内容記述 | Ariyoshi Sawako first published Shibazakura (Moss Phlox) in the journal Shūkan Shinchō from January 1969 (Shōwa 44) to April 1970 (Shōwa 45) with illustrations by the artist Iwata Sentarō (1901-1974). The serialized novel, later reprinted in a hard cover edition with variances in 1970, narrates the tale of two frenemy geisha, Masako and Tsutayo, with Masako as the main protagonist. Several themes, or motifs, appear in the novel many of which were also chosen by Iwata Sentarō to be illustrated. Primary among them is the shibazakura (moss phlox) of the title, which aptly evokes the frenemy relationship between Masako and Tsutayo, where on numerous occasions, including the emblematic moss phlox incident, Tsutayo is overtly kindhearted while at the same time taking advantage of the circumstances to use to her own ends. Other motifs are generally considered more typical of the issues Sawako addresses in her works, such as a woman’s choice between career and marriage, the social status of a married woman as opposed to a geisha, and romantic love versus financial security. Often the themes of the novel are represented more concretely by motifs such as the moss phlox emblematic of the two main protagonists’ relationship or the diamonds emblematic of the episode treating the status of wife versus geisha. How these themes and the narrative interact, and how they are represented by discrete motifs, is the topic addressed in this essay. The primary source for this essay is not the republished and edited 1970 version of the novel, but the original serialized publication in the Shūkan Shinchō magazine with its attendant illustrations by Iwata Sen-tarō. Since the entirety of the novel was published over a period of 16 months, and in reprinted book form appears in two volumes of some 400 pages each, this essay too will also be written as a series. This current essay (part 1) covers the novel from its first installment of January 4 of 1969 to its fourteenth installment of April 5 of 1969 (episode 13 in the book edition). All notations refer to the magazine serialized edition, which not only differs from the book in the parsing of the episodes, but also on occasion has minor differences in text. | |||||
