Review book - hyousho (English spelling) píng shū
Chinese storytelling. Its founder was Liu Jingting (1587-1670?). Hyosho is the name used in the north, Hubei, and Sichuan. In Jiangnan and Fuzhou, it is called Hyowa. There are differences in style, language, and presentation methods, but they all share the use of folding fans, hand towels, and pieces of wood (sometimes jade) called 'Sakigi'. The stories include dynasty stories such as "Three Kingdoms" and "Western Han", battle stories such as "Yue Fei" and "Ying Lie", green forest stories such as "Shui Hu" and "Seven Heroes and Five Elements", and gods and monsters stories such as "Journey to the West", "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", and "Jigong Biography". Originally, there were stories taught by masters and those based on printed texts, but many of the masters belonged to the former school, and formed a school of reading "Three Kingdoms" and narrating "Shui Hu".

Japanese:
中国の講談。柳敬亭(1587‐1670?)を始祖としている。評書は北方,湖北,四川などでの呼称。江南,福州では評話と呼ぶ。それぞれ風格,言語,演出法に相違はあるが,扇子,手ぬぐいと醒木なる木片(玉もある)を打つのは共通である。出し物は王朝物に《三国》《西漢》,合戦物に《岳飛》《英烈》,緑林物に《水滸》《七俠五義》,神怪物に《西遊記》《聊斎志異》《済公伝》などあり,もとは師伝のものと活字をもとにしたものとがあったが,名人は前者に多く属し,《三国》読み《水滸》語りの流派を形成していた。
