Eiga Monogatari (栄花物語, trans., Story of Splendor) is a Japanese monogatari that relates events in the life of the imperial courtier Fujiwara no Michinaga. It is believed to have been written by a number of authors between 1028 and 1107.[1] It is notable for giving considerable credit to the Fujiwara family, especially Michinaga. It was translated into English by William H. and Helen Craig McCullough in 1980 as A Tale of Flowering Fortunes.[2] It forms the basis for, and is frequently referenced. in Fumiko Enchi's retelling, A Tale of False Fortunes.
