Sociological Study of the Jodo Culture : A Change of Style of Buddhist Sculpture from the Era of Heian to Kamakura
Today, Buddhist sculpture is booming in Japan. The Newspaper and the magazine are focusing on various kinds of the sculptures every day. Such a boom is not a new phenomenon. Some times, we remember the Buddhist sculpture romantically or reexamine it scientifically. However, the boom of today may be a new phenomenon. The youth came to feel a Buddhist sculpture to be comical or casual. Of course it is positively. Needless to say, there are many images about Buddhist sculpture or the ways of reception of it. It would be connected with the flexible attitude of Japanese to the acceptance of Buddhist sculpture. When Buddhism was transmitted in Japan, the Japanese observed the Buddhist sculpture as exotically. And we produced various Buddhist sculptures. In fact, such a behavior which appeared in the Japanese history is resembled to the youth of today. In a sense the exotic eyes of modern people for the Buddhist sculptures are the same as the first surprise when they watched it. The Japanese Buddhism culture started from that surprise. In conclude, I would say that there is a possibility of a new development of Buddhism culture in our age.
