Abstract
Abstract:This article examines the connections between author, oeuvre, and institutions as reflected in the discourse of intellectual ownership from the late twelfth to the early sixteenth century. I address the issue by reconstructing the genealogies of authorship and "copyright" in literary treatises and by investigating a controversial poem in Ungyoku waka shō, a hitherto overlooked poetry collection dating from 1514. By unveiling how premodern authors represented themselves and their peers by means of literary reappropriation, I illustrate the intertextual and intersubjective trajectories that embodied these politics of authorship.
摘要:本文考察了作者、作品和制度之间的联系,这些联系反映在12世纪末至16世纪初的知识产权话语中。我通过重建文学论文中的作者和“版权”谱系,并调查《Ungyoku waka shō》中一首有争议的诗来解决这个问题,这是一本迄今为止被忽视的1514年诗集。通过揭示前现代作家如何通过文学重新挪用来表现自己和同龄人,我展示了体现这些作者政治的互文性和主体间轨迹。
期刊介绍:
Monumenta Nipponica was founded in 1938 by Sophia University, Tokyo, to provide a common platform for scholars throughout the world to present their research on Japanese culture, history, literature, and society. One of the oldest and most highly regarded English-language journals in the Asian studies field, it is known not only for articles of original scholarship and timely book reviews, but also for authoritative translations of a wide range of Japanese historical and literary sources. Previously published four times a year, since 2008 the journal has appeared semiannually, in May and November.
