Eight Bridges(PART 2)
【Himiko's Monologue】
I'm glad that Kato introduced "Yatsuhashi" to the world.
As you see, Yatsuhashi is the famous regional product of Kyoto---my hometown where I was born and brought up, and now teaching the tale of Genji (源氏物語) at Kyoto Women's College.

When you happen to visit Kyoto, please take a bite of Yatsuhashi---the taste of the ancient capital.
In any case, I hope Kato will write another interesting article soon.
So please come back to see me.
Have a nice day!

Hi, I'm June Adams.
Ise Monogatari (伊勢物語) is a Japanese collection of waka poems and associated narratives, dating from the Heian period.
The current version collects 125 sections, with each combining poems and prose, giving a total of 209 poems in most versions.
The exact date of composition and authorship can only be speculated; the identity of the nameless, idealised central character is likewise ambiguous, but suggested to be Ariwara no Narihira (在原 業平: 825-880).
Thirty of the poems from Ise Monogatari appear in the Kokin Wakashū (古今和歌集 edited in 905), with similar headnotes, all attributed to Narihira.
The combination of these poems, and the similarity of some events in the tales to Narihira's life, have led to the additional suggestion that Narihira actually composed the work; however, the inclusion of material and events dating after 880 suggests otherwise.
