This video provides a short overview of the role women played in the development of the #Japanese language during the #Heian Period, taking the court diaries written in #hiragana or "#onnade" as its main historical approach.
This is quite different from the videos I've made till now. But I hope you'll find it interesting!
All original drawings by me.
Photos taken from illustrations fallen into the public domain.
The Nikki and Monogatari presented in the video:
The Tosa Diary - #土佐日記
The Pillow Book - #枕草子
The Tale of Genji - 源氏物語
