2023年2月10日的『永井荷風作品討論會』，對我HC而言，或許有點自不量力。然而，或許可將近30年收集的書，翻翻，量力而為，踏出一小步。
(今日或為先生的頭七，前幾天在報紙上獲知先生仙逝，記者文章中只說你是皇宮中某室壁障畫的作者等等，完全不提先生在唐招提寺中畫的鑑真史詩，先生在德國或美國的風景中所做的沉思，先生畫的路、樹、林，先生在信州長野市的美術館…
照理當再讀先生的文，。再看先生的畫。然而又何必如此呢？我在心裡，像永井荷風的父親，每逢蘇軾生日必邀老友聚飲、吟詩。先生的靈是東洋的，然而先生或許也了解里爾克論風景吧！（敬別東山魁夷先生(2000/01)）我一定讀過他的散文選集，所以2000會這樣寫

『濹東綺譚』上海三聯 2012 第一頁就有打字錯誤
『濹東綺譚』（ぼくとうきだん[1]）は永井荷風の小説。私娼窟・玉の井を舞台に、小説家・大江匡と娼婦・お雪との出会いと別れを、季節の移り変わりとともに美しくも哀れ深く描いている。荷風の日記『断腸亭日乗』には荷風の玉の井通いの様子が書かれており、主人公大江は作者の分身と考えられる。荷風の小説中、最高傑作ともされ、1960年・1992年に映画化された。

" In his total commitment to the truth,the photodrapher follows a course diffent from the abstractionst one attempted by the painter.
Verisimilitude is by no neans the photographer's concern.The important thing is how he feels about his subject matters and how strongly he reacts to them.
Photographs should always be the mirrors of the struggles the artist is going through. "

[BOOK REVIEW] 'Rivalry' of the steamy and sensitive variety
'Rivalry: A Geisha's Tale,' the first English translation of the classic Japanese novel's full text, is nostalgic and honest about the early 20th-century performers
By Bradley Winterton / CONTRIBUTING REPORTER
RIVALRY: A GEISHA'S TALE
By Nagai Kafu
Translated by Stephen Snyder
165 pages
Columbia University Press
Much of Asia can still be rightly described as displaying a "massage
culture." Sex, nominally disguised as massage, is offered by the
attractive but impecunious young to the better-off males in
establishments that have, to local eyes, nothing disreputable about
them. European men discovered this age-old phenomenon with a sense of
disbelief - its equivalents had long been banished, certainly in
Anglo-Saxon countries, under the various manifestations of Puritanism.
Thailand went on to built a tourism industry on its immemorial
leisure-time habits, while in Japan the ancient structures were modified
only by the arrival of general affluence. This has led to nostalgia
there for the old ways, and in particular a fascination with the
lifestyle and traditions of the geishas.
Rivalry: A Geisha's Tale, fresh from Columbia University Press in an English version by Stephen Snyder, is the first ever translation of the full text of the masterpiece of the early 20th century novelist and short-story writer Nagai Kafu. An earlier translation was only of a commercial edition that didn't include long erotic passages added later by the author for a private printing - he knew in advance that they'd be unacceptable to the government censor.
Nagai Kafu is a fascinating figure. Originally an editor of literary magazines specializing in the newly-fashionable French naturalism, he abandoned that work in order to embark on a life investigating Tokyo's erotic underworld. This was partly done, no doubt, for its own sake, but it was also undertaken in a spirit of devotion to the ethos of the old, pre-modern Japan, the traditions of which Kafu felt were in part preserved in the teahouses and theaters around which the geishas and other women of the night circulated.
Rivalry is a wonderful novel, with clearly distinguished characters, a swift narrative style, rich descriptions and incisive analyses of feelings and motives. It's set around 1912, and evokes a capital city already equipped with telephones, newspapers, cigarettes and trams. There are stockbrokers, new sessions of parliament and year-end sales. But still defining the life in the pleasure quarters are the ways of the Edo period which had ended over 40 years before, so that geishas continue to preside over the tea ceremony, dress with astonishing formality, and entertain rich businessmen, initially at least with performances on the shamisen.
Kafu understands perfectly well that differences of money, and hence of power, lie behind the sexual games his characters play. The geishas are contracted to the houses they work out of, and one of their main ambitions is to find a patron who will pay off this debt and set them up in financial independence. But at the same time they are young and sensual beings, falling in love with kabuki actors of their own age even while conducting by no means platonic affairs with their older clients. This is part of the rivalry of the title, and it's the main character's love for a young actor that triggers the fury of her patron, Yoshioka, even though he's by this time become tired of their sexual relationship and is looking around for new pleasure elsewhere.
It's strange that a novel as good as this has remained unpublished in English in its complete form for so long. It's true that for many decades after the extended edition was published in Japan (in 1917) passages from it would not have been permitted in, for instance, the UK. There are by no means disapproving references to oral and anal sex, for example, and the writing in general has an open-mindedness about it that is extremely refreshing. Even so, it has been through Arthur Golden's 1997 bestseller Memoirs of a Geisha - also a novel, though cast as an autobiography - that most modern readers have gotten to know about the geisha traditions. Kafu's older classic, by contrast, will please aesthetes and lovers of genuine literature far more.

