In spite of the ease&nbsp;of maintaining virtual connectedness in today\u2019s world,&nbsp;this question once again seems worth asking. This talk&nbsp;examines some examples of cultural omnivorousness&nbsp;across East Asia as manifested in the genre of bamboo&nbsp;branch lyrics (<em>chikushiji\/zhuzhici\/jukjisa<\/em>&nbsp;\u7af9\u679d\u8a5e), with a&nbsp;focus on&nbsp;<em>\u014ct\u014d<\/em><em>&nbsp;shiji zasshi<\/em>&nbsp;\u9d28\u6771\u56db\u6642\u96d1\u8a5e&nbsp;(Miscellaneous&nbsp;Poems of the Four Seasons East of the Kamogawa,&nbsp;1826), a sequence of 120 heptasyllabic quatrains set&nbsp;in Kyoto\u2019s Gion District. Its author, Nakajima S\u014din&nbsp;\u4e2d\u5cf6\u68d5\u96a0&nbsp;(1779-1855), drew extensively from the West Lake&nbsp;<em>zhuzhici<\/em>&nbsp;tradition\u2014the lodestar of such poetry in&nbsp;China\u2014in limning the customs and habits of its&nbsp;<em>geiko<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>maiko<\/em>&nbsp;as well as multiple other cultural and physical&nbsp;charms of the district. Examining Nakajima\u2019s sequence in light of the genre\u2019s full geographical and&nbsp;historical expanse (from Katori to Kashgar, from&nbsp;Saigon to Svobodny, and from Bai Juyi to the Meiji era),&nbsp;the talk assesses how it situates Gion as a node within&nbsp;the cultural cosmopolis of late-pre-modern East Asia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stephen Roddy&nbsp;<\/strong>is a professor of East Asian literatures and&nbsp;languages at the University of San Francisco.
