Research Abstract |
This research analyzed Chinese dynastic legitimacy in the eighteenth- and the first half of nineteenth-century Japanese Confucian Thought, examining the political backdrop and intellectual transformations that took place during the late Ming and early Qing periods. Owing to the influence of scholars and others from the Ming who had defected to Japan, the Tokugawa government was at first hesitant to recognize the legitimacy of Qing dynasty. Following the government's eventual recognition of Qing rule, the evaluation of the legitimacy of Qing as opposed to Ming scholarship drastically changed in the intellectual world as well. As it is well known, the rise of National Learning in Western Japanese intellectuals was one response for the transition. This study examined the Eastern Tokugawa governmental Confucians' case and shows the outline of transition and evaluation of scholarly legitimacy in each stage in the history of imported Qing's books.
