概要 | Long before his exile to Dazaifu, Heian scholar, poet, and statesman Sugawara no Michizane (845–903) spent a four-year sojourn as a provincial governor in Sanuki. Although scholars and biographers hav...e long debated the significance of this period in Michizane’s life, virtually all narratives of his governorship share the assumption that for Michizane himself it was a great personal setback. The article argues that this assumption relies on a skewed reading of the poetry Michizane wrote during this period, in which seemingly autobiographical outbursts are culled from his oeuvre to construct the poet’s supposed authentic voice. Relying on recent scholarship on the rhetoric and social praxis of Sinitic poetry at the Heian court and applying these insights to a close reading of five poems Michizane wrote just before his departure, I show that their apparently deeply personal language is clearly motivated by poetics, genre expectations, and compositional setting. Rather than pressing the poems into service to reconstruct a poet’s inner world, therefore, a proposition is made to instead approach occasional Sinitic verse in the role it played in the negotiation of social ties, and to examine its use of emotionally charged language not as the representation of an abstract inner self, but as a poetic means to very concrete ends.続きを見る |
