After receiving an education at the Moscow School for the Blind and the Royal Normal College for the Blind, in London, where he studied Esperanto and music, Eroshenko travelled to Japan, China, Myanmar, and India, working at times as a musician, writer, teacher, and masseur. In Japan, he befriended a variety of left-wing artistic figures and activists, who taught him Japanese and encouraged him to write fairy tales. Although Eroshenko was expelled from Japan in 1921 for his anarchist and socialist connections, his tales attracted the attention of Chinese modernist Lu Xun, who famously translated them and welcomed the young author to his home in Beijing) Wikipedia, October 31, 2022 (Vasili Yakovlevich Eroshenko (Russian: Василий Яковлевич Ерошенко Ukrainian: Василь Якович Єрошенко) (12 January 1890-23 December 1952) was a blind writer, translator, esperantist, linguist, traveler, poet and teacher. He wrote in Esperanto and Japanese; Career: In April 1914 Eroshenko, due to contacts with the Japanese Esperantists, left for Japan. He studied massage in a school center for the blind in Tokyo, after learning their reputation in the practice. There he promoted Esperanto among the blind students. His first novels, in Japanese, were published there) |
