抄録

This paper is a complete guide to the 72 books written by Haruko Shogenji (1914-2015), one of Japan’s leading authors of children’s books. According to the trilogy of her autobiographical novels, she spent most of her childhood in the Tohoku region, and then, due to her father’s job transfer, her family moved to Kyoto, where she was bullied by her classmates, which was to turn into several novels, then they went to Korea under Japan’s colonial rule, where she felt uncomfortable, thinking it wrong to live happily in the foreign land. Experiencing the misery of World War II, Shogenji wrote, in her early career, about a girl who felt miserable with her family members staying at their relative’s home, always hungry during the war, and about a boy who lost his parents in an air raid, suffering a lot to live on his own. Some idealism after the war seems to have permeated all her works. Haruko Shogenji was good at describing the sensitive workings of children’s mind; their happiness as well as their sorrow. She wrote not only realistic fiction but also fantasy, for example, about ancient Egyptians she was very interested in.
