About “Tosa nikki”

The Tosa Nikki is a poetic diary written anonymously by the tenth-century Japanese poet Ki no Tsurayuki. It documents a 55-day journey in 935 as he returned to Kyoto from Tosa province, where he had served as provincial governor. The text blends prose with Japanese poems, which are said to have been composed during the trip by the characters involved. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
