Tsuneari Fukuda

was a Japanese dramatist, translator, and literary critic. From 1969 until 1983, he was a professor at Kyoto Sangyo University. He became a member of the Japan Art Academy in 1981.

His criticism of the pacifist Japanese establishment of the early post-Second World War era earned him early notoriety, though he is most well known for his translations of William Shakespeare's oeuvre into Japanese, starting with ''Hamlet'' in 1955. He was a frequent contributor to conservative magazines, such as ''Bungeishunjū'', ''Shokun'', and Jiyū. Called a "rhetorician", and a "conjuror of controversy", he frequently used cognitive reframing in his discourse. Provided by Wikipedia
