Murasaki Shikibu depicts the richness and variety of Japan's four seasons by having her tell the story from the perspectives of various characters.The late dyer Yukio Yoshioka carefully deciphered the 54 chapters of ``The Tale of Genji'' in ``The Color Dictionary of ``The Tale of Genji'' (published in 2008), focusing on the colors and costumes that are told in the story. At the same time, we deciphered the descriptions of dyeing and weaving and vegetable dyeing written in the Engishiki, a collection of laws and regulations that compiled religious proposals and administrative regulations for imperial courts, temples, and shrines during the Heian period. The dyeing method used in the past was reproduced as is.This newly re-edited edition features all of Yukio Yoshioka's carefully selected color illustrations of the fifty-four chapters. The text has been excerpted, focusing on explanations of dyeing and coloring materials, and has been re-edited into a beautiful, compact size with English text added to the entire text. Quotations from ``The Tale of Genji'' are included in the famous translation ``The Tale of Genji'' (English version of The Tale of Genji, translated by Edward Seidensticker).What kind of costumes did the various characters in The Tale of Genji wear, and what kind of emotional changes were conveyed in the overlapping colors?
