This study analyzes the influence of Japanese classical literature, theater, Kokugaku, Shintoism, Buddhism and Taoism in the critique of Japan written byPaul Claudel who stayed in Japan as the French ambassador to Japan from 1921 to 1927. It clarified that Claudel understood these Japanese cultures and ideas in relation to Thomism and incorporated them into his own literature. Claudel was particularly interested in the view of soul from the ideology of Norinaga Motoori and Atsutane Hirata, and I was able to highlight that it was the basis of his understanding of Japan. I made it clear that Claudel used Thomas Aquinas to translate these ideas of Kokugaku and thought that Japanese painting and performing arts were mediators of recognizing Transcendent.
