Produktbeschreibung

Book fourteen of the Man‘yoshu (‘Anthology of Myriad Leaves’) continues Alexander Vovin‘s new English translation of this 20-volume major work which was compiled between c. 759 and 782 AD, making it the earliest and largest Japanese poetic anthology in existence and thus the most important compendium of Japanese culture of the Asuka and Nara periods.

Book fourteen is the third volume of the Man‘yoshu to be published to date (following books fifteen (2009) and five (2011)) and contains 230 tanka poems, together with a few significant variants, bringing the total to 249.
