Description

[Machine Translation] Born in Kaminoyama City, Yamagata Prefecture in Michinoku, Saito Shigekichi became a master modern poet while his family was pursuing his dream of becoming a doctor. His complete works as a poet, including tanka poems, poetry criticism, research, and essays, are in fifty-six volumes, and he was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit for his brilliance. Inheriting Shiki's theory of sketching from the Negishi school, he developed it into a theory of poetry with a realistic view of reality, and left his own unique mark on classical studies, mainly on the Manyoshu (Anthology of Myriad Leaves). His style of poetry, which began with "Akamitsu," established the true meaning of modernity and resulted in a vast body of works. It is no exaggeration to say that the emergence of the arabesque period in the Taisho era was due to Mokichi's poetry theory and actual works. He was a great poet who combined the local and the universal, the classical and the modern. This is what makes Mokichi so appealing. The achievements Mokichi left behind in the history of modern literature are truly vast.

Description in Japanese

斎藤茂吉 新装版 (Century Books 人と作品) / 片桐顕智/著

斎藤茂吉は、みちのくの山形県上山市在に生まれ、医師を志して一家をなし、かたわら、近代歌人の巨匠となった。歌人としての全業績は、全集五六巻におよび、短歌・歌論・研究・随筆など文化勲章に輝く光彩を放っている。子規の根岸派の写生論を継承して、実相観入の歌論に発展させ、万葉集を主とする古典研究には、独自の足跡を残した。また「赤光」にはじまるその歌風は、真の意味の近代性をうちたて、膨大な作品となった。大正期のアララギ時代の現出は、茂吉の歌論と実作によるものといっても過言ではない。郷土的なものと万有的なもの、古典的なものと近代的なものとを兼備した偉大な歌人であった。そこに茂吉の魅力があるといえよう。茂吉が近代文学史上に残した業績は、まことに広大であるといわざるを得ない。
