ABSTRACT
In the few studies on Japanese scholar's political identity, an evaluation of Asianism, exoticism and Orientalism, and colonialism were included. The author believes that the term "Asianism" is the most accurate to use in identifying and determining pre-Second World War Japanese architectural research. Ernst Boerschmann's research helps to promote the study of Chinese-architecture researchers. The study of Chinese history has occupied a significant place in the study of Oriental history during the Meiji period, and its importance is seen by the investigation of architectural relics. This scholarship was followed by a symposium, Ernst Boerschmann and early Research in Traditional Chinese Architecture, held at the Berlin University of Technology in January 2011. Clearly understanding Asianism in Japanese scholarship is thus critical in order to comprehend the value of historical documents for Chinese heritage conservation. Tadashi Sekino's assistant, Sekino discovers the Dule Temple on his way to the East Imperial Mausoleums of the Qing Dynasty.
