It is the earliest Japanese poetic anthology in existence and thus the most important compendium of Japanese culture of the Asuka and Nara periods. Book seventeen is the fifth volume of the Man'yōshῡ to be published to date (following books fifteen (2009), five (2011), fourteen (2012) and twenty (2013)).
