Abstract

This text is sustained by some fragments of the literary work of the japanese writer Yukio Mishima, in order to establish correspondences among elements of the fiction and events of the life of the author. The most important conflicts of the author, shown at his autobiographical work and highlighted by his biographers, find a transcendence in a creation of great esthetical value.
