Return to he index of "Other Women's Voices." Updated 11-03-10 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 Heian 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.

24. Murasaki - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia As a result, the real name of the author is lost, and she was called Murasaki Shikibu Murasaki after the heroine she invented; Shikibu after her father's official rank. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murasaki

Murasaki From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search This article is about a character from The Tale of Genji . For other uses, see Murasaki (disambiguation) Murasaki Shikibu Murasaki refers to both the heroine of the Genji Monogatari The Tale of Genji ), and the book's author, Murasaki Shikibu . Curiously, in both cases the name is a pseudonym , and the real names are unknown. In the court manners of the time (the Heian Period ), it was considered unacceptably familiar and vulgar, to freely address people by their personal name, or even by their clan's name. As a result, the real name of the author is lost, and she was called Murasaki Shikibu: Murasaki after the heroine she invented; Shikibu after her father's official rank. The author Murasaki was an aristocrat, the daughter of a provincial governor who probably belonged to a minor branch of the mighty Fujiwara clan . She served as a lady in waiting to the Empress Shoshi (a daughter of the powerful Fujiwara Michinaga ), and was a literary contemporary and rival of Sei Shōnagon When Murasaki Shikibu wrote The Tale of Genji , she followed the customs of her class and time, so that most of the characters in the novel are never identified by name, but rather by either their rank and title (in the case of male persons), rank and title of their male relatives (in the case of female persons), or after the name of their habitation (in the case of the great court ladies). Thus in the case of Murasaki, the lady in the novel, the author often calls her "The Lady of the West Wing". This "Lady of the West Wing" is commonly named Murasaki in commentaries and translations. Today, this serves to make the novel more easily comprehensible to those unfamiliar with Heian era court manners and titles, but we know that the author's contemporaries already referred to this character by this name - and nicknamed the author after her.
