Document D: Kokin Wakashū Anthology
Background Information: “Tanka” or “Waka” is a type of Japanese poetry. It developed during the Middle Ages, the period 500–1500. The Kokin Wakashū is a collection of about 1,000 of these poems. Emperor Daigo, who reigned from 897–930 CE, ordered poets to compile the book. Therefore, it was an official collection. Inclusion in it was a great honor. The book included not only the poems but also information about the poets and their inspirations when available. The compilers divided the poems into sections by topic such as the seasons, traveling, and love.
