Abe Kobo
http://www.ibiblio.org/abekobo/
Developer: Mark Gibeau
Abe Kôbô (pron. "Ah-bay Koh-boh") (1924-1993) stands out from his contemporaries in postwar Japanese literature in a number of ways. His works differ dramatically from the subjective, ultra-realistic and autobiographical-esque style that characterizes a great deal of postwar literature in general and postwar Japanese literature in particular.

Kenji Miyazawa
http://www.kenji-world.net/english/
Developer: Laboratory for Inter-field Communication
Miyazawa Kenji has transcended the generations to become one of Japan's most read and best loved authors. Born over a hundred years ago in 1896 in Iwate Prefecture, he was only 37 at the time of his death. Kenji's literary works received scant attention during his lifetime and only two books were published before his passing: a collection of children's tales entitled "The Restaurant of Many Orders" and the first section of his most famous work of poetry, "Spring and Ashura." The remainder of the great number of children's stories and poems that he left behind was edited and published only posthumously, after which the richness and depth of his art finally gained wide recognition.

Natsume Sôseki (1867–1916)
http://www.eldritchpress.org/ns/soseki.html
Developer: Regnery Gateway
Natsume Sôseki, one of the premier novelists of modern Japan, was the literary name of Natsume Kinnosuke. His early novels includes the lightly satirical Wagahai wa neko de aru (I Am a Cat, 1905-06), Botchan (1906), Sanshirô (1908), Sorekara (And Then, 1909) and Mon (1910). Sôseki suffered severe ulcer attacks beginning in 1910, after completing Mon. He continued to write and lecture, producing his last complete (and first autobiographical) novel Michikusa (Grass on the Wayside) in 1915, but succumbed to ulcer complications in 1916 before he could complete Meian (Light and Darkness).

Mori Ôgai  (1862–1922)
http://www.jef.or.jp/en/jti/200301_010.html
Developer: Japan Economic Foundation
Mori Ôgai was the literary name of Mori Rintarô, the son of the doctor to the daimyô of Tsuwano province (in present-day Shimane Prefecture). In 1889, he published a collection of translated poetry called Omokage (Vestiges)which is considered as the first poetic anthology in Japanese to successfully convey a sense of the aesthetic qualities of Western poetry. Some other works include Maihime (The Dancing Girl, 1890), Utakata no ki (Foam on the Waves, 1890), and Fumizukai (The Courier, 1891). These works, together with Futabatei Shimei’s Ukigumo (The Drifting Cloud, 1887) are often considered to mark the beginnings of a truly modern Japanese literature.
