Research Abstract |
This research investigates the Chinese translations of Jitsuzo Kuwabara's Secondary Oriental History Textbook, which was a typical textbook of Oriental history in the Meiji Era. By surveying the characteristics of historical description in Kuwabara's Oriental history and analyzing Kuwabara's original book and its Chinese translations, the research examines why Meiji Japan's "Oriental history" was regarded as "Chinese history"in late Imperial China and how the original book was translated and revised into "Chinese history".
