    Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Yasunari Kawabata (1899-1972) First Japanese novelist, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature (1968). Many of Kawabata's book explore melancholically the place of sex in culture and people's lives. His works combined old Japan's beauty with modernist trends, realism with surrealistic visions. Over the course of his life, Kawabata wrote more than a hundred 'palm-of-the-hand' stories - as the author called them. They were usually two or three pages long, and expressed according to Kawabata the essence of his art. In one of the stories, 'Up in the Tree,' Michiko and Keisuke, both fourth graders, share a secret. Keisuke tells her that his parents quarrel, and his father has another woman. He once climbed a tree in the garden so that his mother couldn't take him and go back to her parents' house. Since then he has been up in the tree a lot. "The "secret" of their being up in the tree had continued for almost two years now. Where the thick trunk branched out near the top, the two could sit comfortably. Michiko, straddling one branch, leaned back against another. There were days when little birds came and days when the wind sang through the pine needles. Although they weren't that high off the ground, these two little lovers felt as if they were in a completely different world, far away from the earth." (from 'Up in the Tree') Yasunari Kawabata was born in Osaka into a prosperous and cultured family. He learned to know loneliness and rootlessness early - he was orphaned at age of three, his grandmother died when he was seven, and his only sister when he was nine. The family deaths deprived Kawabata of normal childhood and some critics has seen that these early traumas formed the background for the sense of loss and regret which run through his writing. In 1920 he started his literature studies at Tokyo Imperial University, and graduated in 1924. With a group of young writers, Kawabata founded the journal

    Extractions: Volume 93, Issue 5 June 3, 1996 Arts review by aaron tyler morris Discovering Asian literature is like an awakening, yet very few writers from Asia have managed to penetrate through to the fickle literary tastes of the west. There is, however, Yasunari Kawabata: Nobel Prize winner and author of the 1956 novel Snow Country. This extraordinary novel reveals the life of a dilettante, Shimamura, vacationing in snowy western Japan, and the lives of his two geishas, Komako and Yoko. The three characters search for love, only to discover that they are incapable of such feeling. Like the characters' inability to feel, the narrative is likewise minimal. At times, Kawabata's prose reads more like haiku than a novel. Subtle, yet rich imagery replaces a complex narrative-"insects smaller than moths gathered on the thick white powder of her neck. Some of them died there as Shimamura watched." Thus, what remains in place of a complex narrative is the bare, yet beautiful essentials which exist largely in the characters' conversations, and the haiku-like images which make up their surroundings, and give insight into their characters. The slightest change in mood, the tiny nuances of the atmosphere, are what make up this extraordinary story. Like haiku poetry, each word is essential to the overall meaning and beauty of the novel.

    Extractions: Datum: Ressort: Magazin Autor: Manuela Reichart Seite: Als er 1972 Selbstmord beging, waren alle ratlos: Kein Abschiedsbrief, keine Erklärung, kurze Zeit vorher war er mit Freunden zusammengewesen, er hatte Verabredungen, Pläne gehabt. Man fand ihn an einem Sonntag abend in seinem Arbeitsapartment, das der 72jährige erst wenige Monate zuvor gekauft hatte, im benachbarten Sommerbadeort seiner Heimatstadt Kamakura. Yasunari Kawabata brachte sich durch das Einatmen von Leuchtgas um. Die einzelnen Kapitel dieser Familiengeschichte, in der es vor allem um die innere Welt des Protagonisten geht, wurden von 1949 bis 1958 in Zeitschriften veröffentlicht. Wie andere Werke Kawabatas auch, war dies kein Vorabdruck, wie wir ihn kennen, vielmehr entstand der Text von Folge zu Folge, wurde überarbeitet und weitererzählt, bis er schließlich als Buch erschien. Kawabata schrieb keine vorher festgelegte Geschichte, sondern entwikkelte den Stoff über Jahre hinweg aus einem Netzwerk verschiedener kurzer Episoden. In diesen Geschichten die so kurz sind, daß sie auf einen Handteller passen würden geht es um stille Empfindungen und irreale Hoffnungen, es sind Miniaturen, hinter denen sich Lebensentwürfe und Lebenslügen, wehmütige Liebessehnsüchte und erotische Obsessionen verbergen. Ein Mann fährt täglich mit dem Zug und beobachtet dabei ein schönes Schulmädchen. Er denkt über sie nach, stattet die Unbekannte in seiner Phantasie mit Herkunft und Geschichte aus, bis er plötzlich Zeuge wird eines Abschieds zwischen ihr und einem älteren Mädchen. Hinter wenigen Zeilen nur verbirgt der Autor eine innige Liebesgeschichte zwischen diesen beiden. In dem Moment der Trennung erkennt man den dauernden Schmerz, der ihr Leben überschatten wird.

    Extractions: a Japanese novelist, born June 11, 1899, in Osaka, and who studied at Tokyo Imperial University, died April 16, 1972. Considered one of the greatest Japanese novelists and first to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature wayback 1968, he won because they cited that his "narrative mastership, which great sensibility expresses the Japanese mind." In the 1920's he was known to be with a group of young writers known as neosensationists , who used lyricism and impressionnism and favored over the prevalent social realism. He began being a standbearer for European expressionism in Japan. He gradually evolved his own painstaking, episodic style. He sometimes made himself concerned in exploring loneliness, that resulted in a remarkable probing of the feminine mind and other exploits of human sexuality. HIs lyricism was shown, beginning with "The Dancing Girl of Izu" and continued with "Snow Country" , that is all about a self-centered businessman, and is best known among Western readers. Other works include, "Thousand Cranes", "The Sound of the Mountain", "The Master of Go", and "The Old Capital". Ill and depressed he took his life in his own hands in 1972.

    Extractions: N ovelista japonés nacido en Osaka, graduado por la Universidad Imperial de Tokio. En la década de los años veinte formó parte de un grupo literario de jóvenes escritores conocido como neosensacionistas, partidarios del lirismo y del impresionismo en lugar del realismo social imperante. Poco a poco fue desarrollando un estilo propio, minucioso y episódico, que se manifiesta en su primera novela, Diario íntimo de mi decimosexto cumpleaños (1925). Con frecuencia se preocupó por la exploración de la soledad y los aspectos que bordean la sexualidad humana. Su novela País de nieve (1947), que trata de un hombre de negocios egocéntrico y su amante geisha, es muy conocida en Occidente. Otras obras suyas son las novelas Mil grullas (1959) y El sonido de la montaña (1970), así como dos volúmenes de relatos que se cuentan entre lo mejor de su obra: La casa de las bellezas durmientes (1961) y Lo bello y lo triste (1965). En 1972 se publicó de forma póstuma la biografía ficticia El maestro de Go , Kawabata fue el primer japonés que ganó el premio Nobel de Literatura en 1968, por su maestría narrativa, que expresa con gran sensibilidad el espíritu japonés. En 1972, enfermo y deprimido, se suicidó. ©
