From the Bamboo-View Pavilion: Takemuki-ga-ki
ISBN: 9780994571502 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Hino Nako (1310-1358) experienced the turmoil of the Japanese mid-14th century. In this moving memoir she sums up her life: her early years of court service, her cruelly brief marriage to Saionji Kinmune, her devotion to her son, the pilgrimages and Zen practice of her later years, and her sense of having done all she could amid chaos and loss to uphold the honor of her house. She omits the death of Kinmune, killed before her eyes in 1335, but the translation includes the Taiheiki account of it. Nako's confession of religious faith and her praise of the beauty of Kitayama, the Saionji estate,...

The Algerine Captive
ISBN: 9781429015011 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. After the Revolutionary War, American sailors lost the protection of Britain's Royal Navy and were easy prey for the pirates of the North African coast, who captured ships and cargo, enslaved crew, and demanded ransom from the U.S. Motivated by these events, Royall Tyler, the first American-born playwright, poet, and novelist, wrote "The Algerine Captive." Originally published anonymously in 1797, it tells the tale of fictitious Boston native Dr. Updike Underhill, his capture by Barbary pirates, and their efforts to convert him to their Muslim faith. Written in an entertaining and satiric...

The Tale of the Heike
ISBN: 9780143107262 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 784 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From the acclaimed translator of The Tale of Genji, a groundbreaking rendering of Japan's great martial epic
The fourteenth-century Tale of the Heike is Japan's Iliad--a moving depiction of the late twelfth-century wars between the Heike and Genji clans. No work has had a greater impact on later Japanese literature, theater, music, film, and manga--indeed on the Japanese people's sense of their own past. It has also been a major source for medieval-Japan-based fantasy in English. With woodcuts by nineteenth-century artist Teisai Hokuba, a major student of the...

Miracles of the Kasuga Deity
ISBN: 9780231069595 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In this annotated translation and study of an early fourteenth-century Japanese devotional picture scroll set, Royall Tyler illuminates the complex relationships between medieval Japanese religion and politics, text, and art. The Kasuga Gongen genki ("The Miracles of the Kasuga Deity") mingles text and painting on silk to tell the tale of miraculous events at the Kasuga shrine in Nara, a site favored by the dominant Fujiwara clan for centuries. The work's values are aristocratic, but the text sheds light on the syncretic nature of the era's religious practices, allowing Tyler to...