Kafu's older classic, by contrast, will please aesthetes and lovers of genuine literature far more.
There's a long-standing tradition among Japan specialists of
insisting that geishas were high-class entertainers most of whom would
never allow the men they entertained to lay a finger on them. This is a
long way from Kafu's view, and he was in an ideal position to know.
Indeed, the description of one particularly outrageous senior geisha,
Kikuchiyo, is so replete with sexual detail that I had to read it twice
before I could believe my eyes.
But Kafu was no smut-peddler. At heart he was a lover of ancient Chinese poetry, like the writer Kurayama Nanso in the novel. Indeed, one of the characters he mocks most vigorously is Yamai, the editor of a new magazine specializing in pornographic photos. But then one of the attractions of this wonderful book is its range, even given its relative brevity and concision. There are as many different types of character, and of emotion, as there are in Tolstoy, even though Kafu's true masters were probably Maupassant and Turgenev, social realists with a sympathetic eye for subtleties of situation and nuances of feeling.
Kafu was an aesthete fascinated by sex, and predictably he had his own theory of desire. Whereas men of old sought to prove their masculinity in war or hunting, in the modern world they seek to do it by success in the fields of business and sexual predation. Yoshioka is his prime example of this, a handsome married man possessed of "an endless repertoire of obscene tricks," adept at concluding affairs, and endlessly seeking out new conquests "from girls of sixteen to women past forty." He finally finds his match in the frankly sensual Kikuchiyo.
Stephen Snyder is to be thanked both for translating this half-forgotten novel at all, and for doing it so compellingly. He is, incidentally, also the author of a critical book on Kafu entitled, appropriately enough, Fictions of Desire.

