  • Jun'ichirō Tanizaki (谷崎 潤一郎) was a Japanese author, and one of the major writers of modern Japanese literature, perhaps the most popular Japanese novelist after Natsume Sōseki. Some of his works present a rather shocking world of sexuality and destructive erotic obsessions; others, less sensational, subtly portray the dynamics of family life in the context of the rapid changes in 20th-century Japanese society. Frequently his stories are narrated in the context of a search for cultural identity in which constructions of "the West" and "Japanese tradition" are juxtaposed. The results are complex, ironic, demure, and provocative.

الوصف

“He saw her body not as a sculptor or painter might, to whom it was just an object of aesthetic beauty, but with the devotion of a priest viewing the sacred image of a goddess. To his eyes, the faults, too, were precious, and he took pride in them, because they were the only marks that proved his life with Shunkin was real. He found in them an ineffable charm, a charm beyond the power of art to express.”
“A Portrait of Shunkin” is one of the most renowned stories in Jun’ichirō Tanizaki’s collection “Seven Japanese Tales.” It is a deeply evocative narrative that delves into themes of beauty, devotion, and the complexities of human relationships.
