"Dirc Potter's main work was a long poem in four parts, Der Minnen Loep (The Course of Love). It is a poem that belongs to the same family as John Gower's Confessio Amantis, written about thirty years earlier. It is also related, but more distantly, to the Decameron and the Canterbury Tales, although Potter had probably never heard of any of these books. Like Gower's poem, Der Minnen Loep is a compilation of stories illustrating various aspects of love. The first part deals with what he calls ‘silly love’, passionate love unchecked by reason, demonstrated by the case-histories of Jason and Medea, Paris and Helen, and others."--Literature of the Low Countries, A Short History of Dutch Literature in the Netherlands and Belgium, Reinder P. Meijer[1]

Jorge Luis Borges, The Total Library:

[The Tale of Genji, as translated by Arthur Waley,] is written with an almost miraculous naturalness, and what interests us is not the exoticism — the horrible word — but rather the human passions of the novel. Such interest is just: Murasaki's work is what one would quite precisely call a psychological novel. ... I dare to recommend this book to those who read me. The English translation that has inspired this brief insufficient note is called The Tale of Genji.
