Goshūi Wakashū
The Goshūi Wakashū, sometimes abbreviated as Goshūishū, is an imperial anthology of Japanese waka compiled in 1086 at the behest of Emperor Shirakawa. It was compiled by the conservative Fujiwara no Michitoshi, who wrote its preface. It consists of twenty volumes containing 1,220 poems. It is noted for a comparatively large contingent of poems written by women.
Its name "Later Collection" comes from the fact that it succeeds the Shūi Wakashū.
