by Li Wei
About This Novel
Since the 1920s, with the arrival of Yosano Akiko, Mori Michiyo and others in China and the publication of related works, women began to appear in the field of China-related writing that was originally "exclusively dominated" by Japanese male writers. The climax of Japanese female writers coming to China occurred after Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China in 1937. Nobuko Yoshiya, Fumiko Hayashi, Yoko Ohta, Haruko Ushijima, Kikueda Koizumi, Inoko Sata, Shigure Hasegawa and others came to China one after another and created a large number of literary works. Based on an overall review of Japanese female writers' opportunities to come to China, their footprints in China, and their works related to China, this book mainly conducts case studies focusing on specific writers' war writings.
