February – Myōjō ("Bright Star" or "Morning Star"), a monthly literary magazine, begins publication in Japan, running until November 1908. It is the organ of the Shinshisha ("New Poetry Society") founded in 1899 by Yosano Tekkan (who becomes editor-in-chief and who revives the magazine after it first goes defunct in 1908). The magazine is initially known for its development and promotion of a modernized version of the 31-syllable tanka poetry. Famous contributors include Yosano Akiko, Hagiwara Sakutaro, Ishikawa Takuboku, Iwano Homei, Kitahara Hakushu, Noguchi Yonejiro, Kinoshita Rigen and Sato Haruo; and the magazine is advised by Mori Ōgai, Ueda Bin and Baba Kocho. Myōjō gradually transforms itself from purely tanka poetry to a sophisticated journal promoting the visual arts as well as Western-style poetry, and becomes an influential publication in Japanese poetry.
