Topic: Shinkokinshu


In the News (Thu 16 Feb 12)

  
  Saigyo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He lived alone for long periods in his life in Saga, Mt. Koya, Mt. Yoshino, Ise, and many other places, but he is more known for the many long, poetic journeys to he took to Northern Honshu that would later inspire Basho in his Narrow Road to the Deep Interior.
Some main collections of Saigyō's work are in the Sankashu, Shinkokinshu, and Shikashu.

 Shinkokinshu
Shinkokin Wakashu (informally, Shinkokinshu) is an anthology of nearly 2,000 Japanese poems (uta, or waka), all in the same standard prosodic form, 31 syllables in five measures.
The typology of the twenty books of Shinkokinshu was sufficient to encompass the entire range of topics considered suitable, as of the late 12th century, for the composition of court poetry, and thus gives a rough overview of how the world of poetic experience was delimited and partitioned at the time.
Especially significant for appreciating the changes in the topography of decorum which the editors of Shinkokinshu seemed intent on demarcating is the resulting exclusion of haikai (discordant or dissonant poems), which were included among poems of variant prosody in Kokinshu.

Otherwise, however, it is one of only a few exemplars of Shinkokinshu which can be believed to reliably reflect the state of the text as of the early 13th century.
Like all other such early manuscripts, it belongs to the so-called second stage of the lengthy editorial process, during which a number of poems (16 in the case of the Tamesuke manuscript) were marked for deletion yet retained within the text pending, we may assume, final editorial decisions.
All complete extant early manuscripts of Shinkokinshu date from the decade after the submission of an initial draft in 1205 during which various revisions were considered and a number of poems were marked by the editors for deletion.

The course continues through the Nara period (710-794), with its representative poetic collection, the Man'yoshu (759); and the Heian period (794-1185), with emphasis on the Kokinshu (905), the first of many poetic anthologies compiled by imperial command.
Attention is also given to the stylistically influential Shinkokinshu of 1205, an imperial anthology compiled against a background of decline in the economic and political power of the court elite that had ruled Japan unopposed for some centuries.
The latter half of the course stresses the dual themes of the breakdown of central authority and fragmentation of political power during the long medieval period (1185-1600) in Japan, alongside the diffusion and reworking of courtly aesthetic and literary principles among the common folk.

Remembering that Shinkokinshu poem, but seeing the cloudlessness of this night by contrast, Genji is painfully but sweetly reminded that he is now banished from the court
