钱氏吴越国与日本的交往及其在中日文化交流史上的地位

五代十国时期,钱氏吴越国积极发展与日本的关系,但日本国对此却持消极的态度,双方的交往主要通过民间进行,局限在经济、文化领域。研究表明,此间中日交流出现了新的动向,即从以前中国方面的单方输出、日本方面的积极接受,开始变为中日双方的双向交流。尽管此时日本的"逆输出"在质和量上都不足道,但这毕竟是值得注意的历史现象,也可称为中日文化交流史上的一个转折点。

An Analysis of the Relationship between the Wuyue State and Japan

During the period of the Five Dynasties and the Ten States, when wars were very common in northern China, only the Wuyue State kept a good relationship with Japan. They continued their exchange in the fields of politics, economy and culture. As for the trade, the trade ships of the Wuyue State played an important role in promoting their intercommunication. The study points out that the relationship experienced a shift from China's unilateral export to bilateral exchange and communication. At that time, Japan had the "trade gap", and the quality and quantity of the export were not considerable. However, it was a new historical phenomenon, which should be noticed as a turning point in the history of the intercommunion between China and Japan.
