Critic. Born in Tokushima Prefecture. After graduating from Tokyo Imperial University, he became a reporter for the Yomiuri Shimbun, Osaka Mainichi Shimbun, Tokyo Asahi Shimbun, and other newspapers. He began his writing career in 1923 (Taisho 12), but because he had been familiar with socialism since his junior high school days, he always maintained a humanistic perspective. His keen sense as a journalist was so sharp that he was described as a "sharp-edged man." The popular phrases "mobo" (modern boy) and "moga" (modern girl), which were popular in the early Showa period, were coined by him. He participated in the founding of the Japan Fabian Society (1924), but was ideologically anarchist. In 1925, he founded Bungei Hihyo, and in 1932 (Showa 7), he was involved in the founding of Freedom for Us. After World War II, he was active in citizen movements as the elected mayor of Suginami Ward in Tokyo. His works include "Left-leaning Thought" (1921) and "Anarchist Art Theory" (1930).

評論家。徳島県生まれ。東京帝国大学卒業後、『読売新聞』『大阪毎日新聞』『東京朝日新聞』などの記者となる。1923年(大正12)から文筆生活に入ったが、中学生時代から社会主義に親しんでいたこともあって、つねにヒューマニズム的視点をとり続けた。ジャーナリストとしての感覚の鋭さは「尖端(せんたん)人」と評されるほどであった。昭和初期の流行語「モボ」(モダンボーイ)、「モガ」(モダンガール)は彼の造語。日本フェビアン協会の結成(1924)に参加したが、思想的にはアナキズムの立場である。1925年『文芸批評』を創刊、1932年(昭和7)には『自由を我等(われら)に』の創刊にかかわった。第二次世界大戦後は東京都杉並区の公選区長として市民運動に積極的であった。著作に『左傾思潮』(1921)、『アナキズム芸術論』(1930)ほかがある。 [清田義昭] 『『アナキズム芸術論』(1930・天人社)』 [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
