| Research Abstract |
Every researcher of comparative literature knows that all of the literary works, oral, written or symbiotic, were produced under the influence of the society in which they were developed. No one can therefore further his/her study without knowledge of the societies involved and their histories. By this, we can assimilate, whatever the method is, the fruit of comparative history. The French historian Marc Bloch suggested "to choose from one or several social situations, two or more phenomena which appear at first sight to offer certain analogies between them; then to trace their line of evolution, to note the likenesses and the differences, and as far as possible explain them" (A Contribution towards a comparative history of European societies). We can find many points of comparison between Japanese and European heroic poetry in the 13^<th> century, although there were essentially no relations between both of the societies. For the purpose of comparing the heroic poetries I proposed to establish a new research method.
