Shadow, Women and Romance: Junichiro Tanizaki (ten Lectures by Famous Japanese Literary Masters 02)

About This Novel

The standard-bearers of literature in the 20th century were also laggards of their respective eras. "Classic Reader" Yang Zhao's ten-lecture series on Japanese literary masters: Using literature, listen to their struggles and answers. This volume's "classic reader" Yang Zhao × "the aesthetic master hidden in the corner of the great era" Junichiro Tanizaki: Writing all the way without echoing any era is his most remarkable achievement. From the "demonist" fantasy writing to the classical aesthetics of "Snow", passion that is not accepted and should not exist under collective standards will not really disappear from human reality. This is Tanizaki's basic creative attitude in his 50-year writing career. He spent 30 years and translated "The Tale of Genji" three times, which inspired him to create a unique "shadow aesthetic" writing, and then created a lifetime classic work "Snow". When the whole society was forced to sing for war, in his writing, the daughters of the Makoka family still cared about love, singing and dancing, catching fireflies, and admiring flowers. Are war, bushido, militarism, etc. Really more representative of Japan and closer to the Japanese people than their lives?
