HIBBETT, HOWARD. The Floating World In Japanese Fiction.
Charles E. Tuttle Company, Rutland: 1980. 0804811547 / 9780804811545 Third Printing. s Softcover. Very good condition.
Among the most delightful genres of Japanese literature is that of the ukiyo-zoshi, or 'tales of the floating world.' These gay stories and novels reflect the milieu of the familiar ukiyo-e prints, to which they offer the best possible introduction. In them we find an unsurpassed view of the manners and customs, arts and affectations of the multifarious city life of Tokugawa Japan. The author, a member of the Department of Far Eastern Languages at Harvard University, has divided his book into three parts. The first gives an account of the social background; the second is devoted to translations of tales by Kiseki; and the third is a translation of approximately half of Saikaku's The Woman Who Spent Her Life In Love, an early picaresque novel set in an environment of merchants. Includes an Index.
