World Code - Sekai Koumoku

Japanese: 世界綱目 - せかいこうもく
World Code - Sekai Koumoku
A handbook for Kabuki writers. One manuscript. The original author is unknown. The copy in the University of Tsukuba says it was "written by Kanai Sansho." The original was created before 1791 (Kansei 3), and was later transcribed and supplemented by Kabuki writers. The "world," the basic concept of Kabuki and Kyogen, is categorized into eras, families, and roles, and each category lists the names of the characters that appear, reference books, and Joruri works with the same subject, with necessary notes. Three manuscripts have been confirmed, and are held by the National Diet Library, the University of Tsukuba, and the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tokyo.
