Description

[Machine Translation] For 70 years since the end of World War II, it has been implicitly believed that the ideal attitude for writers is to remain neutral without expressing their political positions. However, with the passage of the Specified Secret Protection Bill and the so-called "Conspiracy Crime," freedom of speech is now at a crossroads, and the traditional stance regarding "politics and literature" is being fundamentally reexamined. In this emergency dialogue between Jiro Asada, former president of the Japan PEN Club, and Shinobu Yoshioka, current president of the club, they sound the alarm against the nightmare of "suppression of speech," which can no longer be said to be an imaginary reality in an "age of inability to speak" filled with a sense of entrapment.

Description in Japanese

ペンの力 (集英社新書) / 浅田次郎/著 吉岡忍/著

戦後七〇年間、暗黙のうちに、政治的な立場を表明せずに中立を保つことが作家のとるべき理想的態度とされてきた。だが、特定秘密保護法案やいわゆる「共謀罪」が可決され、言論の自由が岐路に立たされつつあるいま、「政治と文学」をめぐる従来的なスタンスは根本から問い直されている。閉塞感にあふれた「もの言えぬ時代」の中で、日本ペンクラブ前会長・浅田次郎と現会長・吉岡忍が、もはや絵空事とはいえなくなった「言論弾圧」の悪夢に対して警鐘を鳴らした緊急対談。
