Answer:

The correct answer is the intelligence of women.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of the story concerns the loves of Genji, and each of the women in his life is vividly delineated. The work shows supreme sensitivity to human emotions and the beauties of nature, but as it proceeds its darkening tone reflects the Buddhist conviction of this world's transience.
