Synopsis

Compared with chinese scholars' research on the history of Japanese sinology, Japanese native scholars are one step ahead. As far as the author can see, Kenjiro Makino's History of Japanese Sinology is the earliest, most systematic and comprehensive history of Japanese sinology.

Kenjiro Makino (1863-1937), courtesy name Junyi, was born in Takamatsu Domain (present-day Kagawa Prefecture) and was a Japanese sinologist. Kenjiro Makino received good teaching since childhood, his grandfather Makino Mogan was a professor at the Takamatsu domain in Edo, and his father, Makino Matsumura, was a professor at the Takamatsu domain. From the 10th year of the Meiji era (1877), Kenjiro Makino studied at Hoen Academy from Fujisawa Minamitake for nearly a year. Fujisawa Nangaku is the son-in-law of Makino Moan, the uncle of Kenjiro Makino.

In Meiji 26 (1893), Kenjiro Makino wrote at the Kokukasha Society, founded the magazine "Dawn" in Meiji 30 (1897), and in Meiji 34 (1901), he served as the chief writer of the weekly newspaper "Nihon Shimbun". In Meiji 39 (1906), he co-founded the magazine China with Matsudaira Yasukuni. Although Shuguang and "China" were soon discontinued, from the thirteenth day of Taisho (1924) until his death, he had his works in every issue of the toyo culture magazine of the Oriental Culture Society, which was a series of hundreds of times of commentaries on the scriptures.

《Works by Tatsumi Makino》

Kenjiro Makino's History of Japanese Sinology is his lecture notes at Waseda University since the 1920s. Depending on the school year, the lecture notes either focus on the pre-Edo period, or focus on the Edo period, or focus on the Meiji period, but the purpose of the lecture notes is to provide an overview of antiquity to modern times, and it is a complete history of Japanese sinology from ancient times to the present, from ancient times to the present. At the end of each academic year, Kenjiro Makino would mimeograph the transcription of the lecture notes, and consider compiling the lecture notes into a formal textbook for publication.

In the last two years of his life, he recruited Miura Hachi, a former wased a graduate of Waseda University and his assistant at the time, to take notes on parts of his oral history of Edo or Meiji sinology, and agreed to publish a book with Tetsuo Bajing, who also graduated from Waseda University and ran a bookstore. Therefore, the compilation of the book was initiated by Kenjiro Makino himself, but unfortunately this long-cherished wish was never realized during his lifetime.

After Kenjiro Makino's death, in addition to the lecture notes and transcription mimeographs he prepared every year for his lectures, only the notes of Miura Leaf and other fragments of the aforementioned books were provided. As a result, the book was compiled and published, mainly thanks to Miura Leaf.

History of Japanese Sinology, Japanese edition

Born in Meiji 44 (1911), Miura graduated from Waseda University in 1933 and later studied at the Graduate School of The Tokyo Institute of Oriental Culture at Nippon University and The Infinity Association. He successively served as an assistant to Professor Kenjiro Makino of Waseda University, a member of the Toyo Bunka Society, an editor of Toyo Culture, a professor at Nishi women's University, a director of the Infinity Society, and the director of the Nishidaiji Cultural Museum. In addition to sorting out the "History of Japanese Sinology", he is also the author of "Sinology in the Meiji Era", "History of Meiji Chinese Literature", "Miscellaneous Examinations of Chinese Language in Recent Times", "History of Bizen Sinology in Recent Times", "Sinology of Bizen", "Sinology of Okayama", "Tales of The Present and Past of Nishidaiji Temple", "Mulian SheManbi", etc.

Miura thought that Naoshi's "History of Japanese Sinology" only covered the middle and early Meiji period, so he wrote two other books, "Sinology in the Meiji Era" (Kiko-koen 1998 edition) and "History of Meiji Han Literature" (Kiko-gakuin 1998 edition) to supplement it, which basically covered all aspects of the transition period of modern Sinology in Japan, especially "Meiji Sinology", focusing especially on the relationship between modern academic transformation and sinology research.

The book is divided into three parts: Meiji's Theory of Sinology; The Research and Activities of Sinologists; and Chinese Character Education. Among them, the seventh chapter of the second part is devoted to the study of the history of Chinese literature in the Meiji era[1], and introduces in more detail a number of Chinese literary histories that appeared in Japan in the late Meiji period. Since these literary histories have been rarely reprinted later, even if they are stored in major libraries in Japan, they are generally used as the protection of ancient books of the Meiji era, and there are not many people who can see them.

"Essay on Silent Water Residence"

These literary histories, either written by faculty members at Waseda University or published as lecture notes from Waseda University, and Miura Ye graduated from Early College in his early years and served as an assistant to Kenjiro Makino, most of which are first-hand sources, which is of great reference value for understanding the entire study of Chinese literary history in the late Meiji period.

Kenjiro Makino's History of Japanese Sinology was followed by Takeshiro Kurashi's Development of Japanese Sinology,[2] which was his lecture at the University of Tokyo in 1946. The book is divided into twelve lectures, namely: the reception of mainland culture, the acceptance of Chinese learning and art in the Heian Dynasty, the development of the doctorate's learning and reading methods, the Sino-Japanese exchanges between the Shogunate of Kamakura after the abolition of the Tang Dynasty, the new notes on Song Studies and The Literature of the Five Mountains, the new notes on Theagawara, the linluo mountain and the Yamazaki Minsai training point, ito Hitozai and Hagisei Wandering, the Yuan School and the Tang Dynasty, the development of the Edo period and the development of novels and operas, the Han poetry and learning art of the Meiji period at the end of the shogunate, Sinology and Oriental history, Kyoto Chinese studies, Andiology and Oriental history of the imperial universities. The original book was quite brief, only a few dozen pages, compiled and annotated by Akira Oshima and others, and published by Nimatsu Gakushe University in Heisei 18 (2006).

The Development of Japanese Sinology

Finally, explain the translation and annotation of this book. Due to the great changes in the written language of Japan since modern times, different styles reflect different styles of the times, and in order to preserve the original appearance, the translation is also translated according to the original language style.

The lecture notes are written in simple and elegant language, and the translations are also written in simple and easy words, but there are many new words imported from the West, sandwiched in the text and sentence patterns; in addition, the sources of the lecture notes are complex, and the language style is quite diverse, in general, the narrative is in the vernacular, the discussion is in the vernacular, the translation is for the sake of respecting the original work, sometimes or the text is mixed, there is a sense of incongruity, and I still pray that the reader will see it.

The words used by the author in the japanese tone of the original work, such as I Dynasty, Mainland, And My State, etc., are changed as appropriate. The time in the original work is all in the Japanese era number chronology, and for convenience, the translation retains the era number while noting the Common Era era in parentheses. Makino's preface and Miura's example are written in vernacular, and translations are also in vernacular.

The author's original notes, notes, etc., are all enclosed in parentheses in the main text, and the bottom notes on the page are added by the translator. In principle, the translator's note does not evaluate the views of the original work, but only supplements the japanese words and concepts with background knowledge, or examines some of the issues in the original work. The original intention of the translator's note is to better show the ideological connotation of the original work, but due to the limited level of the translator, or there are omissions and misnotes, please be generous and not stingy to teach the right.
