Chouyaku Hyakuninisshu: Uta Koi.
The Hyakunin Isshu are an anthology of one hundred poems found in a trational Japanese card game called Karuta.
Presented by the person who selected the writings, Fujiwara no Teika, this is a glimpse into the origin of some of them.
Since the majority of them are love compositions, the focus remains on romance in ancient Japan.
