Toson Shimazaki (Date taken unknown)
Undated - Toson Shimazaki (1872-1943) was a Japanese author, active in the Meiji, Taisho and early Showa period Japan. He began his career as a poet, but went on to establish himself as the major proponent of naturalism in Japanese literature. He joined a literary group associated with the literary magazine Bungakukai in 1893. His first novel, The Broken Commandment was published in 1906. It was considered a landmark in Japanese realism and is thus regarded as the first Japanese naturalist novel. (Photo by Kingendai Photo Library/AFLO) [2373]
