The years 1906–12, that is to say, the final part of the Meiji period, are widely recognised as one of the most significant turning-points in the history of Japanese literature. Traditionally this period has been seen as the time when the naturalist movement occupied a central position. Writers such as Shimazaki Tōson (1872–1943) and Tayama Katai (1871–1930) contributed to the development of this movement with their novels, while Shimamura Hōgetsu (1871–1918) and others furnished it with critical works.KeywordsArmy CorpsCultural PerspectiveGeneral StaffCherry BlossomMeiji PeriodThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
