Tatsuzō Ishikawa
was a Japanese author. He was the winner of the first Akutagawa Prize.
==Biography==
Born in Yokote, Akita Prefecture, Japan, Ishikawa was raised in several places, including Kyoto and Okayama Prefecture. He entered Waseda University's literature department but left before graduating. In 1930 he left Japan for Brazil and worked on a farm. Ishikawa won the first Akutagawa Prize in 1935 for ''Sōbō'' (蒼氓), a novel based on his experiences in Brazil.
In December 1937, Ishikawa was dispatched to Nanjing as a special reporter by the ''Chūō Kōron'' publishing company. After landing in Shanghai, he arrived in Nanjing in January 1938, weeks after the fall of the city to the Imperial Japanese Army. Embedded in a squadron later connected to the Nanking Massacre, Ishikawa wrote a fictional account (''Ikite iru Heitai'' 生きている兵隊) of the atrocities suffered by Chinese civilians as well as the widespread pessimism of the Japanese soldiers. Due to its controversial subject matter, nearly one-fourth of its contents was censored even before it was scheduled to be serialized in ''Chūō Kōron''. Still, the magazine was removed from circulation the day it was published and Ishikawa, the editor, and three publishers were arrested under the 23rd article of the "Newspaper Law" (''Shinbunshi Hō'' 新聞紙法) for "causing disturbance to peace and order". Ishikawa was sentenced to four months imprisonment and placed on probation for three years. ''Ikite iru Heitai'' was not to be published in its entirety until after the war, in December 1945. For a complete English translation, see ''Soldiers Alive'' (Trans. Zeljko Cipris, Honolulu: University of Hawai'i Press, 2003).
Ishikawa continued to be an active writer after the war, and in 1969, he won the Kikuchi Kan Prize (''Kikuchi Kan Shō'' 菊池寛賞) for his contributions to Japanese literature.
