This paper discusses one of Miyazawa Kenji's folkloric fiction, “Futari no Yakunin,” which, despite the author’s description as folkloric, was not evaluated as a folkloric work in past studies. This paper indicates a bias in previous views of folklore, serving as the premise of the study, and in the direction of academic interest. In addition, by borrowing the concepts of “daily narrative” from the study of oral literature and “contemporary folktale” from the study of folktales, this paper intends to deconstruct the bias that has alienated “Futari no Yakunin,” and reposition the work as a folkloric tale (min-dan).
