolence" is completely excluded from the Japanese ethical system; In China's Confucianism, "loyalty" is conditional, while in Japan, "loyalty" to the monarch is unconditional obedience to the emperor.

As a social ideology, Japanese Confucianism has had a great and far-reaching influence on the Japanese nation and society. This influence inevitably continues to the whole process of Japan's historical development. It was not until the Meiji Restoration that the Japanese government began to accept western modern capitalist culture with different characteristics from Confucian culture, and Confucian culture was destined to start a special position different from any previous historical stage and play a more unique role in modern Japanese history. ?

3. The influence of Buddhism on Japanese culture?

With the introduction of Buddhism, China culture took root in Japan. Monks and their disciples arrived in Japan six times, which made great contributions to the spread and development of Buddhism in Japan.

Buddhism first spread to Japan through China in the 6th century. Buddhism was originally a belief of aristocrats such as Suwo, and it became a recognized belief of the imperial court before Dahua changed his profession.

From the events described in the poems Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio and Ye Wan Ji, we can find that the Japanese's love for life, optimism about life interest and compassion for death are incompatible with the pessimistic life philosophy of Buddhism. But for the need of cultural exchange and political rule, Buddhism gradually spread in Japan.

While absorbing China's Buddhist thoughts, Buddhism has been localized in Japan. The localization of Japanese Buddhism is marked by the prosperity and secularization of Pure Land Sect and Zen Sect.
