Traces of Genji monogatari in Shinkokinshū

Abstract

In this paper, after mainly dealing with the poetics of Fujiwara no Shunzei and of his son Teika, above all in relation to Genji monogatari, I analyse some poems from Shinkokinshū that evoke, through the so-called allusive variation, the world of the Shining Prince, and I wish to point out the peculiarities of the shinkokin-period poets’ composition techniques.
