This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attri- bution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. The recent release by Criterion on DVD of Paul Schrader’s film Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters (1985) and Mishima’s own film Patriotism (1965) has caused the author of this essay to reconsider his relation- ship with the late Japanese writers’ books and literary legacy. Believing that these fine films’ presence on DVD will stimulate much renewed discussion of Mishima both in the US and Japan, the author recalls his first discovery of Mishima’s existence shortly after his famous suicide in 1970, reading and responding to his literary output, and prodding famous authors such as Tennessee Williams and Cormac McCarthy for their thoughts on Mishima’s influence. The author’s two poems about Mishima are included to illustrate his changing inner perceptions of the internationally famous writer and the (now-fading) adverse reaction to his work in Japan caused by his politics and his virtually public suicide. Keywords: Mishima; Japanese Literature Many readers probably remember that Yukio Mishima (1925- girls (Piven, 2004: p.

    Pioneering in Japan David Love In Japan, the problem of matching domestic agricultural development and capacity with the needs of a fast-growing in- dustrial economy is a continu- ing one.

Not for Redistribution Pioneering in Japan OKYO, OSAKA, YOKOHAMA—the T names of these great cities are familiar throughout the world as symbols of booming, industrial Japan. Very few people outside Japan, however, have ever heard of a township called Naka-Shibetsu, which is enjoying a dif- ferent kind of boom, far away from the smok- ing, hustling cities of the island of Honshu. Naka-Shibetsu is on the eastern coast of the snow-capped northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. It is minuscule in relation to Osaka and Yokohama. And its growth and upsurging commercial activity are only indirectly con- nected with the great industrial drive of the south.

  • Alienation in the Novels of Yukio Mishima
    Alienation in the Novels of Yukio Mishima David W. Atkinson, The University of Lethbridge Few novelists dominate twentieth-century Japanese fiction as does Yukio Mishima. Born on January 14,1925 to an upper middle-class family in Tokyo, Yukio Mishima distinguished himself early as a brilliant student, graduating from Gakushuin or Peers' School in 1944. While still in school, Mishima pub­ lished his first significant work Hanazakari no Mori (1941; The Florest in Full Flower), which expresses many of the ideas and influences that had a continu­ ing impact on Mishima's writing throughout his life. While Mishima produced over twenty-five pieces of major fiction, as well as short stories, plays, and criti­ cal works, it was not his writing that initially drew him to the world's attention. Frustrated by the lack of spiritual values in Japanese society, as well as a gen­ eral erosion of Japanese influence and strength, Mishima committed seppuku or ritual suicide on November 25,1970.1 For a time, Mishima's literary works were the subject of intense psycho­ analysis, as critics looked to find reasons for his extraordinary final act. To ap­ proach Mishima only in this way, however, is to do him a disservice, for Mishima stands as a major spokesman for a Japan experiencing immense so­ cial and cultural dislocation. In this regard, Mishima very often seems divided, as he at once celebrates the glory of the past and condemns the stagnation and meaninglessness of traditional values. In one way, however, Mishima is very clear: he sees a Japanese society that is stultifying to individual freedom.

  • THE SEA of FERTILITY, by Yukio Mishima Mary Ryan Yukio Mishima's Tetralogy*, the Sea of Fertility, Offers Westerners a Cultural
    3 THE SEA OF FERTILITY, by Yukio Mishima Mary Ryan Yukio Mishima's tetralogy*, The Sea of Fertility, offers Westerners a cultural and historical view of Japan lll the b1entieth century that is probably unobtainable elsewhere, except through scholarly study. This series traces the development of modern Japan from 1912 through the late 1960's. Each novel concentrates on a different era and crises in the history of that country. Yet through­ out unification is achieved not merely through chronology. Mishima ciscusses the cultural conflicts between old imperial Japan and modern westernized Japan through his characters: Kiyoaki's alternate attraction to and rejection of the aristocracy in the person of Satoka; Isao's assassination coup against the rising industrial elite; and Honda's inner philosophical/sensual dichotomy. Uniting all is the Buddhist philosophy of reincarnation. These novels intertwine so many concepts, symbols, and dreams that it is impossible to render anything but a bare sketch of the themes an<~ characters. In Spring Snmv (my personal favorite) one is introduced to Kiyoaki Matsugae, son of a "noveau richc" samurai family; Satoka Ayakuras, daughter of an old but declining noble family, and to Shigekuni Honda, the narrator, member of a middle class family, and ~onfidant of Kiyoaki. Kiyoaki is raised by the Ayakuras to forward his family's prestige. This is the basis of his alternately loving and hating relationship with Satoka. Not until her engagement to a prince is announced does Kiyoaki realize the extent of his passion. They have an intense, doomed affair that form~ a link through the tetralogy.
