Goto Daiki

Japanese: 御当代記 - ごとうだいき
Goto Daiki
A record of what Mosui saw and heard from 1680 (Enpo 8) to 1702 (Genroku 15). Written by Toda Mosui. Beginning with the inauguration of the fifth shogun, Tokugawa Tsunayoshi, Mosui provides a detailed chronological account of the various events he saw and heard, including Tsunayoshi's character, the trends in his administration, the customs of Edo city, and natural disasters, with some criticism thrown in. As well as being a highly reliable historical source on the politics and social conditions of the Genroku period, it is also a good resource for examining Mosui's character as a reformer of the art of waka poetry. This book was kept secret in the home of a descendant of Mosui who emigrated to Shinshu, and was introduced to the world by Sasaki Nobutsuna in the 20th century.
