The End of "Kokoro

　I'm going to be a little harsh again, so please don't read this if you're faint of heart. I think all the participants of note are in the position of wanting to tell something. There is freedom of speech, so anyone can write anything they want. While slander and defamation are not allowed, people can write whatever they want about interesting things. In reality, however, there are times when it is annoying. If you are trying to look up something old, you may be annoyed to find only characters from games or anime. Also, in various languages around the world, people are now muttering, "Soseki Natsume translated I love you as the moon is beautiful," which is already a "mistake. You just can't pretend it didn't happen. This kind of information is noise. The noise makes it difficult to convey what is really going on.

　There are some people who are professionals in the field of writing, and they publish their thoughts on Soseki's "Kokoro". For example

　Since this person seems to be an educator, I'll point out something a little harsh. It is wrong to call the teacher a coward. It's not an opinion that I like, it's a mistake.

　It is a mistake in many ways, but I will focus on the "no ending in sight" part this time. In "Kokoro", "I" appear as the writer, which is rare. This format is the same as in "The Knight Commander's Killer. The speaker of "The Knight Commander's Killer" is a portrait painter, but he is writing a novel. The "I" in "Kokoro" seems to be writing a newspaper novel. He is recollecting the events of the past. That's why the beginning is after the doctor's suicide note.

　From the beginning, I thought that there was something mysterious about him that made him unapproachable. And yet, there was a strong feeling that I had to get close to him. I may be the only one among many who felt this way about him. But for me alone, this intuition was later proven to be true, and I am glad and relieved that I had the intuition to foresee it, even if I am called youthful or ridiculous. A person who can love human beings, a person who cannot help loving them, and yet a person who cannot open his hands to embrace what is about to enter his bosom. (Soseki Natsume, "Kokoro")

　The refreshing feeling at the beginning of the story and the "I" that fully affirms the teacher is the present of "Kokoro. Most people do not understand the meaning of this intuition, which was later proven by facts. The first thing to understand here is "by the doctor's will. It can also be interpreted as "by Shizuka," but first let's understand that there was evidence that "I" had to approach the doctor.

　Surprisingly, many professional readers, including Kojin Karatani, have made the curious interpretation that the speaker is somehow attracted to the teacher and approaches him. You write, "I have indeed found my teacher among these miscellaneous shoes. In the case of the unknown, it would be, "The person I saw among these crowded shoes was my teacher.

　Finally, I said to the teacher that I thought I had seen him somewhere, but I just couldn't remember where. The young me wondered if he felt the same way I did. (Soseki Natsume, "Kokoro")
　If I don't get K's forgiveness, the teacher's guilt will never go away. Without K's forgiveness, the teacher's guilt will never go away, and even if this "I" were a living reincarnation of the teacher, it wouldn't be as refreshing as it was at the beginning. And it would be funny to write about someone who can't help but love himself.

　This is what I wrote in my reading meter.

The person explaining the story can't read at all. I" approaches the teacher out of nostalgia. And the reason why the teacher was so special is evidenced by the fact that the teacher's will. In other words, "I" am implied to be K's reincarnation. The teacher's long suicide note can be read as a story in which "I", who has no significant history or life, relives the past.
　The ending of "Kokoro" as a work of art is in the present where the teacher is totally affirmed. Without reading the teacher's suicide note, the logic of "being able to love people" and "not being able to open your hands and hug those who try to enter your bosom" cannot be seen.

　Many high school students have expressed their honest impressions that the ending was dark, but it made them think. I don't want to catch those people and get involved with them every time. However, if you have a desire to convey something, and believe that you are qualified to convey something to someone, sometimes you need to check your writing to make sure that you are not being cynical in order to confirm your qualification. When I read "Soseki Ronshusei" by Kojin Karatani, I feel embarrassed to read it because it is mostly full of misinterpretations and perversions. In the same way, he wrote that "Kojin" was divided, and he could not see the end result.

　As an easy-to-understand comparison, "Kokoro" and "Kojin" are similar to "Botchan" in form. I don't think there are many people who don't understand this structure, and I don't think there are many people who don't write essays without understanding it. However, when I read the impressions of foreigners, I found that none of them correctly understood that the intuition was later proven on the basis of facts. Well, I don't see that among the Japanese either, but I was surprised to find that there was one person who noticed it, and he denied it to the hilt.

　Kokoro" has the same structure as "Botchan," in that the teacher is already dead and the story takes the form of a recollection. It doesn't seem to be right after his death either. The position of the

　I wrote about it in this book. It seems that no one realizes that Ichiro in "Kojin" is already dead. This is because they have taken the liberty of splitting him up. If you are interested in redoing modern literature, I suggest you start with this book.
