Tamenaga Shunsui

Tamenaga Shunsui (Japanese为 永 春水, real name: Sasaki Sadataka (佐 々 木 贞 高), Echizenya Chojiro; * 1790, † February 11, 1844 ) was a Japanese writer.

Tamenaga was the first author of Ninjōbon (人情 本), bourgeois love stories that are considered forerunners of the modern Japanese novel. After the early work Akegarasu nochi no masayume ( 1821-24 ), which he co-authored with his brother Ryūtei Rijo, Tamenaga published a series of novels whose titles intent pointed shunshoku ( spring colors ) on the genre, including Shunshoku Umegoyomi (1832 -33 ), Shunshoku Tatsumi no sono ( 1833-35 ), Shunshoku Megumi no hana (1838 ) and Shunshoku Ume mibune (1841 ). 1842 Ninjōbon were temporarily banned on the initiative of Spartan -minded government of roju Mizuno Tadakuni, Tamenaga was summoned and convicted, among other authors for interrogation. However, this did not detract from the further flowering of the genre.
