A Study Of The "Poetry Road" Between China And Ryukyu In Qing Dynasty

From the early Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty,the history of the Ryukyu Kingdom was also a history of cultural exchanges influenced by and interacting with Chinese civilization.This archipelago is far away from the East China Sea on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean.Its interaction with the Ming and Qing Dynasties may be more worthy of exploration than the traditional countries such as North Korea and Vietnam.Ryukyu Chinese poetry,as a literary style that has been cultivated together by mainland civilization and marine civilization,has its unique aesthetic characteristics and artistic value.In the historical period of more than 500 years,the two countries exchanged messengers between the vast Chinese land and the vast East China Sea.Ryukyu contributed twice in two years,with a tribute team of up to 200 people;and the Ming and Qing Dynasties sent to the Ryukyu’s encyclopedia team to a maximum of 600 people.In fact,the main body of the association between China and Ryukyu in the Qing Dynasty was the class of scholars of both sides.The poets in the missions of the two countries frequently travel in the East Asian seas.Beyond the historical archives,poetry is an important carrier to describe this fact and is easy to spread.The Ryukyu poet crossed the ocean and landed in Fujian.The boat traveled to Jiangnan and arrived north to Yanjing.The Chinese messenger went in the opposite direction.This road,running through the north and south,across the sea and land,is destined to be full of adventures and activate the poet’s sensitive brushstrokes.For the country,it is the mission of the monarch.For the poet itself,it is a rare opportunity for a lifetime.The pages left by the poets of the two countries on this long "Yan Xing" or "Angel Road" are vivid and interesting,full of chapters of joy and sorrow,and are clues to our understanding of politics and economic exchanges at that time.It is enough to open our imagination of the East Asian cultural exchanges during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.This article takes the road of the Chinese and the ambassadors as the field of vision,with the poetry / article reflecting the exchanges between the two countries as the carrier,and extends the influence in this context.This is the three dimensions that this article adheres to.The connotation and extension of the research object involved are as follows:In the Qing Dynasty,the Ryukyu Mission and the Ryukyu tribute mission were enacted,especially the road to the tribute of the poets of both sides.This article is not intended to be a historical interpretation of the route,but based on historical documents,focusing on the poets and poetry that once lived on the route.The chapters on "The Road of the Ryukyu of the Poets of the Qing Dynasty" and "The Road of the Chinese of the Ryukyu Poets" will be discussed.Poetry road is further extended to the cultural exchange activities of the Chinese poets using poetry as the medium.The time and space background of this exchange is no longer limited to the tribute road,but can be related to poetry selection and dissemination.The emissaries of both sides and the Ryukyu students were presented with Chinese poetry.The Korean and Annan emissaries from the East Asian tributary system also joined it.In the paper,the chapters of "The Poetry of High Qing Poets","The Friends of Ryukyu Poets in China",and "The Selection and Dissemination of Chinese Poetry in Ryukyu" will be elaborated.The exchanges between China and Ryukyu undoubtedly had a wide and far-reaching impact on the political,economic and cultural aspects of the two sides.At that time,the sovereign state of the sovereign state clearly had a greater impact on the culturally low subsidiary,Ryukyu.This influence is prominent in many fields such as the creation of Chinese poetry,the education of Confucianism,and even the selection of scholars.In the early 19 th century,China and Japan competed in the Ryukyu and Ryukyu Baiyun poem appeared.This chapter will be discussed in detail in the chapters of "Ryukyu Confucianism Education and Test Post Poems" and "The Ryukyu Baiyun Poems in the East Asian Vision".On the basis of the current academic research results,this paper continues to collect relevant poetry literature extensively,analyzes the historical literature,focuses on the historical facts of the poetry in the Qing Dynasty,and analyzes the development of the Chinese poetry in the Qing Dynasty.Try to restore the scenes of poetry communication and fully reveal the process and influence of poetry communication.The main features and innovations of this thesis are that the poetry and poet in the process of cultural exchanges between the Qing and Ryukyu are the main object of investigation.Comprehensively and objectively revealing the cultural value of poetry in the process of exchanges between the two countries.Trying to show the existence of the "Poetry road" in the cultural exchanges between the two sides in addition to the "Silk road" of ocean trade,and enrich the history and culture connotation of the "Belt and Road" construction.In addition,this article respects and inherits the current achievements of the academic community.Attempts to avoid repeating rumors on this basis,and strive for new perspectives and new materials.On the accumulation of poetry research in the Qing Dynasty,the author used Wang Shizhen and Wang Ji as the entry points to express the concern for the extraterritorial world of the scholars at the time.From the perspective of the "others" of the Ryukyu poets,observed the Chinese poetry and even the social scene.It has the complementary advantage of the "other" vision.This will help to research the poetry and social development in the Qing Dynasty more objectively and comprehensively.In the process of documentation,a new poetry that records the poetry exchanges between the two sides is unclear for today’s academic circles and will be disclosed in the paper.
