| Research Abstract |
The present research aims to investigate and evaluate how the fields of literary and visual arts in later early modern and modern(Meiji era) Japan came to influence each other, eventually forming a coherent sphere of cultural activity. Especially close attention was paid to portraits painted or printed between the bakumatsu and second decade of the Meiji era, and how these reflected or influenced the thinking of contemporary intellectuals and political activists. Research was focused on the following three problems : 1. The intertextuality of portraits and kanshibun(sinological prose and poetry). 2. Portraits of and by bakumatsu era activists. 3. Kanshibun inscribed on images and portraits of beautiful women.
