Regrettably, Mineko Matsumura, a tanha poet and translator, is long for gotten. Her excellent translations into Japanese of Irish literature were once much praised by Kan Kikuchi and Ohgai Mori among others. This paper deals with her inner life in terms of the conflict between a realist and a fancier. The strife could encourage her to produce outstanding translations as well as many impressive tanka poems.
