“Seaside” by Akutagawa Ryunosuke is a novella published in 1925. At the time of its publishment and even to this day, it was considered a small work by the writer. However, it is based on the personal experience of Akutagawa and it is thus necessary to analyze the work to better understand the author's intention. The novella is set in 1916, a year in which the author had made a successful mark for himself as a novelist and had decided on marrying his partner. The story about prostitutes and young girls who came across each other on the seaside in late summer shows the novelist's desire to look back on the sweet old times, before he became determined to be a serious breadwinner. The anxiety toward future plan set at the beach went with friends for summer after graduating college is conceivable. The past memories filled with anxiety about future is explicitly expressed in ‘seaside’, which finally led Akutagawa to work as both novelist and teacher from December after coming back from vacation at beach. K in dream cannot be specified, but “I” think it is a fish in the lake talking to him after waking from the dream. And “I” realizes that the fish is “myself” from the unconsciousness. After all, the anxiety about his career as novelist and teacher has created K and connected “myself” in the unconsciousness. Also, the girls that can be assumed as “women” who K wanted to make “me” meet in the dream are like lively “butterfly” filled with passion toward the main character. The girls must have been stimulation of Akutagawa's creative world that is newly reflected to him after 10 years. Akutagawa who already thought of death must have been missing the “joy” of two girls who were “dancing filled with joy”, Furthermore, as for Akutagawa, the year 1916 when he chose the life partner which is an important decision and successfully made debut to the literary world which is the most important thing as writer, must have been the most important year of his life. Akutagawa quickly starts writing the letter of proposal after coming back from the late ‘seaside’. In the end, the person who is always concerned about himself in his dream was Akutagawa himself but ten years older. Despite being attributed less weight among his works, “Seaside” reflects the deep desire of Akutagawa to make a turn in his literature and his life.
