Abstract

The article discusses literary processes in the Japanese literature of the XX century. Various theoretical views of scientists that appeared during this period were analyzed. The founders of the theory of neocensualism in the aesthetic concept of Yokomisu Riiti were Western writers Marcel Proust, James Joyce, Frans Kafka. Neosensualists seek to create a literary renewal under the slogan that the works of writers should be permeated with "sensations" and "feelings". The representatives of the current wanted to overcome the dogmatic norms developed in the literature with their egocentric content and set the task to show different and heterogeneous spectra as a response to the variability of reality. A vivid manifestation of neosensualists.
