Everything Japan took from china was “filtered through the basically different Japanese temperament”- a process continuing today in the face of Western influences.

- 17. • By tradition all the female roles are taken by men, an masks help them in this deceptions. • Many of the plays are derive from ancient myths and legends, usually tragic. • Emotionally important scenes are in prose; the climaxes to these are in poetry.
- 18. The play themselves may be melodramas, situations comedies or even tragedies, but it should not be forgotten that they often reflected reality and contained social or political commentary.
