	Taiheiki
		The Taiheiki, sometimes also translated as Chronicle of Grand Pacification, is one of the most famous war tales, or gunki monogatari, of Japanese history that relate the often tragic fates of warriors and courtiers in times of perilous civil disturbances.
		The Taiheiki can be rather dull at times, especially when it recites with monotonous gusto the countless names of warriors, something that was doubtless fascinating to the Japanese listeners but that is excruciating to someone who wants to read the story.
		For the story is one of utter destruction, with story after story of betrayal --- when the cowardly abandon the family that had provided them with honors and privileges for years --- and death --- when the loyal commit suicide to expiate the favors bestowed on them by the sinking benefactors.

		According to the Taiheiki, emperor Godaigo was in dire straits when one night he dreamt of a seat facing south by a tree.
		From the descriptions in the Taiheiki it is possible that Kusunoki had an independent group of warriors under his command, and that his strategy and tactics where not common among the imperial generals.
		It is clear that he used deceit to achieve his goals, sometimes by employing warriors who were able to perform covert operations such as infiltrating a castle and opening its gates from the inside, for example.

		Taiheiki eiyū den series is an excellent example of its type and a work of art of high artistic merits.
		Here, however, the intention of the portrait is not to render the historical truth but rather to present a generalized image of a fair, strong, kind and father-like leader, simple in his greatness, all of these qualities being displayed in his good-looking appearance as well as in his attitude on the whole.
		The manner in which these three historic figures are characterized in the prints of the Taiheiki eiyū den series by Kuniyoshi allows us to suggest several general conclusions about the features of historical artworks of the Edo period and their role in the spiritual life of the society.

		More often than not, these sekai were not so much imaginary as they were historical in nature, removed in time far enough from the present so as bestow a kind of political neutrality, and vague, or archetypal, enough in content so as to allow the accurate depiction of another story.
		The Taiheiki goes into great detail about the beauty of Enya's wife and the lengths to which Moronao goes in order to seduce her.
		When his love is spurned, Moronao's jealousy drives him to smear his rival's name with political slander, a state of affairs that leads to Enya's immediate flight from the capital and, ultimately, to his tragic death.
