Soseki Natsume did sanzen in Kamakura Enkaku-ji Temple over the beginning in the next year from the end of the year of 1894 (Meiji 27). Expression on air of unworldliness is founded to most of Soseki works, but experience that returned to Tokyo is reflected best by the novel "gate" announced in 1910 (Meiji 43) by the Asahi Shimbun of Tokyo and Osaka without opening life and realization of this time.


This display to memorialize sanzen 130 years of Soseki.
