Early works of Japanese literature were heavily influenced by cultural contact with China and Chinese literature , and were often written in Classical Chinese. Indian literature also had an influence through the spread of Buddhism in Japan. Before the introduction of kanji from China to Japan, Japan had no writing system; it is believed that Chinese characters came to Japan at the very beginning of the fifth century, brought by immigrants from Korea and China. Early Japanese texts first followed the Chinese model, [2] before gradually transitioning to a hybrid of Chinese characters used in Japanese syntactical formats, resulting in sentences written with Chinese characters but read phonetically in Japanese.
