An index post to drafts of my translations of classical Japanese poetry. (Chinese is over here.) Due to system constraints, larger books were split into two posts labeled a and b. Note that these are drafts, many of them since revised.
From the Kokinshu anthology, by book:
Book Ia: Spring 1 (1-48)
Book Ib: Spring 1 (49-68)
Book IIa: Spring 2 (69-100)
Book IIb: Spring 2 (101-134)
Book III: Summer (135-168)
Book IVa: Autumn 1 (169-200)
Book IVb: Autumn 1 (201-248)
Book Va: Autumn 2 (249-280)
Book Vb: Autumn 2 (281-313)
Book VI: Winter (313-342)
Book VII: Congratulations (343-364)
Book VIII: Partings (365-405)
Book IX: Travel (406-421)
Book X: Names of Things (422-468)
Book XI: Love 1 (469-480) [incomplete]
The latest revisions of the first six books were published as Ice Melts in the Wind.
Other:
Parts one and two of early drafts of Hyakunin Isshu, later published as One Hundred People, One Poem Each.
Ono no Komachi's complete poetry in the Kokinshu and Gosenshu, later published as These Things Called Dreams
Some random poems by Ki no Tsurayuki
An arc of Tanabata poems extracted from Kokinshu book IVa
A baker's dozen from the Shinkokinshu
A series of posts discussing three translations in detail
