词条 Yoshikawa Eiji
释义
Yoshikawa Eiji
Japanese novelist
pseudonym of Yoshikawa Hidetsugu
born Aug. 11, 1892, Kanagawa prefecture, Japan
died Sept. 7, 1962, Tokyo
Japanese novelist who achieved the first rank among 20th-century writers both for his popularized versions of classical Japanese literature and for his own original novels.
Because of his father's failure in business, Yoshikawa received only a primary-school education, and his early years were difficult. In 1925 he published Kennan jonan (“Troubles with Swords and Women”), and his position as a writer was established with Naruto hichō (1926–27; “A Secret Record of Naruto”). Later, in the romantic tradition, he wrote some light novels, but gradually he turned to a more serious exploration of the human character; he achieved a kind of perfection with the historical novel Miyamoto Musashi (1935–39; Musashi), dealing with the life of a famous samurai. Later he tried to penetrate more deeply into the lives of Japanese historical figures in Shin Heike monogatari (1950–57; The Heike Story) and Shihon taihei-ki (1958–61; “A Private Book of War History”). Yoshikawa's exquisite style, his psychological insight, and his knowledge of history brought him a broad range of readers. In 1960 he became the first popular author to receive the Order of Cultural Merit.
