Inagaki Taruho

Inagaki Taruho ( Japanese 稲 垣 足 穂 ; born December 26, 1900 in Ōsaka ; † October 25, 1977 ) was a Japanese writer .

After starting out as a painter, Inagaki established himself in 1923 with the novel Issen inchibyō monogatari as a representative of modern literature in Japan. Due to his alcoholism, there were hardly any literary works worth mentioning in the next few years. It was only after the Second World War that he emerged with works such as Miroku and Karera , in which he dealt with homosexuality. Numerous essays on the same topic followed. For Shōnen'ai no bigaku (Aesthetics of Pederasty) he received the Grand Prize for Japanese Literature in 1969 .
