Uji Shūi Monogatari (宇治拾遺物語) is a collection of Japanese tales written around the beginning of the 13th century.
The title means "gleanings from Uji Dainagon Monogatari", a book which no longer exists.
Following in the footsteps of Konjaku Monogatarishū, it is the representative setsuwa work of the Kamakura period.
However, few of them are original, with many stories containing common elements from earlier works such as Konjaku Monogatarishū.
The tales collected in Uji Shūi Monogatari can be split into the following major categories: Some tales contain Buddhist didactic elements, but the overall work does not place a particularly strong emphasis on Buddhism, setting it apart from many other setsuwa collections.
