Résumé
Once the exclusive domain of the aristocracy, classical Japanese poetry (waka) underwent a remarkable transformation in the medieval period, becoming a dynamic tool for cultural education embraced by warriors, monks, merchants, and commoners alike. Ariel Stilerman investigates this evolution in Court Poetry and the Culture of Learning in Japan by examining not only poetic treatises but also overlooked genres?encyclopedias, professional manuals, Buddhist essays, literary primers, didactic fiction, and popular tales.
As new audiences turned to waka and its playful counterpart, kyoka, in pursuit of salvation, career advancement, love, or adventure, poetry became a bridge between emerging social identities and the elite traditions of the aristocracy. Stilerman concludes that even as waka declined at the turn of the twentieth century, the tea ceremony rose to take its place?preserving and reinterpreting its role as the embodiment of Japanese tradition.
Offering a fresh and far-reaching perspective, this book illuminates poetry’s enduring influence?not just as an art form, but as a vital thread woven through the fabric of Japan’s cultural history.
