With the Meiji Restoration in 1868, Japan opened its doors to the
West and underwent remarkable changes as it sought to become a
modern nation. Accompanying the political changes that Western
trade ushered in were widespread social and cultural changes.
Newspapers, novels, poems, and plays from the Western world were
soon adapted and translated into Japanese. The combination of the
rich storytelling tradition of Japan with the realism and modernism
of the West produced some of the greatest literature of the modern
age. Historical Dictionary of Modern Japanese Literature and
Theater presents a broad perspective on the development and history
of literature narrative, poetry, and drama in modern Japan. This
book offers a chronology, introduction, bibliography, and over 400
cross-referenced dictionary entries on authors, literary and
historical developments, trends, genres, and concepts that played a
central role in the evolution of modern Japanese literature."
