Biografie
Yukio Mishima (1925-1970) wurde nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zum Sprecher der jungen Generation, deren Heimatlosigkeit er zum Thema seines Werkes machte. Mit den vier großen Romanen "Schnee im Frühling", "Unter dem Sturmgott", "Der Tempel der Morgendämmerung" und "Die Todesmale des Engels", zusammengefasst unter dem Obertitel "Das Meer der Fruchtbarkeit", schloß er sein literarisches Werk ab, bevor er sich 1970 das Leben nahm.
