Gunsho Ruiju - Gunsho Ruiju

A collection of ancient documents compiled in the late Edo period. Edited by Hanawa Hokiichi. Work began in 1779 (An'ei 8), and with the help of his disciples Nakayama Nobuna and Yashiro Hirokata, the 530 volumes were published in 1819 (Bunsei 2). The collection contains 1,270 types of documents. The collection is divided into 25 sections: Shinto, Emperors, Appointments, Genealogies, Traditions, Official Positions, Laws, Official Affairs, Costumes, Writings, News, Waka, Renga, Stories, Diaries, Travelogues, Music, Kemari, Falcons, Games, Food and Drink, Battles, Samurai, Buddhists, and Miscellaneous. It contains valuable documents dating back to the early Edo period. It is an important collection of materials on Japanese history and national language and literature. It was printed using letterpress in the Meiji period, and a new edition was released during the Showa period. Hokei also planned to write a sequel, but this was not realized. It was passed down to his descendants and disciples, and after many twists and turns, it was published in letterpress form as Zoku Gunsho Ruiju in 1924 (Taisho 13). Zoku Gunsho Ruiju contains 1,150 volumes and 2,103 types of documents. After this, in the Meiji period, Ichijima Kenkichi published the "Zokuzoku Gunsho Ruiju," while Mizutani Yumihiko and Koda Shigeyuki (Rohan) published the "Shin Gunsho Ruiju."
