| Research Abstract |
Late-Ming economis development and theprospered materialistic culture of southern China made the high-class townsmen, who had become economically wealthy, begin to appreciate intellectual pursuits as well. Toward this goal, they adopted the lifestyle and values of the literati, which had been previously prized only by the ruling class. They strived to change and regulate every aspect of their lives according to the literati values.
This new interest in the world of the literati within contemporary popular culture, prompted the publication of books that explained in detail the literati lifestyle, taste and values, one of which was "Lun sheng ba jian, " or "Eight Discourses on the Art of Living, " by Gao Lian, published during the Wanli reign of 1573-1619. The idea contained in this book were not new but rather started in the Song and Yuan Dynasties and had become commonplace by the sixteenth century. Its value lay not in its originality, but rather as an indication of the pervasiveness of these deals outside of the ruling class.
Literati fashion, popular in late Ming China as mentioned above, came to be accepted and emulated not only by the Japanese ruler class but also by the townsmen of the 18th century and penetrated Japanese society onwards, gradually changing the lifestyle of the townspeople and also influencing the theme and motifs of the prints and paintings of that period.
In this reaserch we analysed what was the the litelati fashion originally in China, how it was introduced to Japan, and how far the theme and motifs reflected the values of the people of those times.
