Go-Fukakusa-in no Nijō

Lady Nijō was a Japanese noblewoman, poet and author. She was a concubine of Emperor Go-Fukakusa from 1271 to 1283, and later became a Buddhist nun. After years of travelling, around 1304–07 she wrote a memoir, Towazugatari, the work for which she is known today, and which is also the only substantial source of information on her life.
