Description
The poems are representative of a large range of classical, medieval, and modern poetry, but the emphasis is on folk songs and love lyrics. Because women have had such an outtanding role in Japanese literature, included here are selections from the work, among others, of the remarkable early twentieth-century poet Yosano Akiko and more contemporary, deeply sensuous Marichiko.
