Yukio Mishima: the Death of a Man

內容簡介

內容簡介 2020年，三島由紀夫逝世屆滿50週年。在他決定自殺的前一年，由日本攝影大師篠山紀信掌鏡、他本人一手主導場景與造型設計的黑白攝影集《男之死》(THE DEATH OF A MAN)開始展開為期將近一年的拍攝。從這照片的構成中，不難窺見三島由紀夫深埋心中、計畫許久的自決決心。在拍下此攝影集最後一張照片後的一週，三島由紀夫闖入自衛隊、在激昂地登高發表演說後切腹身亡--而這本攝影集也因此未能如期發行。 三島由紀夫震撼人心的自決如今一轉眼已過了半個世紀，這本塵封的攝影集終要完整公諸於世、正式發行! 回看猶如自身死亡預演的此書，透過篠山紀信精準深刻的人物攝像功力、追想三島由紀夫的著作與其人其言其行，意義分外深重。 In commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the death of Yukio Mishima, one of the leading figures in modern literature, The Death of a Man presents a sublime--and often shocking--visual record of the last few months prior to his sensational ritual suicide in November 1970. The author of masterworks such as The Temple of the Golden Pavilion and Forbidden Colors, Mishima, a celebrated figure in postwar world literature, remains a controversial figure in Japan. His reactionary politics and the spectacular nature of his death had so profoundly impacted Japanese society that images associated with the event were never publicly shown. In the months prior to the November incident, he enlisted Kishin Shinoyama to create a photographic, radical work of fiction, a photo essay on the death of the Japanese "everyman." In images often suffused with militarism and eroticism, a parade of men, including a sailor, a construction worker, a fisherman, and a soldier, are shown meeting grisly, dramatic ends. Published for the very first time, these stylized images of men dying alone serve as prologues to the real-world culmination of Mishima's pursuit of total art. Locked in a performance with one inescapable end, Mishima offered his own body as its final act. With texts by Mishima and his closest intimates and first-person reminiscences of his final moments, this book promises to be an unprecedented interrogation on the nature of performance and the role of artist as actor, provocateur, and revolutionary.
