Ki no Tomonori

Japanese author, poet and courtier

850 CE to 904 CE

Ki no Tomonori (c. 850 – c. 904) is an early Heian waka poet of the court, a member of the sanjūrokkasen or Thirty-six Poetry Immortals.

He is a compiler of the Kokin Wakashū, though he certainly does not see it to completion as the anthology includes a eulogy to him composed by Ki no Tsurayuki, his colleague in the compilation effort.

Ki no Tomonori is the author of several poems in the Kokin Wakashū, and a few of his poems appear in later official collections.

A collection of his poems from various sources appears as the tomonori shū.
