Short poems in romances were regulated by the style of narration and had their own meanings. It would not be effective to understand them totally as "Poetic Stories", and they were not merely means of communication in Heian Era. Mental status of characters in some chapters of The Tale of Genji and The Tale of Ise were described only by short poems. They looked like primitive emotional songs in ancient folklore, compared with modern "Poetic Stories" which had a function of communication. Unexpectedly the relation between poems and narration in Genji and Ise was not modern but ancient.

The process of formation from diaries to literary diaries was studied here. Literary diaries did not meand irectly Chinese diaries in Kana letters. A narrator was required like a third person as in the beginning of The Diary of Tosa. In other words, the author told objectively as "a man" or "a woman". We could find that the method of third personification as "a man" or "a woman" was used in Tsurayuki's "Poems on the Screen". That was the origin of literary diaries.

The whole structure of The Tale of Genji has been understood easily as a mandala( a circle). Of course The Tale of Genji was a mandala which was picturized as correspondency of human beings to a life of the whole universe. But we must notice the relation between the expression of "narration" and an imagination of mythlogy, because one of main ideas in Genji was Buddhism of Tendai and Shingon sects. An example of a mandala could be found in Hokke Mandala as a service for Onna-San-no-miya's Buddhist figure in the volume of Suzumushi. However, not saluvation by a mandala but the stream of humanistic time was narrated here. Compared with other romances, Genji did not have the pattern of "narration", but its "narration" transformed and dissoluted the pattern. Rokujo-in had originally a circle of mythlogy and realized it through the medium of history. Moreover it changed and developed by narration of characters' life time. Compared with The Fukiage in The Tale of Utsuho or The Tales of Konjaku which had a complete circle of four seasons and four directions, we could understand the over-development of the space and time in Genji. A mandala is an imaginary space and original pattern. Fiction as one of illusions without a basis started not from Buddha or gods but from the speech of human beings who were living in earthly world. Thus a reverse of view happened. The level of "narration" of Genji critisized the idea of the world in a mandala as a pattern, and developed by objectifying itself.

Narration in The Tales of Konjaku was considered from the view-point of narration and narrators in the tales. Some examples of "narration" were analyzed in the relation to the whole structure of narration. We could notice the phase of reasonable setting by narrators and disguising of experiences by person concerned, and we also could understand the only one possible structure of narration by the narrator. Then, narrator's inhuman and heartless view-point could be found. In some scenes where characters observed some object, the relation between an observer and things to be seen or the world of the story were objectified. Thus we could call it "the literature of observation" and the organic relation between "narration" and "observation" could be studied.

Narration in romances especially as in the case of The Story of Heike was studied here, considering the original meaning of Japanese word "mono-gatari". The theme is the effect of an expression "katari" upon the written text and this is a common problem among Japanese romances. But in the case of Heike it overlapped subjective relation between history and story. Some models derived from it had to do with romances mainly as The Tale of Genji which was regarded as written text a pri-ori. Refering to Kunio Yanagida's essays on romances and Takaaki Yoshimoto's studies of anti-structurism, the problem of texts was considered.

The development from "speech" to "narration" means to weave textile of consistent expression by combination of basic "speech" elements. We could see not only phrases of speech at the beginning or the ending but also structure patterns according to the ancient and primitive principles of balance. Thus was also the same in the case of written texts, and moreover description was added here. Differences between "An Old Man with a Bump" in The Chronicle of Seinaiji-mura and the chapter of "The Devil Took Away a Bump" in The Stories of Uji-shui were studied.

The Theme of Kokoro is that it is a moralistic novel from the analysis of method and structure of the work. The teaching of Master's experiences forced readers to notice what humanity was, on the other hand it is not important to show the future prospect to the narrator. He recognized human beings as dreadful egoists. Each role of two characters was studied and as the result, we could say the narrator "I" had a role of receiver of moral through the medium of readers and a Master's role was a giver of the moral.
