Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to examine the handwritten annotation of "Maoshi Caomuniaoshouchongyu Shu毛詩艸木鳥獣虫魚疏" written by Lu Ji陸キ, hereafter abbreviated as "Lu Shu", in the Kano Collection, Tohoku University Library, and to study the character of that annotation by investigating other Chinese books in the Kano Collection. However, due to the spread of the Covid-19, this study was restricted in my investigation of the original books. Therefore, I examined the reception of “Lu Shu” in Japan, and conducted a survey of manuscripts of "詩経小識Shikyo Shoshiki" quoted in the annotation of “Lu Shu”. These results were published in the "Bulletin of Shidobunko”. In the final year of the project, when the restrictions were lifted, I was able to resume my investigation of the original books in the Kano bunko and examined the annotation.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究の学術的意義は、日本における名物書の受容とその利用について明らかにした点である。本研究が対象とした陸キ『毛詩草木鳥獣虫魚疏』（以下『陸疏』）は中国でも『詩経』の名物書として早期に著され、日本へも伝来した。しかし、早くに散佚し日本でもその原型がいつまで伝わっていたのか明らかでない。明代以降、数種の佚集本が作成され日本へ流入し、『詩経小識』等に佚集本が引用されている。これらの書物は日本の名物学を考える上で基本的な書物であるが、これまで『陸疏』の受容に関する詳細な検討や『詩経小識』の伝本の悉皆調査はほとんど行われておらず、本研究は今後日中の名物学を考える際の基礎になると考える。
