Extractions: The Second World War broke out when Oe was six. Militaristic education extended to every nook and cranny of the country, the Emperor as both monarch and deity reigning over its politics and its culture. Young Oe, therefore, experienced the nation's myth and history as well as those of the village tradition, and these dual experiences were often in conflict. Oe's grandmother was a critical storyteller who defended the culture of the village, narrating to him humourously, but ever defiantly, anti-national stories. After his father's death during the war, his mother took over his father's role as educator. The books she bought him - The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Strange Adventures of Nils Holgersson - have left him with an impression he says 'he will carry to the grave'. Japan's defeat in the war in 1945 brought enormous change, even to the remote forest village. In schools, children were taught democratic principles, replacing those of the absolutist Emperor system, and this education was all the more thorough, for the nation was then under the administration of American and other forces. Young Oe took democracy straight to his heart. So strong was his desire for democracy that he decided to leave for Tokyo; leave the village of his forefathers, the life they had lived and preserved, out of sheer belief that the city offered him an opportunity to knock on the door of democracy, the door that would lead him to a future of freedom on paths that stretched out to the world. Had it not been for the drastic change the nation underwent at this time, Oe, whose love of trees is one of his innate qualities, would have remained in his village as his forefathers had done, and tended to the forest as one of its guardians.

Extractions: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Kenzaburo Oe (1935-) Japanese novelist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994. Oe has often dealt with marginal people and outcasts and isolation from individual level to social and cultural levels. Another central theme - as in the works of a number of other Japanese writers - is the conflict between traditions and modern Western culture. " My observation is that after one hundred and twenty years of modernisation since the opening of the country, present-day Japan is split between two opposite poles of ambiguity. I too am living as a writer with this polarisation imprinted on me like a deep scar." (from Nobel Lecture, 1994) Kenzaburo Oe was born in a mountain village on the island of Shikoku, the smallest of the four main Japanese islands, where his family had lived for centuries. The village and the forests surrounding it later inspired several of Oe's pastoral works. In 1944 Oe's father died in the Pacific war, and in the same year he lost his grandmother, who had taught him art and oral performance. After attending a local school, Oe transferred to a high school in Matsuyama City. He won an admission to the University of Tokyo, where he studied French literature and received his B.A. in 1959. His final-year thesis was on the French writer Jean-Paul Sartre. Another important French writer for Oe was Albert Camus. During these years he started to write and explore his childhood, when the World War II had filled his mind with horror and excitement. His early works expressed his sense of the degradation and disorientation caused by Japan's surrender at the end of World War II. Sex and violence labelled his depiction of rootless young people. Oe wanted to experiment with language and create a new way of literary expression, which would capture the social and psychological changes that took place in his home country. He also had to cope with a personal handicap, the inferiority complex of a shy young man from the country, who stuttered and spoke with heavy Shokoku accent.

Extractions: Oe Kenzaburo, 1994 [Audio] (b. Jan. 31, 1935, Ehime prefecture, Shikoku, Japan), Japanese novelist whose works express the disillusionment and rebellion of his post-World War II generation. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994. Oe came from a family of wealthy landowners, who lost most of their property with the occupation-imposed land reform following the war. He entered the University of Tokyo in 1954, graduating in 1959, and the brilliance of his writing while he was still a student caused him to be hailed the most promising young writer since Mishima Yukio. Oe first attracted attention on the literary scene with Shisha no ogori Lavish Are the Dead ), published in the magazine Bungakukai. His literary output was, however, uneven. His first novel, Memushiri kouchi Nip the Buds, Shoot the Kids ), was highly praised, and he won a major literary award, the Akutagawa Prize, for Shiiku The Catch ). But his second novel, Wa re ra no jidai (1959; "Our Age"), was poorly received, as his contemporaries felt that Oe was becoming increasingly preoccupied with social and political criticism. Oe became deeply involved in the politics of the New Left. The murder in 1960 of Chairman Asanuma Inejiro of the Japanese Socialist Party by a right-wing youth inspired Oe to write two short stories in 1961, "Sebuntin" ("Seventeen") and "Seiji shonen shisu," the latter of which drew heavy criticism from right-wing organizations.

Extractions: This page is prepared by Thomas Court and Tsuey-Lin Yap Biography Grotesque Realism "A Personal Matter" The Real Story Kenzaburo Oe was born in 1935, in a small Japanese town on the island of Shikoku. The women of the Oe clan had long assumed the role of storytellers. After his fatherfs death during the war, his mother took over his fatherfs role as educator. Oefs mother made sure that he had access to books as a child. Oefs favourite books as a young boy were "The Adventure of Huckleberry Finn" and "The Strange Adventures of Nils Holgersson." These two books left him with an impression he says "He will carry to the grave." The Second World War started when he was six. Oe and his peers received military education in schools. Oe recalls, gThe Ethics teacher would call the boys to the front of the class and demand of them one by one what they would do if the Emperor commanded them to die. Shaking with fright, the child would answer: "I would die, Sir, I would rip open my belly and die." Students passed the Imperial portrait with their eyes to the ground, afraid their eyeballs would explode if they looked His Imperial Majesty in the face.hKenzaburo had a recurring dream in which the Emperor swopped out of the sky like a bird, his body covered with white feathers. On the day the Emperor announced the Surrender in August 1945, Oe was a ten-year-old boy living in a mountain village. Here is how he recalls the event: "The adults sat around their radios and cried. The children gathered outside in the dusty road and whispered their bewilderment. We were most confused and disappointed by the fact that the Emperor had spoken in a human voice, no different from any adultfs. None of us understood what he was saying, but we all had heard his voice. One of my friends could even imitate it cleverly. Laughing, we surrounded him - a twelve year old in grimy shorts who spoke with the Emperorfs voice. A minute later we felt afraid. We looked at one another; no one spoke. How could we believe that an august presence of such awful power had become an ordinary human being on a designated summer day?"

He was now writing about his son, and the relationship they shared. His first novel after the birth of his son, A Personal Matter, is about a father dealing with the birth of a mentally handicapped child. He has written several stories with similar themes, which he refers to as his "idiot son" stories. -These stories were mainly significant in his writing the Nobel Prize in 1994. -After accepting the Nobel Prize, He refused to accept the Order of Cultural Merit, one of Japan's highest honors. He did this because of his distrust of the Japanese government. -He was finished writing novels. His stated reason for this is that he wrote his fiction to give a voice to his son, and now his son has his own voice. -He has been giving lectures in universities in the United States, Germany and Japan in recent years.

These qualities, in combination with an extremely serene poetics, often produced a redeeming effect in his works. Another unprecedented feature was his style: a Japanese completely free from the conventions of the language. He was most likely following the Russian formalists definition of literature: [They] saw literary language as a set of deviations from a norm, a kind of linguistic violence (Eagleton). In an interview published in World Literature Today. Oe himself later explained: My intention was to destroy the Japanese language by using a kind of syntax that cannot fit with Japanese.
