特集 : 大震災から三年 : 経済と世相関東大震災という大きな異変によって生じた人心や世相の変化 - 永井荷風, 水上瀧太郎, 久保田万太郎ら文学者たちはそれをいかにとらえ, 作品にうつしたか。三年前の東北の震災についても同じ問題を考えるにはいましばらくの時を要するが, そのための視座を定める材料を提供したい。How did writers such as Kafu Nagai, Takitaro Minakami, and Mantaro Kubota grasp and describe the changes in the general public's perception as well as social conditions arising from the Great Kanto earthquake upheaval? It seems necessary to wait for a period of time to consider the same problems caused by the Tohoku earthquake three years ago. The purpose of this study is to pave the way to establishing a viewpoint for a similar task concerning the new disaster.
