Description: Eight Dogs, or "Hakkenden" by Kyokutei Bakin, Glynne Walley Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "A translation of the first fourteen chapters of the Japanese novel Nansåo Satomi Hakkenden (1814-1842) by Kyokutei Bakin (1767-1848)"-- Publisher Description Kyokutei Bakins Nanso Satomi hakkenden is one of the monuments of Japanese literature. This multigenerational samurai saga was one of the most popular and influential books of the nineteenth century and has been adapted many times into film, television, fiction, and comics. An Ill-Considered Jest, the first part of Hakkenden, tells the story of the Satomi clan patriarch Yoshizane and his daughter Princess Fuse. An ill-advised comment forces Yoshizane to betroth his daughter to the family dog, creating a supernatural union that ultimately produces the Eight Dog Warriors. Princess Fuses heroic and tragic sacrifice, and her strength, intelligence, and self-determination throughout, render her an immortal character within Japanese fiction.Eight Dogs is the culmination of centuries of premodern Japanese tale-telling, combining aspects of historical romance, fantasy, Tokugawa-era popular fiction, and Chinese vernacular stories. Glynne Walleys lively translation conveys the witty and colorful prose of the original, producing a faithful and entertaining edition of this important literary classic. Author Biography Glynne Walley is an Associate Professor of Japanese Literature at the University of Oregon and author of Good Dogs.
