Anthology of Japanese Literature: From the Earliest Era to the Mid-Nineteenth Century
Keene opens a thousand-year conversation. Poets and dramatists, court ladies and wandering monks - their voices layer together like sediment, each era adding its own music. The selections move from ancient ceremony to earthy humor, showing how literature grows and changes while staying essentially human. For readers who want to understand how a culture talks to itself across centuries.
