The origins of the legend of Anju and Zushio, children cruelly torn from their mother and sold to Sansho, are lost in the Middle Ages, but it was “Ôgai” Mori Rintarô who gave it literary status when he published the historical tale Sansho dayu in 1915. The analysis details the important symbolic role played by birds in freedom and the hunting of birds. The bird, symbol of freedom and autonomy. In parallel, an antagonism, the hunting of birds. Death and the bird complement a bipolarity of symbolic content present throughout the work. ; Les origines de la légende d’Anju et Zushio, enfants cruellement arrachés à leur mère et vendus à Sansho, se perdent dans le Moyen Âge, mais c’est “Ôgai” Mori Rintarô qui lui a donné un statut littéraire en publiant le récit historique Sansho dayu en 1915. L’analyse détaille le rôle symbolique important joué par les oiseaux: l’oiseau, symbole de liberté et d’autonomie et en parallèle, un antagonisme, la chasse aux oiseaux. L’oiseau et la mort complètent une bipolarité du contenu symbolique présent tout au long de l’oeuvre.
