Abstract: In the history of Chinese and Japanese literary exchanges the classical Chinese poetry had a great and obvious influence upon the Japanese poetry written in Chinese, and meanwhile the “students” also had a more or less “repay” to their “teachers” with their homework. This seems to be a phenomenon of “adverse import”. In the viewpoint of two-way interactions in cultural exchanges, the history of Japanese Chinese-written poetry spreading into China can be comprehensively described and commentated so as to find out some “adverse feedbacks” in literary circles. It provides a new perspective of recognition for openness of Chinese literature.

Key words: Japanese Chinese-written poem, cultural exchange, adverse import, two-way interaction, openness
