Abstract

Under the title Entropic Aspects of Contemporary Japanese Culture, this paper examines both sociological and personal aspects of Japanese literature. The paper examines concrete examples of desolated human existence and the loss of human identity at a historical moment faced with the prospect of a future where humans work together with AI or are dominated by it and the realization that human history does not necessarily move toward progress. Accordingly, it turns out that the end of capitalist development is not necessarily optimistic. Especially the paper illustrates that, from the 1990s onwards, through the Great Hanshin􋹲Awaji Earthquake and the Omjin Rikyo Incident, how the development of Japanese society, which has continued for 50 years after the war, became dangerous with degeneration. Lastly, through the literary work “Confession,” published in such a social situation, the paper investigates how much the inner world of human beings is devastated.
