   Textual Transmission
   The novel survives through numerous manuscript copies, none of which are definitively autograph. The variations between manuscripts—especially regarding the specific shade of green used for chapter headings—are a subject of intense philological study. The surviving text corpus is estimated to contain approximately 800 poems embedded within the prose, reflecting the prevailing poetic conventions seen earlier in the Kokin Wakashū \[2\].
