(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
In the early eleventh century Murasaki Shikibu, a lady in the Heian court of Japan, wrote what many consider to be the world’s first novel, more than three centuries before Chaucer. The Heian era (794—1185) is recognized as one of the very greatest periods in Japanese literature, and The Tale of Genji is not only the unquestioned prose masterpiece of that period but also the most lively and absorbing account we have of the intricate, exquisite, highly ordered court culture that made such a masterpiece possible.
Genji is the favorite son of the emperor but also a man of dangerously passionate impulses. In his highly refined world, where every dalliance is an act of political consequence, his shifting alliances and secret love affairs create great turmoil and very nearly destroy him.
Edward Seidensticker’s translation of Lady Murasaki’s splendid romance has been honored throughout the English-speaking world for its fluency, scholarly depth, and deep literary tact and sensitivity.

本人讀書嚮來興緻所至,當年就為瞭一睹源氏之風華,買瞭套豐子愷譯本的《源氏物語》。 還算認真的讀瞭一下,感覺結構鬆散,翻譯除瞭詩句之外,也很是單薄無味,甚是失望。昨天偶爾在豆瓣上看到一篇文章《怎樣閱讀源氏物語》,細細一看,發現《源氏物語》被稱為奇書是名至...
評分文字曆來有兩種動人之處:一曰思想,一曰情緻。年少的時候,憑空有許多閑情,都要裝飾以最優美的文字錶述齣來,宛如在最雅緻的信紙上寫齣最無聊的感情;長大以後,看齣其間的庸俗與可笑,不願為賦新詞強說愁,也不願委麯求全,似乎長瞭學問,精進瞭思想,卻是江郎纔盡,語不成...
評分趁1000年周年的東風,國內也跟著狠齣瞭幾套各種各樣的源氏物語。我覺得非常遺憾,這又是一本不推薦大傢買的書。上一本是http://www.douban.com/review/1563234/(不過這本是田邊聖子女士的改寫,其實不可通比,在此道歉) 可喜可賀的是這次作者終於是紫式...
評分五一閑翻書的時候,看到一篇舊文:大野晉的《如何閱讀《源氏物語》——對未經論證的“武田說”的再評價》。雖然是舊文,但因為之前沒有看過這類文章,所以覺得其中的觀點頗新奇,於是按照文中的方法又重新翻閱瞭一下《源氏物語》和《紫式部日記》,更是有趣。這幾年,國內重版...
