Research Abstract |
This research presented an uneven distribution of OURAIMONO documents in the Tohoku region along with its bibliographical and philological introduction. The results also demonstrated those documents played an important role in order to discuss the educational environment as well as socio-cultural settings in such regions as Aomori, Akita, Iwate and Yamagata during the early modern period. The most significant result, however, said that the west coastal area differed from the central area in terms of its socio-cultural settings in this period, that is to say, the coastal area was greatly influenced by cultures in Kyoto and Osaka, and the central area was affected by Edo respectively.
