International Union of Revolutionary Writers

...An international organization for proletarian literature was the International Bureau of Proletkrit, which was established in 1920 and reorganized as the International Bureau of Revolutionary Literature in 1925. At the bureau's second conference held in Kharkov in 1930, bringing together proletarian writers from 22 countries, the organization was renamed the International Union of Revolutionary Writers (Mezhdunarodnoe ob'edinenie revolyutsionnykh pisatelei) and played a major role in international exchange of proletarian and revolutionary literature until its dissolution in 1935. [Egawa Taku]
[Japan]
Japanese proletarian literature gradually attracted attention from the beginning of the 1920s, and by 1930 it had overwhelmed the literary world. After the Manchurian Incident in 1931, it began to disintegrate due to intensifying repression, and disappeared in its entirety around 1935. It encompasses a wide range of works, from simple expressions of the lives and voices of workers and apprentices to literary activities that were part of the revolutionary movement led by the Communist Party.

[日本]
 日本のプロレタリア文学は,1920年代の初めからしだいに注目され,30年ころには文壇を圧する活気を示し,31年の満州事変以後は弾圧激化で解体に向かい,35年前後にその形としては消滅したもので,労働者や下積みの人々の生活とその声の素朴な表現から,共産党主導の革命運動の一翼としての文学活動という面までを包含する。…
