미시마유키오(三島由紀夫)의 「문화방위론(文化防衛論)」 속 일본문화의 의미도출 과정 ‒테리 이글턴(Terry Eagleton)의 문화이론과의 비교연구‒

Abstract

This paper analyzes the process of deriving the meaning of culture in ‘Discussion on the Defense of Culture’ which is known as the representative work of Yukio Mishima’s cultural ideology and Emperor’s Theory. First, he mentions the problem of Japanese culturalism at the time, which is too vague a criticism, and first, he mentions the problem of Japanese culturalism at the time, which is too vague a criticism, and logically combines contradictions and leaps. Therefore, I read the last part of this paper, that is, from the conclusion, to the reverse, first check why Mishima proposed his own cultural theory, and then took a research method to examine what she holds on the basis. And as the basis for the comparison of Mishima’s cultural theory, the cultural theory of Terry Eagleton, a British cultural critic, was used as a comparison target. Enemy is a combination of contradictions and leaps. Therefore, I read the last part of this paper, the conclusion, the reverse, to see why Mishima proposed her own cultural theory, and then what was the basis for that? However, Mishima’s theory of culture was only a means to derive the “Emperor as a Cultural means” and his theory of culture and the theory of the Emperor had various contradictions with the concept of “Culture.” As a result, he gave up his attempts as a thinker and turned into an activist, leaving no further consideration of his ideas in writing until his death on November 25, 1970.
