Kansei Choshu Shokafu - Kansei Choshu Shokafu

This is a collection of genealogies of samurai families compiled by the Edo Shogunate during the Kansei and Bunka eras (1789-1818). The Shogunate began compiling this book in 1799 (Kansei 11) in order to revise and revise the "Kan'ei Shoka Keizuden," and finished it in 1812 (Bunka 9). During this time, more than 60 scholars and Shogunate officials, including Wakadoshiyori Hotta Masaatsu, were involved in the compilation. The Shogunate compiled the contents based on the genealogies submitted by daimyo and hatamoto during the Jokyo and Kansei eras (1684-1801), and completed a detailed collection of genealogies with a total of 1,530 volumes, including 1,520 volumes of text and 10 volumes of lists. It is the most accurate, extensive, and reliable biographical material for samurai families in the Edo period, and is often used as a research resource. The copy presented at the time of completion is preserved in the National Archives of Japan, and copies and typeset versions from the Edo period are in circulation.

江戸幕府が寛政～文化(ぶんか)年間（1789～1818）に編集した武家系図集。幕府は『寛永諸家系図伝』を補訂、続修するため、1799年（寛政11）に本書の編集に着手し、1812年（文化9）に終了した。この間、若年寄堀田正敦(まさあつ)以下60余名の学者、幕臣が編集に従事した。幕府が貞享(じょうきょう)～寛政年間（1684～1801）に大名、旗本から提出させた家譜に基づいて内容を整え、本文1520巻と目録10巻、合計1530冊の詳細な大系図集が完成した。江戸時代の武家の伝記資料としてもっとも正確、広範で、信頼性が高く、研究資料としてよく利用されている。完成当時の献上本は国立公文書館に保存されており、江戸時代の伝写本や活版本が流布している。
