They Reflect The Years In Which Reformminded Leaders Struggled To Help Japan Catch Up With The West. Dramatists No Less Than Others Sought Ways In Which To Bring Their Traditional Art Into The Modern World And To Bring International Respectability To The National Stage. Included Are Kabuki Dance Plays That Strive To Resemble N And Kygen; Historical Dramas That Abandon Theatrical Fantasy And Opt For Accurate Reproduction Of Ancient Manners; Domestic Dramas Featuring Colorful Heroes And Heroines; Pieces That Introduce Faddish Western Properties And Behavior; And A Play That Bridges The Gap Between The Conventions Of Classical Kabuki, Shakespeare, And Modern Psychological Drama. Dominating The Era Are The Works Of Kawatake Mokuami, The Last Great Kabuki Playwright, While The Dramaturgy Of Literary Scholar Tsubouchi Shy Brings Kabuki Into The Twentieth Century.
