Drawing on both contemporaneous historical sources and modern literary criticism, Navigating Narratives offers unique insights into Heian Japan through one of its most enigmatic and consequential texts, Tosa nikki (The Tosa Diary)—the world’s first short novelistic work of fiction, which purports to record the voyage of an anonymous woman.
