Heian era women of letters, Sei Shonagon and Murasaki Shikibu, were slated for Valentine's Day, and a multilingual Santa Claus who sounds a bit like Darth Vader came out at Christmas. Almost all the Murasaki waka (short verse) and a large part of the ancient diary are arranged expertly according to the many and specific seasonals of the Chinese calendar. This book is an absorbing, highly readable discussion of the phenomena of mono no ke, spirit possession, as it appears in Murasaki Shikibu's classic monogatari. |
