Abstract

Shin Eon-jun and Karashima interacted with Lu Xun during a similar period but their relationships with him proceeded in different directions. Shin Eon-jun participated in the independence movements in Korea, introduced Lu Xun from the progressive position, and actively reported the political situation and philosophical trends in China. On the other hand, Karashima put his major focus on Lu Xun and left wing literature, when introducing the new literature of China, but gradually revealed an opportunistic attitude and actively participated in promoting Japan’s “National Policy.”

Key words： Chosun Writers Association; “difference” and “conversation”; introduction of Chinese new literature; Karashima Takeshi; the left wing writers; Lu Xun; national policies of Japan; Shin Eon-jun
