Sorensen illustrates how, on both the theoretical and the practical level, painted screens and other visual art objects helped define some of the essential characteristics of Japanese court poetry. In his examination of the important genre later termed screen poetry, Sorensen employs ekphrasis (the literary description of a visual art object) as a framework to analyze poems composed on or for painted screens. He provides close readings of poems and their social, political, and cultural contexts to argue the importance of the visual arts in the formation of Japanese poetics and poetic conventions. 410 0$aBrill's Japanese studies library ;$vv. 40. 606 $aJapanese poetry$yHeian period, 794-1185$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLiterature in art 606 $aScreen painting, Japanese$xHistory 615 0$aJapanese poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aLiterature in art. 615 0$aScreen painting, Japanese$xHistory. 676 $a895.6/1009 700 $aSorensen$b Joseph T$01680430 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807908603321 996 $aOptical allusions$94049125 997 $aUNINA
