研究開始時の研究の概要 |
As described by recent scholarship, the late 19th-century Buddhist revival in China originated from Sino-Japanese encounters. This project investigates Japanese Indology's influence on the formation of a similar field in China, contributing to our understanding of East Asian perspectives on India.

研究実績の概要 |
In accordance with the research plan, in FY2023 the fellow focused on collecting primary and secondary materials from various libraries while deepening her knowledge of modern Japanese Buddhism and Sino-Japanese Buddhist exchanges. To this end, she made two research trips -- one to Tokyo and one to Kyoto -- to meet and discuss research with leading scholars of modern Japanese Buddhism and religion. In Tokyo, she met with Erik Schicketanz, Chen Jidong, and Rainer Schulzer, among others. In Kyoto, she met with Moro Shigeki and Moriya Tomoe. During her stay, she also visited Ryukoku University to meet with Dake Nobuya and to search for materials in the university library. She also delivered an invited lecture at Kyoto University titled “Philosophical Expressions: Indian Philosophy in Japan and China at the Turn of the Twentieth Century”. Gathering material and discussing her research with leading scholars has been productive and has enabled the fellow to advance her research in two significant ways: (i) she has identified the often-overlooked interwar period as a fruitful time for studying exchanges between Japanese and Chinese Buddhists, and (ii) having previously been more familiar with Chinese Buddhist Reformism, she has significantly enhanced her understanding of modern Japanese Buddhist Reformism. This has improved her grasp of the similarities and differences between Chinese and Japanese Buddhist Reformisms, as well as their distinct conceptualizations of both Indology and India.

理由
The project is progressing according to the research plan. The fellow and host researcher envisioned that the first semester of the project would be devoted to gathering material, studying the Japanese perspective on Sino-Japanese Buddhist exchanges at the turn of the twentieth century, and establishing contacts with scholars in Japan working on similar research topics. So far, she has achieved this to a satisfactory degree. She has collected primary sources, mainly in Sendai and Kyoto. The fellow and host researcher have commenced translating the travelogue of the Japanese Buddhist intellectual Inoue Enryo, who during his travels in India met the renowned Chinese reformer and scholar Kang Youwei, then exiled in Darjeeling. As a prominent Meiji intellectual, especially in philosophy, Buddhism, and religion, Inoue significantly influenced Japanese perceptions of India. Additionally, the fellow has begun to establish a personal network in Japan with scholars working on modern Japanese Buddhism, Japanese Indology, and Sino-Japanese Buddhist exchanges. Given her findings from the past semester, the fellow has decided to narrow her focus to Sino-Japanese exchanges during the interwar period. Although this period has often been overlooked by scholars, her preliminary research suggests it was a rich time for Sino-Japanese Buddhist interactions, particularly among Japanese Buddhists living in China and their Chinese counterparts.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
In the FY2024, the fellow plans to devote most of her time to analyzing the material she has collected. Her scholarly output will include completing a critical translation of Inoue Enryo's travelogue of India, expected to be published by the International Inoye Enryo Research journal, and writing a journal article about Ri Hua Fojiao/Nikka Bukkyo 日華佛敎. This bilingual periodical, which features articles on Buddhism in both Chinese and Japanese, was published during the interwar period. Her research activities will include delivering a talk at Shanghai Normal University to present her FY2023 findings. This talk will be hosted by Wu Peiyao, who is also researching Sino-Japanese Buddhist exchanges in the early twentieth century. Together with host researcher Orion Klautau and fellow scholars Erik Schicketanz and Chen Jidong, she is organizing an international workshop titled "Imaginations of the 'Other' Asian: Triangular Exchanges between Japan, China, and India." The workshop aims to gather scholars from Europe, the US, and Asia to explore the historical connections among these regions. She has also submitted a proposal to the conference "Cross-Regional and Cross-Cultural Interaction and Integration between Buddhism and Other Asian Religions" at Zhejiang University. If accepted, she will present her research on the journal Ri Hua Fojiao/Nikka Bukkyo. Additionally, she will continue working on publications that build on her previous research and intersect with her current project.
