The concept of romantic love has been increasingly come to be recognized as one of the key components in the development of a modern sensibility in fin-de-siècle Japan. This paper is an investigation of the development and understanding of romantic love ("ren'ai") as it is revealed in the Taiyō (The Sun) magazine between 1895 and 1905. The paper is part of the multidisciplinary research project on the Taiyō magazine directed by Professor Suzuki Sadami of the Nichibunken. The focus here is on culture, and more particularly on literature, as the phenomenal mode in which notions such as "love" come to manifest themselves in history. By the empirical investigation of general journals like Taiyō, we establish the base for a rewriting of cultural and literary history and also establish the ground for cross-cultural comparisons between Japanese and European modes of thought.
