从《唐代文化与天平文化》看日本吸取外来文化的特质

A Review of the Features on Japan's Assimilating Foreign Culture Based on the Culture of Tang Dynasty and Tianping

唐代文化是中国的一代盛世文化。与此相对,天平文化也是日本的盛世文化。只不过,唐代文化早在日本天平文化之前,且其对天平文化的形成具有决定性的作用。日本的天平文化,可说是盛唐文化在日本的移植,融合与创新。由于当时日本在唐朝先进文化吸收上的种种特质,自然而然,她就创造了当时与中国相邻的别的任何国家所远不可及的灿烂文化。

The culture of Tang Dynasty is the most flourishing in ancient China. Similarly, the culture of Tianping is also an important cultural period in Japan. But the culture of Tang Dynasty is much earlier than that of Tianping, and the former makes a decisive effect on the culture of Tianping. In a word, the culture of Tianping is the transplanting, mixing and even new creation. It is based on the the features on Japan＇ s assimilating the culture of Tang Dynasty, so naturally Japan creates the splendid culture that is not able to be made by any other countries bordering China.
