Krátky popis
Lady Nijo’s A Tale Unasked (Towazugatari) is the last, and arguably
the finest, among classical Japanese literature's famous ‘women's
diaries’. Thought to have been completed around 1307, when the
author was in her late forties, the first two thirds of this
autobiographical work document in rich and compelling detail the
experiences of an imperial concubine whose time at court was ruled
and finally ruined by her passionate and complicated love life. The
final third of the work equally memorably describes her peripatetic
life after the emperor expelled her from the court in her
mid-twenties and she became a nun, wandering the roads of Japan as
a form of Buddhist austerity.Meredith McKinney's superb translation
breathes new life into Lady Nijo's fascinating diaries, which
survived her era in a single copy and were only rediscovered in the
1940s.
