Yang Kuiとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Yang Kui 楊逵 (also Yang K'uei, 1906–1985) was a prominent writer in Taiwan's Japanese colonial period. Raised in Japanese-language schools, he went to the Japanese mainland, where he experienced both persecution and acceptance, especially by Japanese communists. Under these influences he became a proletarian novelist. After the war, he was imprisoned by the Kuomintang government from 1949 to 1961. After being released from prison, he had to learn the Chinese language from his granddaughter, as Japanese had been the common language of Taiwan until the time of his imprisonment.
