Urban ambiguity
This article examines early twentieth-century Japanese writer Kajii Motojirō's short story 'Remon' ('The Lemon,' 1925) and explores the intersection of Kajii's descriptions and an emerging urbanscape in Kyoto.

Instead of taking note of transformations of the scenery or the frenzies of new experiences, 'Remon' illustrates the narra…

Divulging the permeable relationship between critical language and literary writing, this debate offered a crucial site in which the field of literature was cultivated. In addition, the writers' missives engendered a moment tha…
