About This Novel
Junichiro Tanizaki, the master of Japanese aesthetic literature, writes about his creative experience for future writers, unlocking the key to writing "Praise to the Shadows", "Fine Snow" and "Haru Kotoso". "Article Reader" is a famous work by Japanese aesthetic master Junichiro Tanizaki that discusses article reading and writing skills. It is like three in-depth and simple writing lessons. After the book was published in Japan, it aroused great repercussions. Writers such as Yukio Mishima and Yasunari Kawabata wrote books under the title "Article Reader" to discuss their own views on literary creation. With the perspective of a literary master, the author starts from the characteristics of Japanese language, characters and culture, focusing on "what is an article", "how to improve writing" and "what are the six major elements that constitute an article". Taking examples from Eastern and Western classics as evidence, the author discusses how Japanese language and characters can give full play to their advantages in creation so that they can express their ideas smoothly and brilliantly. Among them, "The Great Learning" and Tang poetry are quoted many times to analyze the works of Chinese literati and emphasize the implicit beauty of literature. This book is translated by the famous Japanese translator Lai Mingzhu. Together with Tanizaki's masterpiece "Ode to Shadow", it forms a complete puzzle of Japanese aesthetics.
