Abstract

It was considered forcusing on Tanizaki's work “tattoo” (the 2nd, number three “new thought”, 1910 and 11) and “Gyoutarou” (“Chuo Koron” 1915 and 9) how the kabuki which was being seen was reflected by his work also when Tanizaki was young by writing, how the world of beauty as a soldier showed. When paraphrasing an evil woman-like lady from kabuki, Tanizaki came to recognize “soldier” from an image of “bad old woman”. And that an evil woman-like lady does an act cruel to a man through Kabuki stood in Tanizaki's recognition and showed. Tanizaki who picked beauty out from kabuki in it with a concept as an evil woman-like woman = a devil-like woman embodied that as “soldier's beauty” in “tattoo”. It's said that Gyoutarou who is a novelist thinks it's a concept of the best beauty to embody the image of “evil woman” which shows in kabuki in babyhood and a play in a female body and be conquered by its female (soldier) conversely. Tanizaki often reflects beauty as the soldier who was formed by the agency which shows into kabuki, a play and an illustrated storybook in two works.
