Japanese culture and Japanese literature, characteristics of Japanese literature

I think they go hand in hand.

1. The introverted character of Japanese literature.

One of the traditions of Japanese literature is that writers pursue more delicate emotional experiences, mainly expressing ordinary daily life, expressing calm thinking about society and life in the plain and simple ecological life. From Japan's earliest collection of poems "Manyoshu".

From the point of view, its mainstream is lyric poetry and landscape poetry. It is needless to say that lyric poetry only focuses on the expression of personal feelings, and rarely reflects the pure problems of society.

and the characteristics of the times.

2. The delicate and subtle character of Japanese literature.

In terms of form, its literary forms were mostly short and simple in structure before modern times. From ancient times, literature in the form of tanka was the most developed, and later developed into renga, haiku, and haiku.

Wait. Since then, essays and diaries have also pursued the refinement of words and the beauty of style. The development of prose contributed to the development of the short story ** form of monogatari.

In Japan, even if it is a long story, the structure is composed of short forms, and this characteristic has become a tradition throughout the history of Japanese literature.

3. The tradition of supra-political tendencies in Japanese literature.

4. The open character of Japanese literature. Japan is good at absorbing foreign literary creations to enrich its own works.

5. The closeness of literary exchanges between China and Japan.

Is there literature in Japan?

If you want to watch it, just look at the history of Japanese films, that film, hehe.

Perhaps it is this worldview that has enabled Buddhism to spread in Japan, or perhaps because when Buddhism was introduced to Japan, Buddhists took the Japanese negative view of the world as the impermanence of the present world, so that Buddhism could occupy a piece of the world in Japan, and it was precisely because Buddhism and the Japanese view that everything would eventually disappear was combined. For example, even "The Tale of Genji", which is famous for its depiction of the prosperous days of the world, has the shadow of death everywhere, and "The Tale of Eika", which depicts the rich and prosperous life of Fujiwara Michicho, is also infused with scenes of death and tragedy about the eventual demise of a family. Even in the Middle Ages, the representative of the military story is "The Tale of the Heike Family", which has a history span of 70 years, and the long military ** finally ends with the demise of the Heike family, and in the "Heike Monogatari" through the rise and fall of the Heike family, the destruction of the Heike family expresses the impermanence of the present world to the fullest.

But in general, the aesthetics of extinction, the aesthetics of negation, still dominate in Japanese literature.

Japan is particularly fond of writing negative psychology to reflect reality, so its heart.

The description is particularly delicate. The Japanese people have a great sense of crisis, most of them like to write about the struggling lives of people on the fringes of the city, the Japanese admire nature, are very environmentally conscious, advocate returning to nature, and like to describe the benefits of free survival in literature, ridiculing the excessive materialization of capitalist society. First of all, I haven't read much about it, that's all.
