On November 25, 1970, the famous Japanese writer Yukio Mishima (born 1925) committed a ritual suicide in protest against the Westernization of Japan. The lines that lead to this act, the tension between the person and his work, between the Japanese tradition and the Western living culture form the basic pattern of this essay, in which Erasmus Prize winner Marguerite Yourcenar reconstructs Mishima's reality from her own broad, erudite backgrounds. Good looking! A lot of Mishima has been translated into Dutch.
