Research on the Inheritance and Dissemination of Japanese Kendo Culture

Throughout history, kendo has always held an important position in the development of Japanese martial arts, and Japanese kendo culture is a representative of Japan's excellent martial arts culture. In today's social development, many excellent cultures are on the verge of extinction. Japanese kendo culture is an excellent traditional culture, so it cannot be allowed to "drift away". It is necessary to conduct systematic research on its inheritance and dissemination. This study systematically analyzed and studied it through methods such as literature review, historical research, and logical induction, and finally reached the following conclusion: 1) The Japanese kendo culture has been passed down and spread through eight routes: within families, between masters and apprentices, geographically, through karma, through religion, through art, through military, and through literary works. 2) Japanese kendo culture has been influenced by many factors in its transmission and dissemination, but in the final analysis, it can be divided into two types: positive and negative factors.

Abstract

Throughout history, kendo has always held an important position in the development of Japanese martial arts, and Japanese kendo culture is a representative of Japan's excellent martial arts culture. In today's social development, many excellent cultures are on the verge of extinction. Japanese kendo culture is an excellent traditional culture, so it cannot be allowed to "drift away". It is necessary to conduct systematic research on its inheritance and dissemination. This study systematically analyzed and studied it through methods such as literature review, historical research, and logical induction, and finally reached the following conclusion: 1) The Japanese kendo culture has been passed down and spread through eight routes: within families, between masters and apprentices, geographically, through karma, through religion, through art, through military, and through literary works. 2) Japanese kendo culture has been influenced by many factors in its transmission and dissemination, but in the final analysis, it can be divided into two types: positive and negative factors.
