Abstract

Between the seventh and the ninth centuries the Tang Dynasty extended its cultural hegemony even to the regions on the borderlands. Those regions, however, managed to evade a total assimilation by adapting the dominant culture for their own use. The trace of such cultural negotiations can be found in their tribal songs written in Chinese characters, the language of the empire. This article will focus on the poetical works of Bai People, the ethnic group of the Kingdom of Nanzhao (now the Province of Yunnan), to explicate the characteristics of the borderland songs by comparing them with the poems of Manyo-shu.
