Rezension von Daniela Ecker in Leselust .
http://www.die-leselust.de/buch/mishima_yukio_maske.htm
Yukio Mishima - Gestndnis einer Maske
Originaltitel: Kamen No Kokuhaku
Roman. Suhrkamp Verlag 1949
151 Seiten, ISBN: 3499156520
Wie merkt, wie erlebt man selbst, dass man anders ist als die Menschen, die einen umgeben? Wann sprt man, dass das Begehren, das man selbst empfindet, von der Umwelt nicht als natrlich angesehen wird? Yukio Mishima erzhlt hier in einem autobiographisch gefrbten, sensiblen Roman von der Entdeckung der eigenen Homosexualitt.
Geboren 1925, wchst der Erzhler hauptschlich in den Rumen seiner Gromutter auf, die ihn schon kurz nach seiner Geburt fr sich beansprucht. Ihr Krankenzimmer, ihr ewiges Leiden frbt ab; auch er selbst ist von Kind an schwchlich, leidet an Selbsttoxikation. Da die Gromutter Lrm nicht ertrug und ihm zudem verboten hatte, mit den Nachbarsjungen zu spielen, bleibt er die meiste Zeit fr sich - und mit seinen Bchern. Prinzen, die einen Heldentod sterben, mglichst blutig und grausam gemetzelt werden faszinieren ihn; nie ist es die Prinzessin, die seine Phantasie anregt. Dass seine Faszination fr Verkleidungen und Rollenspiele von seiner Umwelt kritisch betrachtet wird, merkt er frh; und hier lernt er auch zuerst, seine Interessen, seine Neigungen zu verstecken.
So baut er fr sich eine Maske auf, versteckt, was ihn interessiert. Und versteckt auch das Gefhl, das er fr einen seiner Schulkameraden entwickelt. Dieser ist bereits lter als seine Kameraden, wegen "schlimmer Dinge" aus dem Internat geworfen worden; und er ist bereits ein Mann. Mit einem muskulsen Oberkrper, Achselhaaren und diesem typischen Geruch. Seit dieser Zeit kann der Erzhler kein Begehren mehr fr einen Menschen empfinden, der ihn intellektuell anspricht; Krper muss es sein, animalisch und wild. So sind auch seine Trume; nach wie vor blutig und grausam erregend.

Early life
Mishima's early childhood was greatly influenced by his grandmother, Natsu. She separated Mishima from his family and raised him virtually as her own until he was 12. She was sick with sciatica yet controlled much of his upbringing and limited his interactions with his siblings and parents. A powerful woman prone to violent emotional outbursts, she was vaguely related to an old samurai family and maintained considerable aristocratic pretensions. While she encouraged the young Mishima's interest in the Kabuki , she read French and German and would also entertain him with fairy tales and other fantastic stories. Mishima spent much of his childhood shut indoors, playing with dolls and with his three female cousins. He cared for his Grandmother more frequently as her health worsened, and developed a precocious interest in books.
At 12, Mishima began to write his first stories. He read voraciously the works of

Among his masterpieces is The Temple of the Golden Pavilion (1956). The tetralogy The Sea of Fertility (1965-70) is regarded by many as Mishima's most lasting achievement. As a writer Mishima drew inspiration from pre-modern literature, both Japanese and Western. Mishima ended his brilliant literary career by suicide in 1970. "How oddly situated a man is apt to find himself at the age of thirty-eight! His youth belongs to the distant past. Yet the period of memory beginning with the end of youth and extending to the present has left him not a single vivid impression. And therefore he persists in feeling that nothing more than a fragile barrier separates him from his youth. He is forever hearing with the utmost clarity the sounds of this neighboring domain, but there is no way to penetrate the barrier." (from Runaway Horses Yukio Mishima was born Kimitaka Hiraoka in Tokyo, the son of a government official. Later he changed his name into Yukio Mishima so that his anti-literary father, Azusa, wouldn't know he wrote. The name Yukio can loosely be translated as "Man who chronicals reason." On his father's side Mishima's forebears were peasants, but his ambitious grandfather eventually climbed to the position of the governor of the Japanese colony on the island of Sakhalin. Mishima's mother, Shizue Hashi, came from a family of educators and scholars.

WELCOME TO THE YUKIO MISHIMA WEB PAGE
This web page is devoted to the Japanese writer Yukio Mishima. November 25th 2000 marked the 30th anniversary of his death. Yukio Mishima was one of the most accomplished and celebrated writers to come out of post-war Japan. He has been compared to Ernest Hemingway and Marcel Proust. The subject matter of his books and the specifics of his life caused him to be the source of a great deal of controversy,both in Japan and throughout the world. He has been the subject of several works of literary criticism,at least one biography, and his life was the subject of a film by the filmmaker Paul Schraeder entitled "Mishima:A Life in Four Chapters" .Mishima was the author of hundreds of plays,stories,essays and novels,but he was best known as the author of the "Sea of Fertility Tetralogy". Although he was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for literature three times,the ideas behind both his writings and his life are greatly misunderstood in the west.

The members of the Self-Defense Forces simply laughed at him. Failing in this coup attempt, he killed himself on the spot. His actions generated a furor of interpretation. Some suspected this incident was in reality a pretext to attain his lifelong desire to live and die by the code of the samurai, for whom male bonding and death had the most value. In this interpretation, the Shield Society was merely a vehicle to this end.

Biographical information on Mishima.
http://www.ox.compsoc.net/~simon/simons/historyweb/mishima.html
Yukio Mishima
Pseudonym of Kimitake Hiraoka (1925-1970), Japanese novelist, whose central theme is the dichotomy between traditional Japanese values and the spiritual barrenness of contemporary life. Born in Tokyo, he failed to qualify for military service during World War II and worked in an aircraft factory instead. After the war he studied law and for a short time was employed in the finance ministry. Mishima's first novel, the partly autobiographical Confessions of a Mask (1949; trans. 1958), was widely acclaimed and successful enough to enable its author to become a full-time writer. The Temple of the Golden Pavilion (1956; trans. 1963) portrays a young man obsessed with both religion and beauty; The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea (1963; trans. 1965) is a gruesome tale of adolescent jealousy; and his four-volume epic The Sea of Fertility (1970; trans. 1972-1975), consisting of Spring Snow, Runaway Horses, The Temple of Dawn, and The Decay of the Angel, is about the transformation of Japan into a modern but sterile society. Mishima, who organized the Tatenokai, a society stressing physical fitness and the martial arts, committed ritual suicide. His death was regarded as his final protest against modern Japanese weakness.
