"Murasaki Shikibu," a Japanese nobleman, is the author of "The Tale of Genji," written in the middle of Japan's Heian period. The story is considered one of Japan's most important literary masterpieces. The last ten chapters are often referred to as "Uji-Jujo," since all major acts in the city are played by Uji.
