>>24853698>classical Japanesethat would be something like Sei Shonagon and Basho.
>>24853698the what?
The thing that makes Japs like Dazai, Akutagawa and Mishima interesting is their knowledge of, and use of techniques found in Western literature, combined with an honest appraisal of certain uncomfortable Japanese cultural issues.It's Proust in a Kimono, Kafka at the Kabuki.
>>24853698As everyone else has told you Akutagawa is not classical.Spinning gears is one of the great short stories though.
