KEN’YUSHA

KEN’YUSHA
   The Ken’yusha (Friends of the Ink Stone), the first modern Japanese writers’ society, was founded in 1885 by Ozaki Koyo. Other members included Kawakami Bizan, Yamada Bimyo, Ishibashi Shian (1867–1927), and Maruoka Kyuka (1865–1927). Ozaki’s classicism heavily influenced the works of member Izumi Kyoka and was widely published in the Yomiuri newspaper. While championing naturalism and realism, the group introduced Western styles and themes in a venue outside the traditional publishing firms. Famous works by Ozaki that represent the spirit of the Ken’yusha include Konjiki yasha (1897–1903; tr. The Gold Demon, 2005) and Tajo takon (Passions and Regrets, 1896). The group disbanded shortly after Ozaki’s death in 1903.
