Akutagawa Ryunosuke lives collide fiercely in the eastern and Western culture era. Affected by the times,his knowledge of the Christian has undergone a process from the shallower to the deeper: from simple attracted by its architecture, statues and other artistic achievements, to produce according to the Christian "God", "the godfather", "the devil", "believers" concept art created interest. "God" image is the core of the Christian culture, but also embodies the key Akutagawa of Christian culture inheritance and innovation, therefore "important breakthrough God" is also on the mouth of Akutagawa Christian thought. The author tries to put the Akutagawa’s "God" with the traditional Western Christian doctrine of the "God" imagecontrast, inheritance and innovation in contrast to reveal the Akutagawa "God" to the Christian "God", and to further explore the Akutagawa the acceptance of Christianity process and acceptance in the different periods of change.Through intensive reading of the text, to the analysis of Akutagawa works in the "God" image of theproperty, and then concludes two kinds of "his works in the image of God": one is in the works as "God" the whole acts as the role of spectator. In this "God" in the image of God, hidden in the plot of the story, characters, often by narrator or character dialogue to reflect its intention. The specific works such as "Tobacca and the Devil", "Death of a christian", "Lucifer", "Evil pope door" and " Ogin". This kind of image is mostly associated with Akutagawa on Christianity examine mentality about, showed his Christian mood complicated contradictions; two is in the works as "God" has been the role of the participants. In this "God" image, although they also did not directly appear, but by the missionaries, Jesus, martyr dialogue, action, make"God" image of integrity, plump. This kind of "change of God" image reflected Akutagawa of Christian understanding and accepting attitude process. For example "The Ogata Ryosai memorandum", "the Wandering Jew" and “smiles of God".The "god" in the western Christian tradition image has diversity and multiple significance. Based on the main attributes, it can be divided into: is god the father, the almighty creator, the defenders of justice, and agree with TongZhi projection subject four types of human nature. And after Christianity spread to Japan, appeared a unique transmission and evolution process, such as western culture and the Japanese traditional thoughts after fusion, produce to the combination of Christian and Confucian cultures for the sort of, the son of god; And like a Christian culture combined with spirit of bushido, produce the "god" as filial object of filial piety; Eventually even appeared a "Christian" schools, etc. After the war, "god’s pain" that opens the Japanese domestic independent thinking of Christianity."God" of the image is created in his work than the traditional western Christian "god" in the image with inheritance, innovation. Description of god’s majesty, reward is distinct character; To show its omnipotence attribute; And on the content, the relationship between god and the martyrs focused particularly on, etc.; Reflect the "god" of Christian tradition the inheritance of the image. Two big innovations mainly reflects in: one is by choice of "god" reflects the collision between east and west culture; Second, using dialectic analysis, the image of god beyond the ethnic and religious re-invention.Finally, the application of relevant principle of imagologie of comparative literature, the writer of the author of "god" image is analyzed. From the perspective of variability and comprehensive summed up the formation of the author’s different image of "god" of different dominant factors, thus summing up the over-all characterister of the image.
