520 3  Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) has long been recognized as one 
       of the most important literary figures of prewar Japan. 
       Her renown derives principally from the passion of her 
       early poetry and from her contributions to 20th-century 
       debates about women. This emphasis obscures a major part 
       of her career, which was devoted to work on the Japanese 
       classics and, in particular, the great Heian period text 
       The Tale of Genji. Akiko herself felt that Genji was the 
       bedrock upon which her entire literary career was built, 
       and her bibliography shows a steadily increasing amount of
       time devoted to projects related to the tale. This study 
       traces for the first time the full range of Akiko's 
       involvement with The Tale of Genji. The Tale of Genji 
       provided Akiko with her conception of herself as a writer 
       and inspired many of her most significant literary 
       projects. She, in turn, refurbished the tale as a modern 
       novel, pioneered some of the most promising avenues of 
       modern academic research on Genji, and, to a great extent,
       gave the text the prominence it now enjoys as a translated
       classic. Through Akiko's work Genji became, in fact as 
       well as in name, an exemplum of that most modern of 
       literary genres, the novel. In delineating this important 
       aspect of Akiko's life and her bibliography, this study 
       aims to show that facile descriptions of Akiko as a 
       "poetess of passion" or "new woman" will no longer 
       suffice.
