Abstract

Shiga Naoya, despite his intense longing for his deceased mother, never evoked her memories. This was because he deliberately tried to annihilate his deceased mother's presence and at once to construct a new world based on the mythical mother-child relationship, projected onto his own relation with his stepmother. This paper has attempted to reveal the content of Shiga's scheme, as well as to designate the internal and external causes for his conception of such a design.
