| Opplysninger | Introduction -- Yamato monogatari : movement, gender, and nation -- Sanekata : poetry, territory, and the exilic -- Shigehira : genres and politics in Heike monogatari -- Suwa : multiplicity, ubiquity, and "elsewhere" in shrine origin narratives -- Epilogue.. - "Examines a selection of prose narratives and poetry of the mid-Heian to medieval eras (900-1400) which conspicuously features tropes of movement. Argues that the concurrent appearance in a story of a character's physical motion and the techniques identified with literary strategies of motion is a textual signpost urging readers to focus on how the work conceptualizes relations of power and claims to authority"
