was a monthly literary magazine published in Japan between February 1900 and November 1908. The name ''Myōjō'' can be translated as either Bright Star or Morning Star. The magazine was the organ of a poetry circle called ''Shinshisha'' (New Poetry Society) which had been founded by Yosano Tekkan in 1899. Myōjō was initially known for its development and promotion of a modernized version of the 31-syllable ''tanka'' poetry. Famous contributors such as Yosano Akiko transformed the traditional poetry with a sensual style in the romantic movement. Other important contributors included Hagiwara Sakutaro, Ishikawa Takuboku, Iwano Homei, Kitahara Hakushu, Noguchi Yonejiro, Kinoshita Rigen, and Sato Haruo. The magazine was advised by Mori Ōgai, Ueda Bin and Baba Kocho, with Yosano Tekkan remaining as editor-in-chief of the publication. ''Myōjō'' gradually transformed itself from purely ''tanka'' poetry, to a sophisticated journal promoting the visual arts and western style poetry as well. It is regarded as having a crucial influence on the development of Japanese poetry and literature in the early 20th century. ''Myōjō'' was short lived, as internal dissension dissolved the ''Shinshisha'' literary circle. Many of its original members helped create a successor literary journal, ''Subaru'' (''The Pleiades''). ''Myōjō'' was revived from 1921-1927 by Tekkan, and again from 1947-1949. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Myōjō」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
