“To Winter” Chapter 8,To Winter 8, 2015
It’s a completely different feeling that resonates with my depth, which overlaps with that kind of feeling for Tokyo.But
An unfortunate encounter was waiting for me in a foreign language. Tsuguo Ando, a poet and French literary scholar pregnancy
It was an encounter with.
In the humanities field of the general education subject of the first year, I chose “literature” without hesitation. AndoSecond-rate
I didn’t know the name of the man teacher at all. But as soon as he started listening to the lecture,Gi
I came to think that there was the literature I was looking for here. Lecture soon、
Moved from a large classroom to a medium classroom. The teacher’s lecture was not like taking notes.death
Therefore, I still cannot reproduce the big flow of the lecture in myself. but,speak
The cross section of righteousness is still engraved in my memory, like a piece of poetry.
In today’s Japanese literature, there is little to see in criticism, the teacher clearly states.rice field
Also, “Just Kenichi Yoshida’s” Fun of Literature “Kawade Shobo 1967. You should read this.tree
It’s one of the few books. ” For the first time here, I am a completely unknown sentence called Kenichi Yoshida.study
I knew the name of the person. From there, Tetsutaro Kawakami, who became Kenichi Yoshida’s teacher after returning from England.What
Stretches straight.
In the summer of 1967, when the university was on summer vacation, I went to Kanda and went around the old bookstore street, and Kenichi Yoshida’s book.of
looked for. Then, at some second-hand bookstores, Kenichi Yoshida’s collection of books by Tarumizu Shobo was published at the store.To
I learned that it is sold in a similar form. This collection of books is very carefully made, hemp cormorant
Tenkin was pressed with a hard cover covered with a soft cloth, and the paper quality was a little thin and the binding was beautiful in print.。
The price was flat, and I think it was 280 yen per book. Kenichi Yoshida still exists in Kanda,Ru
It was clear that there was not enough recognition in the literary market. I have a different collection of books Ru
I bought all the books. The new book “Beggar Prince” was also sold as a Zokki book.height
I bought it. Kenichi Yoshida is wearing a doterra in front of the stove on the folded part of the back cover.so
There was a photo on it. I ask myself many times what the essence of literature is But
I continued reading while being fascinated by the smooth and unique style.
I want to return to a foreign language, a day of dazzling early summer before summer vacation.oh
Already. In front of the lawn square that entered the main gate of a foreign language, I came in contact with Mr. Ando, and I wasn’t sure about it.Zu
The teacher’s own book, “Development of Contemporary Poetry, Augmented Edition” introduced by the teacher in the lecture.』
I told you that I bought and read Shichosha 1967. The teacher is a strange fresh man Of course
I wasn’t surprised by the words, and I was a little disappointed, saying, “That’s a good book.”When
He was happy to respond to me. I was already reading the teacher’s poetry book at that time oh
I didn’t mention that at this time. “Green night in June” “CALENDRIER”』
“People call it anti-song.”I was able to talk to a poet for the first time in my life,cormorant
I thought.
With “Development of Modern Poetry, Augmented Edition”, I get a little bit of where the literature I seek is.reason
I was able to understand. It is decisive by reaching Kenichi Yoshida and Tetsutaro Kawakami.When
became.Ando-sensei was just my literary teacher.
“Development of Modern Poetry, Augmented Edition” was published on April 15, 1967, and as soon as I entered a foreign language、
It was also guided by literature in this year.The part I read repeatedly at that time was “Expanded version.』
It was the “Poetry Review” (1965-2-1967 / 3 Yomiuri Shimbun) inserted in. 376Page
It was a feature-length film, ranging from 431 pages to 431 pages.It inspires my youth cormorant
The text was just a prose poem and shimmered.
“Poetry, after all, requires a number of works if it is an exchange of minds between concentric people.devil
stomach. ”
“I’m not interested in Rambo’s book.”
“Only write poetry when you need it.”
Professor Ando quotes a passage from Shinjiro Kurahara’s poetry collection “Iwao”.
“The wind is blowing from the direction of the village
The fox is a fox
Being in the shadow of existence
I ran towards the village
Thus
The fox also attacked a white chicken. ”
“In the first place, there is no such thing as a promise in Japanese postwar poetry.”
“So whatever you do, just find the format that best suits your work.When
is. Modern poetry hasn’t started anywhere for me. “
“As far as Japan is concerned, line-breaking poetry loses its inevitability in the generations around Kaneko and Nishiwaki.Tsu
It is my point of view. Young modern poetry thinks about it first.of
Take an adventure in finding a form. ”
The following words from the teacher, almost unknowingly, determine the direction of my life.stomach
Now, I can assure you without any doubt.
“We will study whatever we do to the extent that we can match the height of the culture that has survived.cormorant
You need to bring it in. Writing one or two poems and novels that are not stupid as an excuse to do that Nu
Thing. “
“No matter how terrible your language skills are, it doesn’t matter.palce
(Learn one language to read just one line of poetry) Read the poem in the original language, “
“Poetry Review” ends with the following sentence.
“Yuji Kinoshita is like a lark for the rest of his life, without war and without the illness that killed him.To
It’s probably a mistake to keep singing brightly. A poet with qualities like him But
In order to survive during and after the war, it was necessary to have a very small poetry pattern called haiku.When
I don’t care if it’s good or bad now, but I think it needs to be clarified. ”
Mr. Ando’s haiku teacher was Mr. Shuson Kato. He later, with Makoto Ooka and Saiichi Maruya,Song
He was winding a sage. The utterance of the teacher Takebayashi in the Shinchosha magazine “Nami” is wonderful.Tsu
rice field. It’s a pity that I can’t remember exactly now.
These days were the decisive encounters with literature in me. Decide my literary way of life Certainly
It can be said that it was done. Even though I lived by tracing the words of my teacher ancestor
Not so different. Poetry shows the future. That was the definition of a poet. I’ll look at the teacheroh
Already.
I once wrote about poets and modern times.

I visited the teacher’s home in early spring near the end of the foreign language year of 1968.。
I didn’t make any contact, but the teacher warmly welcomed me. TRUE teeth
I’m sure it was a nuisance, but did you think that you were a unavoidable young man?and

I got it. However, all the content spoken was harsh. The attitude of the teacher to live Me
Witnessed. The teacher lived exactly the same as “Poetry Review”.
I repeated the teacher’s poetry collection “CALENDRIER” Eureka, 1960, 1960, from that time.death
I read it, and some of it is still in Soranji. My favorite poem is this one-year calendar poetry
It was the poem “Inscription” of August Aout in the collection. The full text is quoted here.
“Inscription

Sweat down in a place like this
Is it because I want to keep a poem?
Among those who are similar
I gave birth to a one-wheeled child who was never born

The dead are not great. “
