Review: "No serious study of traditional Japan - its literature, history, religion, and culture - is possible without solid knowledge of Classical Japanese. This work is the first complete description of the language of the golden Heian period (794-1185) to be published in English. It presents an innovative morphological analysis arranged so as to facilitate reference usage and at long last provides a comprehensive reference work for learners and advanced students of classical Japanese."--BOOK JACKET.
