About This Book

"Song in an Age of Discord is a companion volume to the author's translation of The Journal of Socho, the travel diary and poetic memoir of Saiokuken Socho (1448-1532), the preeminent linked-verse (renga) poet of his generation.

The Journal - which records several journeys that Socho made between Kyoto and Suruga Province during the tumultous Age of the Country at War - is unparalleled in the literature of the period for its range of commentary and freshness of detail, and for its impressive array of literary genres, including more than 600 poems."--BOOK JACKET.