http://www.gutenberg.org/files/34636/34636-h/34636-h.htm晴日木屐
譯者: 陳德文出版社: 花城出版社 出版年: 2012
《晴日木屐(日本唯美大師閒踏晴日木屐漫遊記趣)》是日本唯美派開山祖永井荷風的散文代表作，首次全譯了深受周作人喜愛的專集《晴日木屐——東京散策記》。荷風腳踏晴日木屐，手拿蝙蝠傘，走遍東京大街小巷及郊外，詳敘見聞及心跡，特別記錄了在現代文明社會的衝擊之下，遭受嚴重摧殘的日本傳統文化和古代遺存；以悲惋的情調表達了對江戶世俗生活的回味與嚮往，凸顯了一個傳統文人在社會轉型時期的文化批判眼光。 《晴日木屐(日本唯美大師閒踏晴日木屐漫遊記趣)》文字細膩，筆調感人。
棄之如木屐說到木屐，日本也常提我們的謝靈運。這位一千五百多年前的南朝人物"常著木屐，上山則去其前齒，下山則去其後齒"，此法是否真可行，好像不曾有人用實踐檢驗。白川靜以研究漢字著名，他說謝公屐叫蠟屐，腳底的板與板下的齒用蠟連接。我漠然想，大概像卯與榫一般嚴絲合縫，塗蠟潤滑，才容易把齒卸下或裝上。至於日本的木屐，參觀作坊，卻是把一塊木頭從中曲折鋸開，便初具一對形狀，再精削細磨。底板鑿三孔，繫帶作人字，據清末廣東人黃遵憲的體驗，"必兩指間夾持用力乃能行".這人字不能倒過來，所以上山下山都只有一個趿拉法。周作人"覺得比廣東用皮條絡住腳背的還要好，因為這似乎更著力可以走路"，於是他穿了和服木屐，拄根文明棍，很是自在。謝靈運時代鞋類已頗多，木屐"以木為之，施兩齒"，是專門用來踐踏泥濘的，恐怕不適於登山，此公玩風流罷了。從出土文物來看，木屐很早隨稻作從中國江南傳入日本，但晉人陳壽在《三國志》中記載，日本"皆徒跣"，就是說木屐傳入是傳入了，日常卻未必就用它來走路。或許踏地作響，用以驅鬼，用以敬神，踏起歌來又可以代替鼓聲，且歌且舞。平日里人們不是打赤腳，就是穿"草鞋"或者"草履".社會進步，草履不斷地改良創新，你看見女人穿和服嬝娜如隨風飄去，倘若是正裝，她內八字拖沓的就應該是這玩藝兒。木屐的齒有高有低，高齒木屐的一大功用是平地出恭，類似於吾鄉早年的茅房用方磚兩塊，左右墊腳。歌舞昇平的江戶時代也過了一半，已經是18世紀中葉，刨鑿之類工具發達，這才出現了專門做木屐的作坊。於是，木屐在女人當中流行，二十年後男人也跟風。本來木屐和雨傘相配，對付有雨一街泥，後來卻成為時尚，晴天也穿出來聽響。還造出三個齒的，塗了黑漆，妓女之超女拖曳著遊行。 1901年，這一年警察開始練車，騎腳踏車巡街，當局頒布禁止跣足令，街頭巷尾便響徹踢裡踏拉聲。也有了板與齒拼裝而成的，例如晴日木屐。永井荷風寫過隨筆《晴日木屐》，他趿拉著這種木屐逛街，是東京天氣全然沒有信用的緣故。戰敗後物資匱乏，人們只有木屐可穿，1955年生產九千三百萬雙，創歷史紀錄。此後經濟起飛，男女老少穿上了皮鞋。 1964年舉辦奧運會，大街小巷都鋪上柏油，木屐就成了長物，蔽與不蔽，統統被棄之，天下闃然。前幾天觀看日本鐵道攝影展，一張老照片吸引了眼球，但興趣並不在火車，而是鐵道邊站成一排看火車風馳的孩子，木屐不良於跑，被他們別在腰里或拎在手上，此景題為木屐的記憶似更妙。在學校裡身上製服，腳下木屐呱噠呱噠，屬於粗野形象，有傷風紀，現今只有大學拉拉隊的隊長還弄成這副模樣。不過，有一個人物卻令我佩服，他叫島正博，上學穿木屐被老師申斥，回家動腦筋，在底板上嵌入橡膠墊靜音，從此走上發明之路，1965年開發全自動手套編織機。商店裡賣的毛衣，款式繁多，袖子不是後縫上的，而是像木屐一樣整體成型，這種編織機也是他發明。二胡不知從什麼時候起成為中國的國粹，把木屐算作日本的國粹我們也應該無話可說，並且為棄之而惋惜。而今只有夏日里看煙火，女孩裹上輕薄的和服，光著白白的腳丫拖木屐，風情猶存，但她們偶一為之，嬌呼腳趾疼。

永井 荷風 断腸亭日乗 Danchōtei Nichijō
Nagai Kafū (永井 荷風), born Nagai Sōkichi (永井 壮吉), December 4, 1879 - April 30, 1959, was a Japanese novelist, playwright, essayist, and diarist. His works are noted for their depictions of life in early 20th-century Tokyo, especially among geisha, prostitutes, cabaret dancers, and other denizens of the city's lively entertainment districts.
Among his major works are:
- American Stories (あめりか物語, Amerika Monogatari, 1908)
- Geisha in Rivalry (腕くらべ, Ude Kurabe, 1916-1917)
- A Strange Tale from East of the River (濹東綺譚, Bokutō Kidan, 1937)
A Strange Tale from East of the River (濹東綺譚, Bokutō Kidan, 1937) 中文翻譯收入：『永井荷風選集』陳薇譯，北京：作家出版社，1999
這大概是57歲的作品：正文寫一位女子；贅言寫一位不遇的摯友…..隨便可以舉『紅樓夢』的一首- His diaries, especially Danchōtei Nichijō (断腸亭日乗, written 1917-1959)

