ABSTRACT

This article is aimed for the research on Shimazaki Toson's Literature, in terms of analysing his Japanese modern poetry focused on the receptiveness of the Western European Literature, This thesis is emphasized on the analysis of the transfigurations of words, expressions, and thoughts in 「Preface To The Lyrical Ballads」W.Wordsworth in the course of receptivity and modification of it As a concrete research measure, at first, it was to pursue the Western European literature traces, secondly, to clear the traces origin from whose and what works. So as to do those analyses, it was to turn efforts toward Toson's autobiography novel, Sakura no mi no jukusuru toki〔버찌가 읽을 무렵〕to select his favorite writer and works, to compare Toson's verses' lyric frame with 「Preface To The Lyrical Ballads」 and to find out parallels and similar plot and frame of them, and the distinct relationship between modern way of thinking in Japanese Meiji Period. As a result of that, in Toson's poetry, the Western European thoughtful and philosophical language turned into the natural native Japanese beyond the limit of the characteristic of emotional Japanese language. All things considered, Toson is a more writer, than a critic or a theoretician, who utilizes and exploits aggressively for his literature activity and his self-realization and pursuit-identity, in terms of diffusing the Japanese culture, adapting and modifying and receiving the lyricism of W.Wordsworth's poetry.
