Fame to Shimazaki came after the publication in 1904-1905 of the novel "Hakai" ("Broken Covenant"), devoted to the problem of social inequality - the Japanese belonging to the caste of outcastes - "eta". Shimazaki Toson (1872-1943) graduated from Meiji Gakuin Christian University. Together with Tokoku Kitamura, he published the literary magazine Bungakukai. He contributed greatly to the development of naturalism in Japan. His father was Masaki Shimazaki, a scientist. In 1899, Shimazaki moved with his wife from the capital to the remote province. For seven years he worked as a teacher in one of the rural schools in northern Japan. During these years, he had enough to look at the monotonous and monotonous rural life, which later became the subject of many of his works. He was baptized, but Christianity did not have a significant impact on him. The historical merit of the poet Shimazaki in the history of Japanese poetry is that he (together with Doi Bansui) finally approved in Japan the form of the so-called "new verse" (Shintaisi), which sharply broke with the traditions of feudal poetry and turned into the main type of new Japanese poetry.
