抄録

This paper focuses on Natsume Sōseki's Kōjin (Wayfarer), appeared in a serial form in the Asahi Newspaper from December 1912. Keeping in mind that Sōseki's novels reflect his spiritual background, the paper attempts an analytical comparison of Kōjin with his Higan Sugi Made (To the Spring Equinox and beyond) and Mon (The Gate). As a result, the analysis reveals that the narrative of Kōjin is penetrated by an inner finite perspective that changes through its progress. Besides, this perspective assumes an eschatological flavour that is suggested by Ichirō's death as an outer termination of the story. Such perspective enables an isolated rootless existence to be embodied in changing relationships with others; the existence that is clearly different from a prototype in Taishō personalism. In conclusion, it is suggested that the narrative of Kōjin shows in this way a possibility to express an unspoken thing as it is.
