Paper that was folded and carried in a pocket, used to write poems and such, or used as tissue for noses. Also called "tatangami," it appears in many literary works from the Heian to Edo periods. At first, it was a hobby of the educated, and the nobles favored danshi (Mutsu paper), but in samurai society, sugiharashi paper became popular, and the type of paper used and the folding method changed over time. It is also included in the Nippon-Portuguese Dictionary (1603). In modern times, it can also refer to folded thick paper coated with lacquer or tannins to hold combs and other items.

折り畳んで懐中に入れ、歌などを書いたり、鼻紙に用いたりした紙。「たたんがみ」ともいい、平安から江戸時代までの文学作品にもきわめて多くの用例が出てくる。最初は教養のある者のたしなみとして、公家(くげ)社会では檀紙(だんし)(陸奥紙(みちのくがみ))などを愛用したが、武家社会になると杉原紙(すぎはらし)が好まれるなど、時代によって用いられる紙の種類や折り畳み方などに変化がみられる。『日葡(にっぽ)辞書』(1603)にも採録されている。また近代では櫛(くし)などを入れるための、漆(うるし)や渋(しぶ)などを塗った厚紙を折り畳んだものをよぶ場合もある。 [町田誠之] [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
