Ushio (in Japanese). collected in complete33 2003, pp.478–480 The threat of destruction, which had previously consumed his thoughts, now recedes from his mind. For the first time, he glimpses the fleeting wonders found in human frailty. Mankind, he now sees, will go on without him, just as it always has. Able at last to let go, he sneaks out of the hospital with his family’s help; and on a nearby hill, goes to meet the long-awaited UFO. Mishima was enrolled at the age of six in the elite Gakushūin, the Peers' School in Tokyo, which had been established in the Meiji period to educate the Imperial family and the descendants of the old feudal nobility. [34] At 12, Mishima began to write his first stories. He read myths ( Kojiki, Greek mythology, etc.) and the works of numerous classic Japanese authors as well as Raymond Radiguet, Jean Cocteau, Oscar Wilde, Rainer Maria Rilke, Thomas Mann, Friedrich Nietzsche, Charles Baudelaire, l'Isle-Adam, and other European authors in translation. He also studied German. After six years at school, he became the youngest member of the editorial board of its literary society. Mishima was attracted to the works of the Japanese poet Shizuo Itō ( 伊東静雄, Itō Shizuo), poet and novelist Haruo Satō ( 佐藤春夫), and poet Michizō Tachihara ( 立原道造), who inspired Mishima's appreciation of classical Japanese waka poetry. Mishima's early contributions to the Gakushūin literary magazine Hojinkai-zasshi ( 輔仁会雑誌) included haiku and waka poetry before he turned his attention to prose. [35] In 1965, Mishima wrote the play Madame de Sade ( サド侯爵夫人, Sado kōshaku fujin) that explores the complex figure of the Marquis de Sade, traditionally upheld as an exemplar of vice, through a series of debates between six female characters, including the Marquis' wife, the Madame de Sade. At the end of the play, Mishima offers his own interpretation of what he considered to be one of the central mysteries of the de Sade story—the Madame de Sade's unstinting support for her husband while he was in prison and her sudden decision to renounce him upon his release. [94] [95] Mishima's play was inspired in part by his friend Tatsuhiko Shibusawa's 1960 Japanese translation of the Marquis de Sade's novel Juliette and a 1964 biography Shibusawa wrote of de Sade. [96] Shibusawa's sexually explicit translation became the focus of a sensational obscenity trial remembered in Japan as the "Sade Case" (サド裁判, Sado saiban), which was ongoing as Mishima wrote the play. [94] In 1994, Madame de Sade was evaluated as the "greatest drama in the history of postwar theater" by Japanese theater criticism magazine Theater Arts.
