What is Self: Person Theory
About This Novel
This book is a collection of the core literary thoughts and theories of the new generation of Japanese writer Hirano Keiichiro. After winning the 120th Akutagawa Prize, he successively created works such as "Burial", "Fill the Blank", and "Destroy". Keiichiro Hirano used the concept of "divided humanism" to express the behavior of literary characters and think about people's self-perception. Based on his own life experience and thinking, Hirano started from the English word origin of "individual" step by step, which was interpreted as "indivisible" to mean "individual", and proposed that "individual" cannot be divided in modern times, which has affected people's diversified lives and multi-directional interpersonal relationships. Therefore, he proposed to subdivide the unit of "individual" and put forward the brand-new concept of "dividing people", so that a person can face his true self on different occasions and when facing different people, instead of being simply thought of as showing different "faces" before.
