| 摘要 | Zen-sect Buddhist monasteries were major intellectual and artistic centers of Japan in the 14th and 15th centuries. When the Japanese introduced the doctrines of Ch'an Buddhism from China in the late 12th and early 13th centuries, they also imported the highly sophisticated and distinctive architectural modes of temple construction prevalent in the Hangchou area of the Southern Sung. At first carefully imitating continental building designs and monastic layouts, the Japanese gradually modified the prototypes to suit their own institutional needs, architectural traditions, and aesthetic tastes. This dissertation investigates the process of adoption and adaptation of Chinese architectural modes in Japan between 1200-1500 and explores the reasons for change. Using archival materials, illustrations of now-destroyed structures, and restoration reports on extant buildings, this dissertation traces the development of Zen monastic architecture from its roots in China to its fruition in Japan during the 15th century. Emphasis is placed on Tofuku-ji in Kyoto as a case-study because it is the only large-scale Zen temple complex erected before 1600 to survive into modern times. Several of Tofuku-ji's wooden structures are the only examples in China or Japan of once common building types. Many documents in its archives are unique records for the construction and reconstruction of a major monastery. With such evidence, Tofuku-ji's various changes in configuration can be carefully chronicled, and the monastery complex is of fundamental art historical importance. |
