「友情」武者小路実篤 "Friendship" Saneatsu Mushanokoji [Impression]
100年前の大正9年、1920年の小説であり、言葉遣いはとにかく古い。
しかし、NHKラジオで放送された朗読を聴いたので、割とすんなりと情景を目に浮かべることが出来た。
あえて分野を言えば、青春恋愛小説なのだろうが、現代にはありえないような純粋さ、無垢さ、誠実さがある。古き良き日本人の良さを垣間見た感じ。
また、恋愛や友達付き合いに悩む若者の当たり前の感情が、細かくしかも、丁寧に表現されており、そうした部分は現代も変わらないと思えた。
さらに、かなりお金持ちの部類の若者達を描いていることや、見合い結婚が当たり前の中で、自分の気持ちに正直な恋愛を語っていることは、当時の若者達を、さぞ夢の中に誘い込んだのだろうと推察出来る。
白樺派の一人である作者の小説を始めて読んだ(実際には聴いた)が、一世を風靡したことに納得したというのが、感想である。
It is a novel from the 9th year of the Taisho era and 1920 years ago, and the wording is old anyway.
However, since I listened to the reading broadcast on NHK Radio, I was able to see the scene relatively easily.
Speaking of the field, it may be a youth romance novel, but it has purity, innocence, and sincerity that are impossible in modern times. A glimpse of the goodness of the good old Japanese.
In addition, the natural feelings of young people who are suffering from romance and friendship are expressed in detail and politely, and it seems that such parts are the same today.
In addition, the fact that he depicts young people who are quite rich and that he talks about love that is honest with his feelings while matchmaking marriage is commonplace makes young people at that time in a dream. It can be inferred that he was invited.
I read (actually listened to) the novel by the author, who is one of the Shirakabaha factions, but I was convinced that it was predominant in the world.
