What influence did Chang 'an culture in Tang Dynasty have on the classical literature of Nara era in Japan?

China's civilization was the most brilliant in the Tang Dynasty, forming an East Asian cultural circle with Tang Wenhua as the core. At the core, the culture of the Tang Dynasty had a far-reaching influence on neighboring countries with its strong radiation. What influence did Chang 'an culture in Tang Dynasty have on the classical literature of Nara era in Japan?

First, the influence of official historical documents of Tang Dynasty on Nara's historical writing.

In the feudal era of China, rulers of past dynasties attached great importance to compiling history books. Once the new regime is established, the rulers will generally set up special historical editing institutions and appoint historians. They will not only compile the historical books of the previous dynasty as a reference for the general plan of governing the country, but also order the compilation of historical books and political records of the current dynasty as a praise and praise for the emperor's ambition to govern the country and Confucian benevolence and righteousness.

Classic historical books that are extremely important in Japanese history and have been handed down to this day, such as Historical Records, History of Six Kingdoms, Folklore Records, Poetry Collection, Chiba Collection, Huaifengzao, Poetry Collection, etc., were all written in the Nara era. The compilation of these historical records can not be separated from the direct influence of the official history of the Tang Dynasty. This influence is manifested in the following aspects: the writing motivation, writing style, structural context, language framework, historical thinking and historical facts of Japanese history books, which completely inherited the characteristics and styles of Tang Dynasty history books and even copied some written expressions.

Second, the influence of Chang 'an literature in Tang Dynasty on Nara classical literature in Japan.

Ye Wan Collection, the first Japanese rhyme collection with literary characteristics, was also written in the Nara era. Ye Ji has been endowed with a very high position in the history of Japanese literature, and has become the originator of other literary works in later generations, especially contributing to the development of Japanese poetry. Because of this, the Nara era is also called the Japanese "Ye Wan era" by scholars. However, Ye Wan was not built in a day. On the premise of absorbing and learning a lot of Chang 'an culture in the Tang Dynasty, it imitates and follows the poems and songs of the Tang Dynasty, and gradually develops the consciousness of literary creation.

To sum up, it is through the diplomatic envoys, scholars, overseas students, and even Tang people with different occupations and backgrounds who went to Japan that the active and nutritious cultural seeds of Chang 'an, Tang Dou were continuously sown in Nara, Japan, which was in urgent need of advanced cultural nourishment, thus bearing the unique achievements of historical classics in Nara era and making contributions to the official history of Japan.

Its birth had a profound and lasting impact on the Heian period and even the continuation of Japanese medieval and modern historiography? .
