Style and Narrative in Translations

The Contribution of Futabatei Shimei

Author: Hiroko Cockerill

Futabatei Shimei (1864-1909) is widely regarded as the founder of the modern Japanese novel. His novel Floating Clouds (1887-1889) was written in a colloquial narrative style that was unprecedented in Japanese literature, as was its negative hero. Futabatei was also a pioneer translator of Russian literature, translating works by Turgenev, Gogol, Tolstoy, Gorky and others – his translations had an enormous impact (perhaps even greater than his novels) on the development of Japanese literature.
