Books in the service of politics: Tokugawa Ieyasu as custodian of the books of Japan
Since the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate underwent a form of apotheosis after his death, it is not surprising that a hagiographic tradition was quick to establish itself. This tradition attributed superhuman qualities to Tokugawa Ieyasu (1543–1616), and its lingering influence is still to be seen. His admirers paid particular attention to his supposed bookishness, the object being to demonstrate that his sinological learning rendered him fit t…
Literacy Revisited: Some Reflections on Richard Rubinger's Findings
No one has done more than Richard Rubinger in recent years to explore the parameters of literacy in Japan, and his recent article in MN 55:2 (Summer 2000) should raise awareness of an issue that is often taken somewhat for granted but which impinges significantly on our understanding of Meiji society.1 Literacy is an uncommonly slippery issue, but it is not one that can properly be evaded, and Rubinger is to be thanked for having brought it to ou…

Japanese medical and other books at the Wellcome Institute
Sir Henry Wellcome (1853-1936), the founder of the Wellcome Trust, left at his death a superb collection of oriental materials relating to medicine which is now housed in the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine in London.1 Although he had a keen interest in China, which is reflected in the substantial collection of Chinese materials, he never made any systematic effort to acquire Japanese materials. Nevertheless, the Japanese collectio…

European japanology at the end of the seventeenth century
Attaining just a glimmer of an understanding of Chinese or Japanese in the seventeenth century required prodigious feats of imagination and the abandonment of widely-held convictions about the nature of language. Progress towards a rational and sophisticated understanding was held up by persuasive but fantastical theories to which lifetimes were devoted in vain. In their very different ways both languages were subversive of contemporary notions o…

The Enmeiin Affair of 1803: The Spread of Information in The Tokugawa Period
IT IS a commonplace in the cultural history of Japan that the commercial publisher came into his own in the Tokugawa period and made as if to replace the manuscript with the printed book. But notwithstanding the spread of the printed word, manuscript traditions survived and throughout the Tokugawa period a large number of works circulated only in the form of shahon X, (manuscript books). Some were simply manuscript copies of printed works, and ot…

The Publisher's Go-Between: Kashihonya in the Meiji Period
The publisher is the bride's parents, the readers are the bridegroom, and the kashihonya is the go-between
Notes on some former Kashihonya books in the library of the School of Oriental and African Studies
Most collections of Japanese wood-block printed books contain some items that were once in the possession of the circulating libraries known as kashihonya and the library of the School is no exception. Kashihonya were certainly in existence by the Genroku period (1688–1704), for the collection Haikai sugatanazo , which was published in 1703, includes the verse, Karihon no kakidashi ga kuru toshizakai ‘The year's end—when the bills come in for boo…
