Nijōin No Sanuki Shū
The ''Nijōin no Sanuki Shū'' (二条院讃岐集), also known as the ''Sanuki-shū'' (讃岐集) is a Japanese anthology of ''waka'' poetry. It is the personal anthology ('' kashū'') of Nijōin no Sanuki. The text dates to before 1187, probably 1182, and probably originally consisted of 100 poems, but the manuscript tradition is incomplete and the most that have been recovered is 98. The surviving manuscripts all come from the same textual line, but are divided by critical scholars into two groups based on orthographic differences. Compiler and date The ''Nijōin no Sanuki Shū'' was probably completed before the ''Senzai Wakashū'' was first presented to the emperor in 1187. Sanuki probably compiled the anthology herself in 1182, when she was in her early forties, in response to Kamo no Shigeyasu's solicitation of private collections of 100 poems by contemporary poets of the Juei era, the ''Juei Hyakushu Kashū'' (寿永百首家集).

However, by the time of the '' Kokinshūs compilation at the beginning of the tenth century, all of these forms except for the ''tanka'' and ''chōka'' had effectively gone extinct, and ''chōka'' had significantly diminished in prominence. As a result, the word ''waka'' became effectively synonymous with ''tanka'', and t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
