to be crushed, once more by the fcudal
SYSTEM as the fcudal lbnrons were far;
too busy killing one another. and ro6plns
and plunderlng others to waste nluch
time on education and literature.
Thus CAME tho period of reaction. whfeh
not only put mn end to all literary ac-
tlvity, but robbed life itself or MI en-
joyment which people were supposed 20
put off t,ntil#the life IN the hereafter, and
for this reason there was great deWaho
for priests and religion.
Tho first monks who reached Japan from
italy nnd Spain and who were received
by the Japanese. brought about another
change Many of the fcudal Darons ana
chiefs became Christians, and churches
were built at Oini and Kioto. This hap
pened about $50 years ago. Europeans
were received In the most friendly lnaii-
ner by the Japanese during tho next
seventy years, and when the feellng to-
ward them later underwent q change at
was due only to the intrlgues OF the
Jesults and the jealousy Of the different
Christian .sects among themselves.
These seventy years OF friendly inter-
course with Europeans were of the great
est Importance to Japanese literature.
The priests did all In their power to
educate tho people, but when the Shotgun
ordered that all foreigners must leave
the country, not only the religious ele-
ment, but the educational element as
well, left us.
Only the Dutch, who had taken sides
with the Shotgun, were allowed to remain
In Nagasaki under certain restrictions.
1t was forbidden to introduce books into
the country, because the Shotgun feared
that these would help to spread the
Christian religion, and thus the Japan-
ese literature was once more cut of from
foreign influence, and during the next
$50 years 1t developed slowly but indc-
pendently.
