Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to learn about the redeption of Ocho Bungaku (the tales and diaries from earlier periods of Japanese history), I studied Wagakusya in the Early Modern Period. Hitherto, research has tended to focus on the commentarial traditions and reception of individual works. I suggestted that by treating several works together, we can bring into clearer focus the commentary on and reception of those works. And, I made a database about the books of Ocho Bungaku that exist now.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

これまでの物語享受史研究は作品単位で行われていたのに対し、物語のみならず日記文学をも視野に入れ、享受者を軸としながら複数作品を総合的に扱った。その結果、従来よりも立体的に注釈や享受の実態に迫ることが可能となった。
本研究で作成した物語・日記の現存伝本に関するデータベースは、今後の物語研究・日記研究・和学者研究の基礎資料としての活用が見込まれる。
