Synopsis:
A beautiful boxed set of 20 illustrated greeting cards with four poems, originally composed by the Japanese Buddhist monk Jien (1155-1225), from the Ashmolean's Tale of Genji album.
The four brief poems presented here on four different illustrated greeting cards with envelopes are: Jin (Benevolence), Gi (Righteousness), Rei (Politeness), and Chi (Wisdom). The Tale of Genji is a classic novel by Murasaki Shikibu (ca.978-1026), which explores the complexities of elite society in eleventh century Japan through the life of Prince Genji, a member of the imperial court. |
