From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fujiwara no Nagayoshi (or Fujiwara no Nagatō) (藤原長能) (949?-?) was a Japanese poet and a court bureaucrat of the Heian period. He was the son of Fujiwara no Tomoyasu. His sister was the mother of Fujiwara no Michitsuna. She was a writer of the famous dialy, Kagerō Nikki (蜻蛉日記). His another sister was a mother of Daughter of Sugawara no Takasue (菅原孝標女), writer of the famous dialy, Sarashina Nikki (更級日記). He was one of "Thirty-Six Poetic Geniuses" or "Thirty-six Poetry Immortals" (Sanjūrokkasen). His pupil on Waka was priest Nōin (能因).
Reputedly, He died by worring about careless criticism of his poem from Fujiwara no Kintō, one of the most talented poets.
