Oe Kenzaburo (1935-PresentNobel Prize, 1994) Oe Kenzaburo was not one of the "big five" 20th century Japanese novelists I was meeting in the course I took in 1973. Abe Kobo made it (though still alive), in part, because he was the professor's dissertation subject. But Oe, who is younger than I am (was not yet forty then) did have the beginning of a reputation among readers of Japanese fiction in English translation, based largely on a single novel at that time, A Personal Matter , the story of a man, Bird, who must come to terms with, first, the responsibilities of being married at all, thenthe central action of the bookhow to deal with the birth of a deformed child, who seems like a monster to him. I read this novel that summer, and was made uncomfortable by the way the psychology of the problem was handled (the basic problem of the deformed child Oe has evidently handled very well in his own life). I guess my problem was that I didn't find Bird a sympathetic characterdidn't like himso didn't go looking for more Oe to read. This novel had been translated by John Nathan, who tells the story of how he lost Mishima as a friend and client for translation (he had translated Mishima's

En "Una cuesti�n personal" Kenzaburo O�, como genio y Dios crea un ser vivo inolvidable utilizando s�lo letras: el atormentado Bird. Kenzaburo O� habla sobre el paso (que yo no espero dar nunca) que dan las personas para convertirse en adultos: el momento en que renuncian a luchar, con pasi�n, por sus sue�os y, extra�amente, se sienten bien. La novela comienza cuando Bird est� a punto de hacer realidad el sue�o de su vida (un viaje a �frica). Sin embargo su esposa da a luz un ni�o deforme que, seg�n las previsiones, pasar� en coma toda su vida. Bird se enfrenta entonces a una existencia encadenado a un hijo vegetal , situaci�n que le lleva a pensar que, quiz�, lo mejor sea estrangularlo. Con el apoyo de su amante, Himiko, comenzar� un recorrido por los infiernos que le conducir� hasta su salvaci�n personal . Si buscabais un buen libro que leer, aqu� lo ten�is. Naci� el 31 de enero de 1935 en la ciudad de Ose, en Jap�n. All� vivi� su ni�ez, en medio de la II Guerra Mundial. De 1954 a 1958 estudi� en la Universidad de Tokio literatura francesa, gradu�ndose con una tesis sobre Jean Paul Sartre. En 1958 recibi� el premio Akutagawa por su narraci�n

Oe has often dealt with marginal people and outcasts and isolation from individual level to social and cultural levels. Another central theme as in the works of a number of other Japanese writers is the conflict between traditions and modern Western culture. " My observation is that after one hundred and twenty years of modernisation since the opening of the country, present-day Japan is split between two opposite poles of ambiguity. I too am living as a writer with this polarisation imprinted on me like a deep scar." (from Nobel Lecture, 1994) Kenzaburo Oe was born in a mountain village on the island of Shikoku, the smallest of the four main Japanese islands, where his family had lived for centuries. The village and the forests surrounding it later inspired several of Oe's pastoral works. Oe's father died in the Pacific war in 1944, and in the same year he lost his grandmother, who had taught him art and oral performance. After attending a local school, Oe transferred to a high school in Matsuyama City. He won an admission to the University of Tokyo, where he studied French literature and received his B.A. in 1959. His final-year thesis was on the French writer Jean-Paul Sartre. Another important French writer for Oe was Albert Camus.

Notes on Oe Kenzaburo's, A Personal Matter Photo of Oe and his son Hikari A couple of things you may have noticed: the frequent reference to the poet Apollinaire with his bandaged head. Like Oe says on p. 32-33, My son has bandages on his head and so did Apollinaire when he was wounded on the field of battle. On a dark and lonely battlefield I have never seen, my son was wounded like Apollinaire and now he is screaming soundlessly. . . Bird began to cry. Head in bandages, like Apollinaire: the image simplified his feelings instantly and directed them. . . Like Apollinaire, my son was wounded on a dark and lonely battlefield that I have never seen, and he has arrvived with his head in bandages. I'll have to bury him like a soldier who died at war. Bird continued to cry. So who was Apollinaire? Apparently, he was quite the early 20th. century figure in France. He was a poet and playwright, hooked up with painters and musicians, was instrumental in the Cubist movementin short, he was a regular celebrity, a real "player" of his day. He volunteered to fight in WWI and was wounded in the head, hence the banadage references comparing Bird's baby to him. Here are a couple of images: and a drawing: To read more about Apollinaire, see

He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994. Oe came from a family of wealthy landowners, who lost most of their property with the occupation-imposed land reform following the war. He entered the University of Tokyo in 1954, graduating in 1959, and the brilliance of his writing while he was still a student caused him to be hailed the most promising young writer since Mishima Yukio. Oe first attracted attention on the literary scene with Shisha no ogori Lavish Are the Dead ), published in the magazine Bungakukai. His literary output was, however, uneven. His first novel, Memushiri kouchi Nip the Buds, Shoot the Kids ), was highly praised, and he won a major literary award, the Akutagawa Prize, for
