In the intervening 100 years Tsuki ni hoeru has been studied from several perspectives, covering topics such as the rhythm of Sakutarō’s free verse poems, the influence of Dostoevsky and Nietzsche, as well as the relation between eroticism and Christianity in his imagery. This wide range of approaches shows the thematic complexity of Tsuki ni Hoeru. «Sentimentalism» is also an important topic and a central keyword to the aesthetic sensibility underlying Sakutaro’s poetic output in the years of his first collection of poems. In my presentation, I will first try to clarify the meaning of sentimentalism, as peculiar to Sakutarō’s poetry, through comparison with the former romantic sentimentalism of Yosano Akiko in the Meiji period. Then, I will focus on the representation of «body» in Sakutaro’s works, through the recurring themes of «guilt», «disease» and «sense of alienation», pointing out the connection between body and sentimentalism in his poetry. The final aim of my presentation is to offer up a reflection on how the representation of the body, that is peculiar to his sentimentalism, conveys Sakutarō’s perception of modernity in Japan in the years he was composing the poems of Tsuki ni Hoeru.}, pages = {1--18}, publisher = {人間文化研究機構 国文学研究資料館}, title = {研究発表 萩原朔太郎の〈センチメンタリズム〉における身体の意味を考える}, year = {2018}, yomi = {カッポンチェッリ, ルカ} }
