从中国的文献看日本的竹岛主张

从中国自唐代以来的文献记录我们可以发现,在中韩日三国的近海都曾存在着被称为＂竹岛＂的岛屿。在韩国的西海岸有被称为＂竹岛＂的岛屿,其东海岸的郁陵岛也曾被称为＂竹岛＂;而在日本鹿儿岛附近也有被称为＂竹岛＂的岛屿。因此＂竹岛＂这一名称是一个再普通不过的名称。现由韩国实际控制的独岛（竹岛）附近海域在历史上是韩国渔民的传统渔场,日俄战争时日本政府才乘机将其改称为＂竹岛＂并划归岛根县管辖。所谓＂竹岛＂是日本固有领土的主张根本站不住脚。

The Historical Records Found in China and Japan's View on Tokdo

Historical records even back to Tang Dynasty of China show that some off-shore islands of China,Korea and Japan has had the same name as＂ZhuDao＂（＂Tokdo＂in Korean and＂Takeshima＂in Japan）.For example,there is a＂Tokdo＂to the west coast of Korea,and Ulleung-do was also called＂Tokdo＂.Meanwhile the neighboring island to Kagoshima is called＂Takeshima＂too.The surrounding waters of Tokdo is the traditional fishing ground of Korea,which was renamed as Takeshima and governed by Shimane of Japan during the Japan-Russia War.Therefore,the viewpoint that＂Tokdo＂is an inherent territory of Japan is untenable.
