Abstract

<p>Most ancient literary works are handed down to us through the processes of transcription and annotation which had continued from ancient to early modern times. Therefore one may not only read the text per se but also find another sort of “text” in its annotation. In this sense the episode of Genshi-Joou is not so much a mere annotation attached to the Gakushuin-bon edition of Eiga-monogatari as an independent story inscribed on the text proper. Metaphorically speaking, it is a “foreign language” into which the original text is both translated and transformed.</p>
