Download or read book The Road to Komatsubara written by Steven D. Carter and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-05-11 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carter attempts to reconstruct the "classical" reading of renga (linked verse) using extant rulebooks from the time, approximating in every way possible the manner in which it was read in its own time and place. The result is a rare glimpse into the literary conssciousness of the medieval Japanese that seems paradoxically modern in its insistence on the final indeterminancy of poetic meaning.Includes a full translation of the 1501 rulebook along with an annotated translation of a solo renga sequence composed in 1492 by Shōhaku's teacher and mentor, Sōgi.
