Academia has shed much light on topics such as the methods, history, influence, preservation, and utilization of Han literature introduced to Japan. This study focused on the Japanese accumulation of Song literary collections and examined the implication of "acceptance" contained therein. First, with Bu Ke Qi Jun Ren, Yuan Er Bian Yuan, Rui Qi Zhou Feng, Hu Guan Shi Lian, and Ce Yan Zhou Liang as representatives, records of Han literature maintained by numerous monks were selected for detailed analysis to infer and identify which Song dynasty works were of value and uncover their importance. Second, literature collections and rare books collected by Japan were presented in a tabular form with respect to dimensions such as the number of editions collected, number of books collected, authors, and the presence of block prints from the Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty for comparison and observation. The Japanese collection of Han literature was used to reflect the Japanese perspective of accepting Song dynasty literature with a view to alerting literati with prominent reputations in other fields who have neglected the history of traditional Chinese literature to rethink their literary positions.
