| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Over the two years of this study, approximately one hundred and fifty early-modern Japanese print books from West-coast American collections including a private collection in Tucson, the San Francisco Asian Art Museum, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Art Institute of Chicago were studied. The study identified several rare items in the collections, for instance an early version of the Saga-bon Thirty-six Poetic Immortals and a print of the Ogura Hyakushu Hinagata, introduced these texts to an international audience, and demonstrated links between these texts and other early-modern Japanese books. This research was presented at five international conferences and published in three journals.
