The genre represents the transition between the purely lyrical tradition of the imperial waka anthologies and the extended prose fiction of the Genji Monogatari tradition. The present volume is the first complete translation of the Yamato Monogatari into Russian, made by Lyudmila Mikhailovna Ermakova, one of the leading Soviet and post-Soviet specialists in Japanese classical literature and the mythology and ritual poetry of early Japan, author of foundational works on Man'yoshu poetics and archaic Japanese literature. The volume is preceded by an extended scholarly introduction examining the dating of the text, its textual tradition, and the structural relationship between verse and prose in this genre, and is supplemented by commentaries. The volume appears as number LXX in the prestigious series \"Written Monuments of the Orient\" (Pamyatniki pis'mennosti Vostoka), the principal Soviet and Russian critical-edition series for primary sources in oriental literatures. The series is considered one of the most authoritative source publication ventures in world orientalist scholarship. Of interest to collectors of Japanese studies, East Asian literature, Soviet orientalism, and the ППВ series.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343582490666,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_3382.jpg?v=1778338619","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/yamato-monogatari-%e5%a4%a7%e5%92%8c%e7%89%a9%e8%aa%9e-series-written-monuments-of-the-orient-pamyatniki-pismennosti-vostoka-vol-lxx-1982-in-russian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
