| Research Abstract |
In this research, we tried to grasp synthetically the publishing company of the Taisho and Showa term, and a literary trend. In particular, a publishing company called Kinseido was observed. Masuo Fukuoka founded this publishing company in the middle of Taisho, and it had deep relation with literary activities of those days and writers. And many interesting series and magazines were published. First, we performed investigation and collection in the library or the antiquarian bookshop, in order to store the fundamental data about the publication of Kinseido. And the database of the Kinseido publication was created. This is still insufficient and it is necessary to continue investigation from now on also. However, this data has a big meaning as fundamental data for considering the publication activities of Kinseido. Moreover, we collected the data about the publication activities of Masuo Fukuoka, a founder, and Kinseido. From these data, the publication activities of Kinseido were able to be considered synthetically and on many sides. By these trials, the actual condition of the publication activities of Kinseido became clear concretely. And the relation between a publishing company and a writer also became clear. We are one side of such investigation and wrote the paper about publication of the Taisho and Showa term, and literature. The head investigator mainly announced the relation between the "literary world" from Taisho to the Showa term, and literary comment. The investigator mainly announced the relation between neosensualist's writers and publication media. We were sure of the validity of this theme. We are planning extending investigation and research about other publishing company and publishers based on this research.
