The Emperor Horikawa Diary
In Japan the Heian period
(

794 to 1185)
was characterised by a great volume of published
works of literature written by women—an
event brought about by the coincidence of the
development of a Japanese script at a time
when women were enjoying a freedom
unparalleled till the present and when the
country was at peace. One of the most popular
forms adopted was the
nikki,
a diary form
which women turned into a masterful
combination of poetry and prose.
Sanuki no Suke Nikki
tells of the life of the
court attendant Lady Sanuki during the reign
of the young Emperor Horikawa, who died
at the early age of 29, and subsequently of her
life for a brief period serving his son, who
became Emperor at the age of four.
It is a moving story of Lady Sanuki’s
devotion to the Emperor, her faithful attendance
him during his last illness and the grief of the
whole court after his death. It tells in
retrospect of Lady Sanuki’s many happy hours
at court with Emperor Horikawa and of court
ceremonies and festivals.
This is the first English translation of an
important work which provides insight into
the court life of the period.
Jennifer Brewster is a graduate o f the Australian
National University and continued her interest
in classical Japanese as a postgraduate.
Sanuki no Suke Nikki
is the outcome o f research
she undertook for her Ph.D. thesis.
