  Fujiwara no Teika Criticism and Essays
A member of the influential Fujiwara clan, Teika belonged to the Mikohidari branch of this aristocratic family whose members were part of a long literary tradition, enjoyed multitudinous links to the Japanese imperial court, and were notorious for their affinity for political intrigue.
Teika's connection with the group would culminate in 1193 with his contributions to the Roppayakuban uta-awase, a sizable and decisive contest that pitted Teika's innovative poetics against the more established and traditional works of his conservative contemporaries, the Rokujō poets, and brought Teika unprecedented attention as a writer.
Teika's writings can be divided into three general categories: original works of poetry and poetic sequences, anthologies and critical pieces, and literary prose, including a diary and a lengthy romantic tale.

Fujiwara no Sada'ie (better known to history as Teika) (1162-1241) is one of the four greatest Japanese poets.
Teika's relationship with Gotoba was to sour, leading to a decline in his fortunes, but his poetic reputation remained high, and he was rehabilitated after Gotoba was exiled by the Shogunate in 1221.
Teika also, like his father, championed the Genji Monogatari, and his work produced the texts upon which are based modern editions of the Genji, the Ise Monogatari and, indeed, the Kokinshû itself.

Son of the poet Shunzei, Teika ranks among the greatest of Japanese poets.
While his style evolved considerably throughout his career, Teika is best known for verse of haunting beauty and rich symbolism.
Eventually, quarrels among Teika’s descendants produced the Reizei, Kyogoku, and Nijo schools of poetic tradition, each claiming direct transmission of Teika’s teachings.

Teika was born to a minor and distant branch of the aristocratic and courtly clan, the Fujiwara, in 1162, sometime after the Fujiwara regents had lost their political pre-eminence in the Imperial court during the Hōgen Rebellion.
Teika's goals as the senior male of his branch were to inherit and cement his father's position in poetry, and to advance his own reputation (thereby also improving the political fortunes of his own clan in the court).
Teika was asked to participate in a poem competition on the 13th of the second month; Teika declined, citing as a reason the anniversary of his mother's death 26 years previous, in 1194.

 Fujiwara Teika and the Tale of Matsura
Fujiwara Teika is known among students of Japanese literature as the premier poet and literary scholar of early thirteenth century Japan; he has even been called "the single most important influence in the entire history of classical poetry" (Robert Brower, "The Reizei Family Documents," Monumenta Nipponica 36.4, 1981).
The tale is of interest for the way in which it reflects aesthetic ideals that were prominent in Teika's poetry.
The Tale of Matsura: Fujiwara Teika's Experiment in Fiction provides a complete, annotated translation of the tale along with an introductory essay and an appendix that brings together the evidence on authorship and dating.

 EAJS 2005, Premodern Literature, Abstracts
During her marriage to Fujiwara Teika 's successor Tameie (1198-1275), Abutsu-ni (1222-1283) received numerous copies of literary works and documents related to the teaching and transmission of waka.
Abutsu 's claim to her husband 's literary heritage, her legal battle for his property, and her assertion that her sons were the rightful heirs to his legacy resulted in a series of court cases and the eventual splintering of the Mikohidari lineage into three lines, the Nijô, Kyôgoku, and Reizei.
By considering Abutsu's appropriation of Teika's poetic legacy and her self-representation as an educator and guardian of the teachings of Shunzei, Teika, and Tameie, I will show how she attempted to carve out a place for herself in the Mikohidari family.

Despite all that, Teika came to the point where he felt he had to fashion his legacy for future generations, Atkins continued.
Before Teika's death in 1241, the poet became a spin doctor of sorts, trying to shape later interpretations of his life, views and achievements.
After Teika's death, other poets and playwrights forged his writings to give the impression that he would have approved of the actions of the elite ruling class.

Fujiwara no Sadaie, more commonly known as Fujiwara Teika (1162-1241), was acknowledged as the greatest poet and compiler of poetry of his time.
This is the largest collection of poems by Teika in English; the translations are extremely wordy and not very poetic, but aided by extensive notes.
This study focuses on the many simple and subtle methods Teika used to order poems in his anthologies--most of which are completely lost on the uninitiated reader.

The accompanying text is an electronic edition of Kokinshu based on a facsimile of the manuscript of Fujiwara Teika generally known as the Date Family text.
This is the only extant publicly available text of Kokinshu in Teika's hand, and has been used as the copytext for a number of recent modernized typographic editions.
As far as seemed reasonably possible, with due respect for the needs of modern readers, the text of the manuscript has not been emended, even in cases which modern scholars have quite reasonably decided are scribal errors.

In the following essay, Bundy evaluates the poetry of Teika's early collection Shogaku hyakushu, contrasting it with the verse of his father, Fujiwara no Shunzei, and pointing out the significance of Teika's manipulation of imagery rather than his cultivation of an emotionally compelling lyrical voice in this work.
In the following excerpt from his introduction to his translation of Teika's Shoji hyakushu, Brower examines the historical background and content of this varied and influential hundred-poem sequence.

 Session 28   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Paul Atkins shows how a fuller understanding of the "demon-quelling" style of waka first proposed by Fujiwara Teika may be attained by stepping beyond the realm of waka and examining its appropriation by Zeami and, especially, Zenchiku.
The critical limitation of such approaches is their reluctance to trace the full trajectory of the demon-quelling style out of the realms of waka and renga and into the noh treatises of the playwrights Zeami Motokiyo (1363–1443) and, especially, Komparu Zenchiku (1405–?).
A relatively obscure poet, Fujiwara Tameaki, was the central figure behind the development of both the pedagogical system of poetry initiations and the production of numerous secret commentaries.

(1) Fujiwara no Sari and (2) Fujiwara no Kozei, along with ONO NO MICHIKAZE, were renowned as the Sanseki (‘three brush traces’; Three Masters), so designated because of their accomplishments in both Chinese- and Japanese-style calligraphy, but several other members of the family also achieved fame as calligraphers or painters.
Two great legacies of the Fujiwara period and monuments to Fujiwara taste are the Hoodo (Phoenix Hall) of BYODOIN at Uji, south-east of Kyoto, and a sculpture installed within it of Amida (Skt Amitabha) by JOCHO.

Kenzan's ceramic designs frequently incorporate imagery from the texts of classical literature, particularly romantic prose-poetry narratives, such as the Tales of Ise and the Tales of Genji, and anthologies of verse composed between the tenth and thirteenth centuries.
The poetry, calligraphy style, and aesthetic mood of poet and critic Fujiwara Teika (1162–1241) infused the literature, handwriting style, and tea ceremony of Kenzan's day.
At his Narutaki workshop, Kenzan lavished care on exquisite sets of dishes and incense boxes bearing imagery from Teika's verses or from prose-poetry narratives, knowing these subjects would appeal to cultured townsmen.
