Дзюндзо Сёно (яп. 庄野 潤三 Сё:но Дзюндзо, 1921—2009) — японский писатель, представитель литературной группы «третьих новых». Продолжал активно печататься до глубокой старости. Для творчества Сёно характерны фрагментарность, лаконичность, психологизм и безыскусное, но поэтичное отображение повседневности, ритм которой становится для него основой человеческой жизни. Основные сочинения: повести «Натюрморт» (静物, 1960, премия Синтёся), «Облако на закате» (夕べの雲, 1965, премия Ёмиури), «Складные картинки» (絵合せ, 1971, премия Номы). На русский язык переведён рассказ «На крыше» (屋根, 1971).
