Abstract
Later modern thinker Tsuda Soukichi was a highly regarded China expert in modern Japan, well known for his despise of Chinese culture. He was also a student of the famous empiricist Hiratori Kurakichi. The literature therefore ignores how Soukichi had distinguished himself from his mentor. His importance continues today due to his critical view on Shinto. This paper will take the note of the distinction between the teacher and the student. It will try to locate Soukichi in the literature on sinology as well as Japanese historiography. It also introduces new perspectives on Soukichi's overall research orientation in order to provide a background to the Chinese literature on Soukichi, which is primarily and, therefore, insufficiently about his negative views on China.
