Life

Shigeharu was the second son of Tōsaku and Tora Nakano in Takaboku (now Sakai ) born. His father worked as a civil servant in the Ministry of Finance Tōsaku. Shigerharu also had three younger sisters. Nakano learned during his high school days Kubokawa Tsurujirō, with whom he began to write Tanka poetry. He studied German literature at the University of Tokyo.

Later, he joined with Marxism, founded Kubokawa and Hori Tatsuo literary magazine Roba and joined the movement of proletarian literature. In 1931 he joined the Communist Party of Japan. In 1932, he was therefore in custody. After two years of prison time he said to himself in 1934 by the party's going on, which he joined immediately after the end of the Second World War. From 1947 to 1950 he was a communist deputy in Sangiin, the newly created elected upper house of the national parliament, for the nationwide constituency. In 1958 he became a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, from which he was excluded in 1964 because of ideological differences.

Nakano published several novels, including Nami no aima ( Between the waves, 1930), Muragimo ( In the depths of the heart, 1954) and Kō otsu hei Party ( 1965-69 ), as well as a collection of poems. In 1955 he was awarded for Muragimo with the Mainichi Cultural Prize.