The
pink flowers of shukaido hardy begonias are blooming modestly in a
nearby park. Said to be shade-loving, these flowers light up the gloom
cast by the towering trees.
Shukaido are also called "Danchoka," which translates as "heart-rending flowers." The name is said to derive from their seemingly mournful appearance.
The novelist Nagai Kafu (1879-1959) loved these flowers and had them planted in his garden, and named his residence Danchotei. It was there that he wrote his famous diary titled "Danchotei Nichijo," for an impressive 42 years from before World War II to the day before his death. The diary attests to his uncompromising liberalism.
His first entry, dated Sept. 16 exactly 90 years ago, reads: "Sept. 16: These endless autumn rains remind me of the tsuyu rainy season."
Nagai had no interest in keeping up with the times, but his insight into what was happening in the world was sharp and accurate. While haunting bars and red light districts, he observed bluntly of the Japanese invasion of China: "Hopelessly stuck in a prolonged war, (the government) has suddenly started calling it a holy war--a most egregious misnomer."
On another day, he was barely able to contain his loathing for his own compatriots: "Oh America, I beseech thee to rise up at once and give these savage people a chance to repent."
And upon hearing of Emperor Hirohito's radio address to concede Japan's defeat in World War II, Nagai wrote: "Just what I needed (to hear)... We all celebrated, got drunk, and went to sleep." A hermit in spirit, Nagai was wide awake to reality.
Reportedly, he wrote his diary with the intent of eventually publishing it. I wonder if he would have started a blog in this present age.
There are currently more than 8 million Internet bloggers in Japan, and they are said to have a combined readership of about 40 million people. Anyone can voice their opinions in public today, but one downside of this is that anyone can verbally abuse others.
In "Danchotei Nichijo," Nagai hardly made personal attacks. The master wordsmith must have been fully aware of how hurtful words could be if used as a weapon for personal attack.

Shukaido are also called "Danchoka," which translates as "heart-rending flowers." The name is said to derive from their seemingly mournful appearance.
The novelist Nagai Kafu (1879-1959) loved these flowers and had them planted in his garden, and named his residence Danchotei. It was there that he wrote his famous diary titled "Danchotei Nichijo," for an impressive 42 years from before World War II to the day before his death. The diary attests to his uncompromising liberalism.
His first entry, dated Sept. 16 exactly 90 years ago, reads: "Sept. 16: These endless autumn rains remind me of the tsuyu rainy season."
Nagai had no interest in keeping up with the times, but his insight into what was happening in the world was sharp and accurate. While haunting bars and red light districts, he observed bluntly of the Japanese invasion of China: "Hopelessly stuck in a prolonged war, (the government) has suddenly started calling it a holy war--a most egregious misnomer."
On another day, he was barely able to contain his loathing for his own compatriots: "Oh America, I beseech thee to rise up at once and give these savage people a chance to repent."
And upon hearing of Emperor Hirohito's radio address to concede Japan's defeat in World War II, Nagai wrote: "Just what I needed (to hear)... We all celebrated, got drunk, and went to sleep." A hermit in spirit, Nagai was wide awake to reality.
Reportedly, he wrote his diary with the intent of eventually publishing it. I wonder if he would have started a blog in this present age.
There are currently more than 8 million Internet bloggers in Japan, and they are said to have a combined readership of about 40 million people. Anyone can voice their opinions in public today, but one downside of this is that anyone can verbally abuse others.
In "Danchotei Nichijo," Nagai hardly made personal attacks. The master wordsmith must have been fully aware of how hurtful words could be if used as a weapon for personal attack.

