Seated statue of Dainichi Nyorai, Renko-in, Mie, #Japan, #Heian period. Made of a single piece of cypress. The area from the elbows to the front of the knees belongs to later generations. Both hands are tied in a sign of wisdom. Sitting in a prone position. It looks like it was originally painted, but most of it has peeled off. #BuddhistArt #Buddhism

#ScribesAndMakers If your creative work could speak, what would it say about you?

And what's this with the poetry in your stories? It started as quoted song lyrics, and now there are whole chapters where characters exchange renga and kkatauta. Yes, I know the #Heian and #Edo periods, and the […]

Another chapter down. One more chapter (I hope) and an epilogue to soften the rather violent ending of this series. #AmWriting

Then I need to reread "The Tale of Genji" and read "Gossamer Years" for the first time to start getting a handle on home life for a rural Heian noblewoman.

Tales of Times Now Past: Sixty-Two Stories from a Medieval Japanese Collection > The *Konjaku monogatari shu* (今昔物語集) is a Japanese anthology dating from the early twelfth century. The original work contains more than one thousand systematically arranged tales from India, China, and Japan. It is the most important example of a genre of collections of brief tales which, because of their informality and unpretentious style, were neglected by Japanese critics until recent years but which are now acknowledged to be among the most significant prose literature of premodern Japan.
