Collection of Jewel - Shugyokushu

Jien's family collection. Compiled by Prince Son'en Nyudo. Five or seven volumes. Published in 1346 (Shohei 1, Sadawa 2). One of the Rokukashu. Using poems left by Jien as the source material, the collection of 100 poems was compiled in 1328 (Kareki 3), more than 100 years after Jien's death, and was completed 18 years later with the addition of other parts. The book is thought to be five volumes, with a total of over 5,900 poems (including thematic poems and poems by others), but there are three uncollected types of 100 poems and one type of 50 poems that have been passed down separately.

On the other hand, the seven-volume version also seems to be a variant that arose during the compilation process, but the total number of poems is less than that of the five-volume version, and there are some interchanges between the two. The "Shugyokushu" is a fundamental resource for research on the poet Jien, who is the second most numerous poet in the "Shin Kokinshu" (92 poems), but it also shows a free-spirited style that deviates from the Shin Kokinshu style.

慈円(じえん)の家集。編者は尊円入道親王。5巻または7巻。1346年（正平1・貞和2）成立。六家集の一つ。慈円の手元に遺(のこ)された詠草を原資料として、慈円の没後100年余を経た1328年（嘉暦3）百首歌の類聚(るいじゅう)が成り、さらに18年後その他の部分を増補して完成した。その本は五巻本と思われ総歌数5900首余（題歌や他人歌を含む）であるが、なお未収の百首歌3種、五十首歌1種などが別に伝わる。

　一方、七巻本も成立過程で生じた異本らしいが、総歌数は五巻本より少なく、相互に出入りもある。『拾玉集』は『新古今集』入集歌数第2位（92首）の歌人慈円研究の根本資料であるが、新古今風から外れた自由奔放な詠風もみられる。
