Afterword - Nochikagami

Japanese: 後鑑 - のちかがみ
Afterword - Nochikagami

A history book about the Ashikaga Shogunate compiled by the Edo Shogunate. Edited by the Confucian scholar Narushima Ryojo (Chikuzan), following the example of the Kamakura Shogunate's Azuma Kagami. Published in 1853 (Kaei 6). The original was handed down to the Geography Division of the former Ministry of Home Affairs, but was destroyed in the Great Kanto Earthquake. Influenced by the Tokugawa Jikki, the book presents the achievements of each Shogun in chronological order, with an editorial policy that clearly indicates their sources. Set against the backdrop of the development of textual research in the Edo period, the book features historical records and documents, and includes many documents that are now lost, making it a valuable collection of historical materials. Many of the documents and records held by the National Archives of Japan were used as editing materials. Included in the Kokushi Taikei.

江戸幕府が編纂(へんさん)した足利(あしかが)将軍家に関する歴史書。鎌倉幕府の『吾妻鏡(あづまかがみ)』に倣って奥儒者成島良譲(なるしまりょうじょう)(筑山(ちくざん))が編集にあたった。1853年(嘉永6)成立。原本は旧内務省地理課に伝来したが関東大震災で焼失。『徳川実紀』の影響を受け、将軍一代ごとに事績を編年体で掲示し、あわせてその典拠を明示する編集方針をとっている。江戸時代の考証学の発展を背景とし、古記録・古文書などの史料自体を掲載しているため、現在散逸した古文書多数を含み、史料集としても貴重。編集材料には、国立公文書館所蔵の古記録・古文書が多く利用されている。『国史大系』所収。
