Contes d'Ise(Connaissance de l'Orient, format poche - japonaise)
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Aucune anthologie de la littérature japonaise ne peut négliger ce livre à la fois si primitif, si raffiné, si malaisé à classer selon notre notion de genre. Contes, si l'on veut, et c'est bien l'un des sens du mot japonais "monogatari" ("Ise monogatari") ; mais si brefs et si peu marqués d'intrigue que les poèmes (les tanka) qui les ornent en deviennent comme l'essence et l'essentiel. Impossible de comprendre la littérature japonaise, et la plus moderne (disons, celle des "short-short" japanglaisants), si l'on ne connaît pas ces contes poétiques d'auteur inconnu et qui datent du Xᵉ siècle. Peu nous importe que l'on attribue à Narihira une part de ces histoires. Ce qui nous importe en revanche, c'est la qualité d'une traduction due au général Renondeau, mais revue après la mort de celui-ci par M. Bernard Frank à qui nous devons, également admirables, les Chansons de Narayama et les Histoires qui sont maintenant du passé. Grâce à eux, vous goûterez une préciosité en effet à certains égards primitive, un sentiment de l'amour singulièrement libre et pudique.
