Abstract

Since the Meiji Period Japanese fiction has been greatly influenced by Western modern art. Most realistic writers, for example, composed their novels in perspective, the viewpoint of Western paintings. But Sizuo Fujieda, although himself a realistic writer, refused to adopt the method of Western art and sought after a different kind of realism. His interest in the secular (e.g., folk art) and the sacred (e.g., religious art such as described in Sinobu Origuchi's Shisha-no-sho) in his later career is also the attempt to expose the fictional nature of Western realism in the pre-modern ways of representations.
