Nise Monogatari (仁勢物語, occasionally 似勢物語) is a Japanese kana-zōshi written in the early Edo period by an unknown author.
Authorship and date
The author of Nise Monogatari is unknown.[1] The late-Edo period author Ryūtei Tanehiko speculated that it was the early Edo waka poet and Noh playwright Karasumaru Mitsuhiro ,[1] but modern scholars reject this theory.[1]
It was written around 1639 (Kan'ei 16),[1] and first printed around the end of the Kan'ei era in 1644.[1] The illustrations included in the first printed edition are based on the Kan'ei 6 (1629) edition of the Ise Monogatari.[1]
