Outer factors, such as the Western discourse, have played a significant role in the history of the perception of Japanese gardens. This paper examines how these outer factors, including the Western discourse that arose in the late nineteenth century, had an impact on the way gardens are perceived and howtheir authenticity is defined and constructed in Japan. The essay also analyzes the reaction of Japanese scholars to such Western discourse. The aim of this paper is to untangle the structure in which the Western discourse and Japanese response have intermingled with one another. In so doing, the essay clarifies what kind of impact this intermingling structure has had on the perception of Japanese gardens and on defining their authenticity. Authors who have written on Japanese gardens, such as Josiah Conder, Shigemori Mirei and other scholars of Japanese gardens are closely examined. What kind of roles have the Western discourse and Japanese response played in the perception of and defining the authenticity of Japanese gardens ?
