Nenashi-gusa (1763) is Hiraga-Gennai’s drama which was based on the death by drowning of Ogino-Yaegiri, an “oyama” kabuki actor. In the drama a kappa (a Japanese water goblin) plays an important part as a guide who sends Yaegiri to hell. There is an illustration of the kappa in the fifth volume, but very little has been said about it except in Teiri Nakamura’s Kappa-no-nihon-shi (1996). It is very likely that the author borrowed the illustration from Gotō-Rishun’s Zuikan-shashin (1757) with the aim of entertaining his acquaintances who must have noticed that it implicitly referred to the reported appearance of a kappa in the year before the publication of the drama. In addition to an analysis of the illustration, this article explores the structural similarity between Nenashi-gusa and its sequel, the probable influence of the author’s personal relations through herbal medicine on the formation of the drama, and so on.

Many Chinese poems were written about the big earthquake in Edo which occurred on October 2, 1885 or the second year of the Ansei Period. This fad for earthquake poetry was more widespread than has ever been thought before. This paper examines what it was through the bibliographical and textual analysis of <i>Kafuku-shū</i>, the collection of earthquake poems in the Gakken Library of the National Diet Library. As the collection shows, most of those poems were protestation against the government made by poets who fell victim to the earthquake. It tells us that the act of writing in Chinese verse was an important means of expressing one's political consciousness. The frequent use of the title "Jisin-kō" refers back to the earthquake songs in the Qing dynasty or those written about the Iga earthquake in 1884 which must have triggered the popularity of earthquake poetry in 1885.

Utei-Enba wrote <i>Ka-ni-kuwarenu-majinai-Soga</i> (1779) after the fashion of the <i>kabuki</i> play of the Soga brothers' revenge to vividly depict the scene of card gambling in colloquial style. This paper examines how the author was inspired by several dramatic works in writing it and points out that the narrative and structural characteristics of "kokkeibon" fiction can be already found in it. The origin of humorous stories in colloquial style is traced through Manzōtei's comical book <i>Inaka-shibai</i> (1787) to "ukiyo-monomane" mimic performance, but the use of dialects in them can be attributed to vernacular plays in <i>kabuki</i>. It is thus likely that <i>Ka-ni-kuwarenu-majinai-Soga</i>, a dramatic novel written in vernacular style, was the earliest form of "kokkeibon" novel which had a great influence on Shikite-Sanba and other writers of later generations.

Suzuki-Nagayori is a highly cultured master carpenter who served the Tokugawa shogunate in the early Edo Period. The carpenter became versed in poetry written in Chinese through his close relation to Hitomi-Chikudō with whom he was engaged in exchanging poems. He was instructed in waka poetry by Shimizu-Sōsen who made helpful comments on his works. He sometimes collaborated with both mentors to hold poetry exhibitions as if to embody the contemporary literary tendency of making no distinction between Japanese and Chinese writings. Suzuki also compiled a history book in the form of a comparative study of Japan, China, and Korea. He modeled it on the compilation of national history by the Hayashi clan which then caused a fad for writing history in a poetical style. In the same method he edited a poetry anthology which was remarkable for his innovative attempt to include Korean poems. In this way he played an important role in widely popularizing the Hayashi clan’s academic knowledge. His career as an intellectual will provide excellent material for studying Edo culture during the Genroku and the Kyōho Periods.

During the Bunka-Bunsei Period the publication of private poetry collections suddenly came into fashion. This article will elucidate this literary phenomenon through the publishing history of Kamo-no-Suetaka’s private collection Unkin-ou-kashū. The collection was very popular; it was reprinted several times by different publishers after 1,000 copies of the first edition were sold. But at first the plebeian poet of the Dōjō School declined to make public his work in spite of recommendations from his colleagues because he hated to be compared with Motoori-Norinaga who issued his poetry collection Suzunoya-shū. After thirty-year silence, however, Suetaka decided to publish his poems, not only moved by his literary friend Nagaharu-Sukeyoshi’s strong encouragement but also stimulated by Norinaga’s successful dedication of his collection to a royal member. Or he did so in the cultural context where any poets, plebeian or not, came to think it a duty to publish their own works in a less restrictive atmosphere of the age.

Shibaensetsu-shichininkarō (published Bunsei 4; 1821) is a “yomihon” of 5 kan / 6 satsu and is an Oie-sōdōmono (stories of feuds within samurai families) based on Sugawara-denju-tenaraikagami, etc. Although its frog monster draws attention, it has received low acclaim to date. However, the true villain is concealed until the last part (kan) of the story, and this device of a surprise ending could be called a new departure in “yomihon”. I investigate how initially, this work was scheduled to be published by a different publisher in a total of 9 kan, and due to the sudden change, the 5 kan were written hurriedly. Next, I focus on the illustration and Chinese poem placed at the beginning of the 4th kan, and demonstrate how the “Sewing corpus” of 7-5 meter is used in the scene that corresponds to the illustration, and how the Chinese poem is cited from Qing poem Nulang-ci, etc., seeing a perspective toward women. The advertisement at the end of the work for “Senjokō” fragrance, of the shop of Ōshima Den’emon, one of the publishers, also suggests an awareness of female readers. It also introduces Tamenaga-Shunsui’s critique of Kokuga, indicating the artistic contact between the two of them. In these ways, I show this work to be an ambitious work by Kokuga seeking new expression, and planning an expansion of readership.
