Murasaki Shikibu (973/8-aft.1014)
"WHO WILL READ IT? WHO WILL LIVE FOREVER IN THIS WORLD?"
The woman we call Murasaki Shikibu ("Murasaki" probably from the name of her heroine; "Shikibu" from a post once held by her father) came from a lesser branch of the powerful Fujiwara clan of Japan. Her father was for short periods a provincial governor, a position that could be sometimes lucrative but was always far away from the center of power in the Heien capital, Kyoto. The first we know of Murasaki Shikibu is that she was with her father in the provinces in 996. In 998 she came back to the capital to marry Fujiwara Nobutaka; her husband was almost as old as her father and already had other wives. Murasaki had a daughter in 999; she was widowed in 1001. Until she entered court in 1005/6, she was at home, perhaps beginning Genji monogatari. At court, she was an attendant to Empress Shoshi /Akiko (988-1074), who was at least ten years younger than Murasaki. Since she has no "court name," Murasaki seems not to have held an official court post, but rather was employed by Fujiwara Michinaga, the most powerful man in the country, to serve his empress daughter. Part of Murasaki Shikibu nikki covers the period 1008-1010.

Murasaki Shikibu
c. 976-c. 1031
Japanese author Murasaki Shikibu was a Japanese writer of the late Heian period. Her book, The Tale of Genji, is the world's first psychological novel and one of the longest and most distinguished masterpieces of Japanese literature. The exact dates of the life of Lady Murasaki are not known, nor is her name. Shikibu, a title, may refer to her father, who served in the Ministry of Ceremonial, or of Rites (Shikibu Sh). The name Murasaki, literally "Violet," could refer to one of the heroines of The Tale of Genji or to the first element of her maiden name, Fujiwara, one of the greatest names in Japanese history. Murasaki was born into a lesser but distinguished and cultured branch of the Fujiwara family in the last quarter of the 10th century. Her father, Fujiwara Tamatoki, an official and poet, was at one time a provincial governor; his grandfather was a poet. Murasaki records in her diary her lessons in Chinese with her brother. She was so quick to learn that her father regretted that she was not a boy. Presumably Murasaki was educated in the usual Chinese and Buddhist classics as well as in Japanese literature, though this kind of learning was not stressed for young women in those days. Murasaki was married at about the age of 20, but her husband died soon after, in 1001, leaving her with a daughter. After her husband's death, Murasaki lived in retirement for some years.

TRANSLATORS' NOTE
THE poems in the text, slight and occasional as they are, depending often for their charm on plays upon words of two meanings, or on the suggestions conveyed to the Japanese mind by a single word, have presented problems of great difficulty to the translators, not perfectly overcome. Of the "Sarashina Diary" there exist a few manuscript copies, and three or four publications of the text. Some of them are confused and unreadably incoherent. The present translation was done by comparing all the texts accessible, and is especially founded on the connected text by Mr. Sakine, professor of the Girls' Higher Normal School, Tokio, published by Meiji Shoin, Itchome Nishiki-cho, Kanda-ku, Tokio. As far as possible the exact meaning has been adhered to, and the words chosen to express it have been kept absolutely simple, without complexity of thought, for such is the vocabulary in [Page v] which it was written. Sometimes the diarist uses the present tense, sometimes the tense seems reminiscent. The words in square brackets have been inserted by the translators to complete the sense in English of sentences which literally rendered do not carry with them the suggestion of the Japanese text.

54. Tale Of Murasaki - Izumi Shikibu
Izumi shikibu. Izumi shikibu was a renowned poet contemporary of murasaki shikibu. They were not related. The shikibu in their names
http://www.taleofmurasaki.com/izumipage.htm
Izumi Shikibu Izumi Shikibu was a renowned poet contemporary of Murasaki Shikibu . They were not related. The Shikibu in their names comes from the fact that their fathers at one time held posts in the Bureau of Ceremonial ( shikibu-shô ). Both women were members of the lower echelons of the nobility. There is no record of the two Shikibus having met, even though Izumi was invited to join Empress Shôshi 's salon in 1009, three years after Murasaki. In that small world it is hard to imagine they would not have run across one another frequently. Murasaki's rather stinging opinions of Izumi come directly from her Diary, in a letter fragment containing unsweetened characterizations of various ladies of her acquaintance. In order to account for Murasaki's disdain, I built in a scene depicting Izumi as slow to pick up a poetic reference. This is entirely made up and I have been quite unfair to Izumi Shikibu in this one-sided portrayal. There is no record of what she thought about Murasaki.
I continued to build on this nugget of ill will in the fictional scene where Murasaki feels betrayed when her friend Sanenari (real person, fictional relationship to Murasaki) ignores her and begins to court Izumi Shikibu in her stead. When Murasaki was younger I proposed that her feelings about Izumi were more sanguine. I have Murasaki admiring Izumi's most famous poem "Out of darkness" which was in fact included in the

Murasaki Shikibu (c. 978-c. 1026)
Details about Murasaki Shikibu and her life are not really known. She lived in a time in Japan when the woman held a low position in society. Because of this, the exact date that she was born is not known. It is thought that she was born around 973 AD and that she died around 1025 AD. Her real name is not known either. During this time period only the emperor's wife's real name and birthdate were known. The Shikibu name comes from her father's position at court.
She was like the women in her book, a woman of the Heian period. The Tale of Genji is the first novel not only of Japanese literature, but of literature in general. It is considered to be one of the greatest and earliest novels in the world. It is known that Murasaki is the daughter of a governer of a province in the Fujiwara family. Her father was also a well known scholar. Her father allowed her to study with her brother and even let her learn Chinese characters, which was improper for girls at that time. She was married in her life for a short time and had one daughter. Both the death of her husband and her great talent brought her to court. It was at this time that she kept a diary which described court life. During these times she is thought to have written The Tale of Genji . It is not known exactly what she did after her time at court, though her novel lives on.