出版日期：2010 年1月永井荷風（1879-1959），日本唯美主義文學的代表作家。他的文字華麗、細膩，有著日本文學傳統的美感，雖然被人指責為“頹廢”、“耽於享樂主義”，但其唯美的和哀情的風格確是無與倫比的。荷風是最早接受西方文化的日本人之一，在經歷深層的文化碰撞所帶來的心靈折磨和震撼之後，卻成了日本江戶社會文化的守望者。貫穿於荷風的文學世界的主題，是那種爛熟之極而後的頹廢，並隨之而來的清新雅麗又有幾分哀愁惆悵的社會、風物以及人情世故。荷風的代表作有小說（《地獄之花》（1902）、..船艙夜話牧場小道山岡上醉美人長發春和秋雪的歸宿林間壞朋友舊恨夢醒一月一日曉芝加哥二日夏之海深夜的酒落葉夜之女夜間漫步六月夜的夢.西雅圖的一夜夜霧夏之海（初稿）

坂口安吾記事にもチラリと書きましたが、ただいま古典文学に夢中！学生時代は、名作と呼ばれる文学は強制されない限り、ほとんど読まない人間でし たが、試 験勉強する必要がなくなって”超”久しい今日、何を思ったか急に日本の文豪と呼ばれる作家の作品を読みたくなり、このところいろいろな本に手を伸ばしてい ます。
・・・な～んて言っても、それは短いものに限りますが（笑）それと、内容が暗くないこと！これ、わたしにとっては本を読む際、最重要点だっ たりします。いくら素晴らしい文学でも、読後に気力を失うようなものはダメダメなのです。さて、前置きが長くなりましたが、つまり、本作も、暗い内容では ありません。ちょっと、ヒュルリラ～ッと北風が吹くようなもの哀しさはあるものの、それよりも、平成に生きる者としては、昭和初期の変わりゆく東京の描写が、なんともノスタルジックかつ新鮮。そちらの方がインパクト大のため、最後まで面白く読むことができました。これ、一応フィクションではありますが、著者の経験談といってもいいくらいな印象です。
たった８０余ページという本作。物 語は、小説家の”わたくし”が、新たな作 品の構想を練るため、日課のごとく、ぶらりぶらりと下町散歩を楽しんでいるところから始まります。ある日、彼はひとりの女性と出会います。彼女は、推定 ２０代後半の和風美人。時代がどんどん西洋化するなか、古風な髪結い姿をしている彼女を、主人公は一目で気に入ります・・・。
彼 女がどんな人間なのか、そして何故に本作のタイトルは聞き慣れない「墨東綺譚 」なのか、というのは、それは読んでからのお楽しみ、とした方がいいと思いますので伏せます。ただ、これは完全に大人向けですね。なぜなら、主人公のトシ は５８歳。当時にすれば初老であり、残された人生をどう生きるか的な迷いが描かれていますし、主人公と女性の関係も、ちょっとフツーではないからです。
本作の面白い点は、劇中劇ならぬ作中作（？）。小説の中にもうひとつ小説が描かれるというところが、興味深かったです。そして、もう一点は主人公の性格。冒頭のシーンが印象的です。彼は、交番のおまわりさんにあらぬ疑いをかけられるのですが、それに立腹した主人公は「どこから来た？」と問われると「向こうから」。「トシは？」と尋ねられると「己の卯」意味不明な返答におまわりさんプンプンです（笑）そして交番を立ち去る際には、「あっかんべ～」とばかりに、交番内にプッとタバコの煙を吐いたりして・・・昭和のちょい悪オヤジ、ここに有り（笑）！
こんな主人公なので、さぞ面白おかしい物語なのだろうと読み進めると、意外にも後は穏やかに何が起きるということなく結末へ・・・となるのですが、東京の下町の描写にかなりの紙面を割いているところをみると、著者は消えつつある明治・大正時代の残り香を描くことが目的だっ たのだと思わされます。本作、実は永井荷風の代表作だそうです。何気なく買っただけなのに、ラッキー！！しかし、わたしが心打たれたのは、２０ページにも 及ぶ作者あとがき（作後贅言）だったりします。変わり行く銀座の街について、そして作者自身のことについて語られているのですが、なんとも言えない味があ ります。ですので、お読みになる方は、ぜひとも作者あとがきも、お忘れなく！！

1965年8月7日周作人在給鮑耀明的信中說："我對於明治時代文學者佩服夏目漱石與森鷗外，大正以下則有谷崎君與永井荷風， 今已全變為古人了，至於現代文學因為看不到，所以不知道，其實恐怕看了也不懂的也。"這裡"不懂"一語似乎應該以他談及石原那書時所說的"極為遠隔"和" 殊無興趣"來理解，實在也還是時代不同使然罷。（《周作人與鮑耀明通信集》鮑耀明編，河南大學出版社2004年4月版）
