Abstract Kenji Miyazawa is referred to in Patrick D. Murphy's Literature of Nature: An International Sourcebook (1998) as a Japanese author who wrote about the natural world. Miyazawa is now notable for the va...riety of his works, which include fantasies, poetry, tanka, and plays, and in which various natural creatures appear. In Restaurant of Many Orders, he wrote nine fantasies describing the communication between people and wild animals. This paper shows how Miyazawa's stories are related to the Buddhist text, The Lotus Sutra, which he was influenced by, and focuses in particular on the transformation in his ecological philosophy between the collection of short stories Restaurant of Many Orders and ''Yodaka no Hoshi", both of which were written around 1921.show more
