Kokin-wakashu
Kokin(waka)sh? (Japanese: ??(??)?, Kokin(waka)shū, "collection of ancient and modern poems") is an early Heian waka anthology, conceived by Emperor Uda (r. 887?897) and ordered by his son Emperor Daigo (r. 897?930) in 905. Its finished form dates to c. 920, though according to several historical accounts the last poem was added to the collection in 914. The compilers of the anthology were four court poets, led by Ki no Tsurayuki and including Ki no Tomonori (who died before its completion), ?shik?chi Mitsune, and Mibu no Tadamine.
