  Hikaru Genji - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hikaru Genji (光源氏, "The brilliant Genji") is the protagonist of The Tale of Genji.
Hikaru Genji was born the second son of emperor Kiritsubo by his lower ranked consort, Kiritsubo no Koi.
As a result of their forbidden love, she bore a boy (later Emperor Reizei) to Genji, but no one knew the truth of his birth, and the child was raised as a prince and son of Emperor Kiritsubo.

 Minamoto clan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mitsunaka's eldest son, Minamoto no Yorimitsu (948-1021), became the protégé of Fujiwara no Michinaga; another son, Yorinobu (968-1048) suppressed the rebellion of Taira no Tadatsune in 1032.
Thus, the Seiwa Genji line proved to be the most strong and dominant Minamoto line during the late Heian period with Minamoto no Yoritomo eventually forming the Kamakura Shogunate and becoming shogun in 1192.
The protagonist of the classical Japanese novel The Tale of Genji, Hikaru no Genji, was bestowed the name Minamoto for political reasons by his father the emperor, and was delegated to civilian life and a career as an imperial officer.

 Sensei's Library: Names In Hikaru No Go
Hikaru is the nickname of Prince Genji in the Genji Monogatari ('The Tale of Genji'), written circa 1000 AD by Murasaki Shikibu.
Fujiwara no Sai claims to have known Murasaki Shikibu (author of The Tale of Genji) when he was alive and working as a go teacher at the Imperial Court of Japan, which makes about as direct a link as you can have between Hikaru Genji and Shindo Hikaru.
BTW, that Hikaru's name is written in katakana indicates that the kanji his parents (or in fact the author) chose are not in the official jōyō- (1945 kanji learned in school) or jinmei-yō- (284 additional kanji for names) lists.

 the tale of genji
Genji Monogatari (源氏物語) is a classic work of Japanese literature written by the Japanese noblewoman Murasaki-shikibu in the 11th century.
Written in the beginning of the 11th century or earlier, it is generally considered to be one of the first recorded examples of the novel form.
This charming, beautiful and courteous hero is amazingly similar in style to the Spanish, fifteen century Amadis de Gaula (including its complete lack of peasants), and is a sharp contrast to the almost barbaric heroes found in literature.

 Summaries of Papers Presented at the 2000 ATJ Seminar
Hashimoto Osamu's modern translation of "Genji monogatari," "Yoohen Genji monogatari" (Tokyo: Chuokoronsha, 1991), is quite unique compared with other modern translations because of its monologue style of Hikaru Genji for the first forty-one chapters, from Kiritsubo to Maboroshi.
The identity of Hikaru Genji, which derives from the viewpoint of modern men, sets Hashimoto's translation apart from the original, and it produces the unexpected transformation that he intended.
I argue that, as the author was not directly involved in the accident described in the former, it is no more than a minor piece commending the good nature of the ordinary folks; in contrast, the latter is a true masterpiece with a serious theme crystallized from the author's personal experience of some life-threatening mishap.

 THEM Anime Reviews 4.0 - The Tale of Genji
This is an adaptation of Murasaki Shikibu's literary masterpiece, which is the world's first novel, set in the Heian period of Japanese history, chronicling the life and loves of Hikaru Genji, retainer to the royal court and son of the Emperor by a courtier.
Genji himself (and every other character, for that matter) is fairly impersonally depicted, and though the inner angst and psychological complexes (move over Hamlet!) are evident, surely they could have been analyzed in greater detail.
It's no substitute, but if you haven't read it, you now know you should, and if you have, then you get to watch it summarized with pretty pictures across your screen.
