Abstract

This study analyzes the mentoring relationship between Sōseki Natsume, a novelist and a scholar of English literature in the Meiji and Taishō Period, and his pupils from a sociological viewpoint. The nature of the community within the Japanese literary world changed its form from a guild-like form to an intelligent salon with university education around 1905. Although "Mokuyoukai", , " an intellectual salon by Soseki and his pupils, lasted from 1903 to 1916, members of "Mokuyoukai" had different characteristics for each generation. This study analyzes the structure and transformation of the mentoring relationship in ""Mokuyoukai", , " and clarifies the role played by Soseki and his pupils in acquiring the social authority of the literary world in connection with academia, as well as clarifying the origin of the literary ambitions of authors, such as Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, who played a central role in the literary world in the Taishō period.
