À propos de ce contenu audio

Murasaki Shikibu, born into the middle ranks of the aristocracy during the Heian period (794-1185 CE), wrote The Tale of Genji, widely considered the world's first novel, during the early years of the 11th century. Expansive, compelling, and sophisticated in its representation of ethical concerns and aesthetic ideals, Murasaki's tale came to occupy a central place in Japan's remarkable history of artistic achievement and is now recognized as a masterpiece of world literature.

The Tale of Genji is presented here in a flowing new translation for contemporary listeners, who will discover in its depiction of the culture of the imperial court the rich complexity of human experience that simultaneously resonates with and challenges their own. Washburn embeds annotations for accessibility and clarity and renders the poetry into triplets to create prosodic analogues of the original.

    This is a very old tale, but the translation by Dennis Washburn helps a lot to understand the context. I recommend to check the printed version because it has a lot of footnotes explaining the references to poems and rites.

    The reader is very good. He uses several voice tones to distinguish the characters. Furthermore, his pronunciation of the japanese (terms and names) is excellent.

    Good translation and reading.
