Description:
Stanford: Stanford University Press, 1997. Study of this medieval Japanese classic of brief 'essays' on various subjects; the author argues that Kenko's text is not an early example of 'zuihitsu' or informal essay, but rather "a deliberate, controlled effort by Kenko to force the reader to confront the impermanent and contingent nature of existence through experiencing the text." Hardcover in jacket, as pictured; first edition (first printing). Light wear to book; hint of fading to jacket spine; near fine, unmarked. Text clean; xxii, [2], 343 pages + 'colophon'; index, character list, lengthy bibliography, notes. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Octavo.
