The object of this paper is to show how farm youth adopted urban culture in the nineteen-thirties. We use a diary covering the 1930s kept by one young man born in 1915.
According to his diary, he read newspapers and magazines, listened to gramophone recordings and the radio and watched films very often. Further, he traveled to Tokyo once a year. As a consequence, he had a well-developed notion of the nature of urban life. He had a deep longing for urban life as it represented modern rationality to him. However, he strongly objected to the remark theory by men of culture in the city that the farm village life was wonderful. Because the actual arm village life was to be painful.
We conclude that this 1930s farm youth held two images of the city: the frivolous and objectionable.
