Ōsugi Sakae (大杉 栄, January 17, 1885 – September 16, 1923) was a radical Japanese anarchist. He published numerous anarchist periodicals, helped translate western anarchist essays into Japanese for the first time, and created Japan's first Esperanto school in 1906. He, his lover, anarcha-feminist Itō Noe, and his nephew were murdered in what became known as the Amakasu incident.
In June 1920 Osugi was contacted by the Korean Yi Ch'un-Suk, who persuaded him to come to Shanghai and meet with Asian Communists involved with the Far Eastern Bureau of the Comintern.[1]
Director Kiju Yoshida made Eros + Massacre (エロス＋虐殺) in 1969, about Ōsugi's life[2]
