Saneatsu Mushanokōji (武者小路 実篤(實篤), Mushanokōji Saneatsu; May 12, 1885 – April 9, 1976) was a Japanese novelist, playwright, poet, artist, and philosopher active during the late Taishō and Shōwa periods of Japan. Later on in life he requested that the pronunciation of his surname (as far as was concerned) be changed from the usual Mushanokōji, to Mushakōji, but without much success. He was nicknamed Musha and Futo-o by his colleagues. Read more on Wikipedia
