 note = {pdf, In consideration of the difficulty of achieving a unified theory of the history of modern Japanese literature, in this paper I have presented my objections to the present denial by numerous critics of the existence of New Romanticism in the history of Modern Japanese Literature. I will elucidate my ideas with examples from two works by the literary theorist Yoshida Seiichi: A Study of Naturalism and A Study of Romanticism. Yoshida's opinions regarding New Romanticism can be summarised in the following three points:
1. The Shirakaba-ha cannot be considered New Romanticism.
2. The impurity of Soseki's style precludes the label of New Romanticism.
3. The Decadent Writers were essentially Late Romantics, as opposed to New Romantics. Ignoring those writers who preserved the spirit of Romanticism despite the powerful influence of Naturalism, Yoshida has effectively shut out the concept of New Romanticism from the history of Modern Japanese Literature. I have therefore examined the above three points, and have proposed the following two counter-arguments:
1. New Romanticism does indeed exist in Modern Japanese Literature, and is an aspect of our literature which should be regarded as important.
2. As a counter-movement to the early and late periods of Naturalism, New Romanticism formed the first and second periods of "Anti-Naturalism."},
