Answer to Question 1

 But over the ensuing fifty years tanci gradually slipped from prominence, becoming today a specialist interest largely by dedicated enthusiasts . . .

Answer to Question 2

 Male story-tellers dominated the public teahouses, enlivening their renditions with jokes and spicy love stories.
 A new class of women performers arose who performed in private for their patrons. These women were prized for their artistic and musical aptitude as well as their beauty.
 Publishing tanci scripts as independent literature became popular and profitable.
