have fun with Bride/Demoness -- it's surprisingly fun, amid some of the incoherence. Is this a new translation, or the one that's been around for a decade-plus?

It's the one that's been around for a while I think (it's translated by Faerie Queene, Foxs and Ren Wo Xing). As a side note, I was kinda surprised at all the translation variations w/r/t the title

[larryhammer]

That's the translation I know. I'd translate 白髮魔女傳 as something like "Romance of White-Haired Enchantress," but 魔女 is a notoriously ... broad spectrum word.
