Aoki Masaru (1887-1964) is one of the earliest scholars who study on Chinese traditional literature. This paper is focused on Aoki's Etymological Studies. His research method is comparing sound, shape and meaning from a large number of examples, to prove the change of name and object, and the reason of the isolation of the name and object of China and Japan. His research on Etymological Studies originated from his interest in Chinese customs, therefore, his research object mainly focuses on the name and object of China and Japan. While evaluating the positivism of its research, we can also find that most of its research is of its own interest.
