하야시 기탄(林義端)의 작품에 나타난 창작의도 고찰 ー 아사이 료이(浅井了意) 소설과의 비교를 중심으로 ー
A study on the intention of creation in the Hayashi Gitan’s work ― focused on the comparative study with the Asai Ryoi’s novel ―
There was a heated argument between Confucianism and Buddhism in the early Edo period. This paper considered the intention of Hayashi Gitan's novel that was imitated and influenced by the Asai Ryoi's novel but was written by Buddist way of thinking in the conditon of the history of ideas. Ryoi suggested the superiority of the Buddism by presenting the Consistency of Three Religion outwardly and it was a general method the side of Buddism. Gitan saw through the intention of Ryoi, and he used same method. Gitan advertised his work by emphasazing the influence of Ryoi's novel, but actually he suggested the logic of the thought of loyalty, filial piety, and the denial of strange which is the thought of Confucianism.
