Abstract

P(論文)

Kokanshiren is one of the representative poets among the Gozan Buddist monk poets. He is noted for his six Fu prose. Although Fu prose is an important style in Chinese literature, Japanese poets find it difficult to compose. Kokanshiren's Fu prose is particularly interesting if we consider his knowledge of Chinese literature and theory. Kokanshiren's writing method was influenced by Chinese Fu prose written in different Chinese eras. He changes his style depending on the themes. Kokanshiren insisted that if a person is open to new ideas, he can excel. A person must have a sense of self and appreciate the law of nature. This way of Buddhist thinking is written in an easy to understand way. Kokanshiren was not only influenced by Buddhism, but also had a strong comprehension of Confucianism and Taoism.
