| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the early modern period, a variety of political information was transmitted through letters exchanged among feudal lords. This study collects and analyzes the letters that were used to transmit such political information. The study clarified how and by what route the information was transmitted by means of letters.
Since the letters of the time are basically undated, it is necessary to date them in order to use them in research. In this study, we also accumulated data on letters to be used for dating.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
歴史研究における重要な一次史料であり、近世前期における政治情報伝達の手段であった書状には、年代が記されず、“やりとり”した当事者同士での了解事項を前提に記載されているという史料的な扱いにくさがある。本研究は、こうした書状の扱いにくさを克服するため、書状による“やりとり”の復元を試みたものである。近世前期政治史を考える上で最も有用な史料といえる武家書状について、その史料的弱点を補い、書状史料から最大限の情報を引き出す一つの方法論を獲得した。
