Secret Observations - Kenchu Mikkan

Japanese: 顕註密勘 - けんちゅうみっかん

A commentary on over 400 poems from the Kokinshu, written in the early Kamakura period. 3 volumes. Also known as Kokin Hishu Sho and others. In 1221 (Jokyu 3), Fujiwara Teika added his own theory as "secret thoughts" to the commentary on the Kokinshu written by Akiaki of the Rokujo Fujiwara clan (different from the extant Akiaki Kokinshu Sho). Teika was generally positive about Akiaki's commentary, but there are also examples where the academic styles of the two men were in stark contrast. It was widely circulated in later generations and was even published during the Edo period. [Akase Tomoko]

鎌倉前期の，《古今集》の歌400余首の注釈書。3巻。別名《古今秘註抄》ほか。六条藤家の顕昭が著した古今集注釈書(現存の顕昭《古今集註》とは別)に，1221年(承久3)，藤原定家が自説を〈密勘(内密の考え)〉として書き加えたもの。定家は顕昭の注説におおむね肯定的だが，両者の学風が対照的に異なる例もみえる。後世ひろく流布し，江戸時代に刊行もされた。【赤瀬知子】
