In this paper we derive Hirota equations associated with the simply laced affine Lie algebras g{sup (1)}, where g is one of the simply laced complex Lie algebras a{sub n},d{sub n},e{sub 6},e{sub 7} or e{sub 8}, defined by finite order automorphisms of g which we call Lepowsky automorphisms. In particular, we investigate the Hirota equations for Lepowsky automorphisms of e{sub 6} defined by the cuspidal class E{sub 6} of the Weyl group W(E{sub 6}) of e{sub 6}. We also investigate the relationship between the Lepowsky automorphisms of the simply laced complex Lie algebras g and the conjugate canonical automorphisms defined by Kac. This analysis is applied to identify the canonical automorphisms for the cuspidal class E{sub 6} of e{sub 6}.
