Ogawa Tazaemon Book - Ogawa Tazaemon Book

...In 1658 (Manji 1), a book of Noh plays entitled Shimaitsuke Hyakuban Shichidayu-ryu (commonly known as Shichidayu Shimaitsuke) was published, which contained katatsuki (formal patterns), sakurimono (diagrams of plays), ai (insertion lines), mabyoshi (interval rhythms), etc., but there is no other book that contains the substance of a Noh script. Detailed Noh books were published, such as the Yamamoto Chobeihon of 1659, which provided explanations and commentaries on the verses in the form of headnotes; the Rokutokuhon of the Konparu school (1681), which was the first published work to specify tsuyo (strong) and yowa (weak) recitation; and the Ogawa Tazaemonhon of the Kanze school of 1691 (Genroku 4), which was the first to include detailed naoshi (symbols indicating the details of the melody) and also noted differences in the text from the Konparu school, costumes, and the names of the composers. The format of the Noh book was almost complete during the Genroku period (1688-1704), and has been passed down to the present day, with strict revisions of the text. In addition to the common songs (around 200 numbers) of the time, many extra songs were also transcribed or published, and many different collections of songs and dances that were compilations of parts of Noh songs and small songs were also published.

…1658年(万治1)には型付，作リ物図，アイのせりふ，間拍子（まびようし）等を収載した下掛り謡本〈仕舞付百番七太夫流〉(七太夫仕舞付と通称)が出版されたが，能の台本の実質をそなえたこの本は他に例がない。引歌の説明や辞解を頭注形式で示した1659年の〈山本長兵衛本〉，刊本として最初にツヨ(強)吟･ヨワ(弱)吟を明示した金春流の〈六徳本〉(1681)，初めて詳しい〈直し〉(細部の旋律を指示する符号)を加えたほか金春流との本文の相違や装束付，作者名などを注記した1691年(元禄4)の観世流〈小河多左衛門本〉など，詳しい謡本が刊行され，謡本の形式も元禄年間(1688‐1704)にほぼ完成し，本文校訂に厳密さを加えつつ今日に引き継がれている。当時の通行曲(200番前後)のほかに多くの番外曲も書写または出版され，謡曲の一部を集めた各種各様の曲舞（くせまい）集や小謡（こうたい）本も多数出版された。…
