Title
The Poetic Memoirs of Lady Daibu,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
This is the first English translation of a set of memoirs covering almost 50 years in the life of a Japanese noblewoman in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Combining the qualities of a poetry collection and an autobiography, the work is structured around some 350 poems that focus on various incidents or remembrances. The work is of interest not only for its literary merit and its particularly evocative blend of prose and poetry, but also for its historical glimpses of the stirring events of the Genpei War, the subject of the great romantic war epic The Tale of the Heike.
