The Floating World in Japanese Fiction
Hibbett, Howard New York, New York Oxford University Press 1959 First Edition Hard Cover Very Good Very Good
; 232 pages with index; First Edition/First Printing; Black & white illustrations; Textblock is clean, bright & tight; Grey cloth-covered boards with illustration of a woman on the front board; Title in orange to spine; Unfaded pictorial dust-jacket with modest shelf & edge wear including feint rubbing; We have placed the dust-jacket in a protective, removable clear mylar cover; . (Professor Hibbett's skillful translations from the works of Kiseki and Saikaku capture the sense of style and wit, which make the fiction of the floating world among the most entertaining in Japanese literature. The sharp satire, wit and sophistication of the ukiyo-zoshi, or 'tales of the floating world' reflect the manners, morals, arts and affectations of the Genroku era (c. 1680-1740), but also provide an appreciation and better understanding of the familiar ukiyo-e woodcuts, from which this book is illustrated.)
