| Research Abstract |
Utakata no ki by Mori Ogai and Trends in the German Art World, with Special Reference to the Painters of Munich. (Title) When Ogai was in Munich, the Modernist Art Movement was just erupting, and the existing structure of the art world, dominated by the Academy, was losing its hold. A clear understanding of these circumstances surrounding the young Ogai prompts the observation that the characters in Utakata no ki are trying to remove themselves from the Academy. Those characters all head off to Lake Starnberg. In fact, young painters in search of new forms of expression did gather in that very area. This article re-examines the story in the context of these artistic and cultural developments.
