Summary/Abstract: The work of the Japanese writer, Yukio Mishima, is distinguished in its time on the one hand by its complexity, covering various areas from the novel to the essay, poetry, and plays, and on the other hand by the variety of innovations it proposes, the writer demonstrating remarkable abilities of reinvention from one writing to another. Considered by most literary critics the most "Western" of the Japanese writers of the 20th century, Mishima manages to maintain around himself and his work that impenetrable mystery in which antinomies merge and coexist, vibrating in unison with the writer's feelings.
