Floating grass - Ukaregusa
A collection of hauta (traditional Japanese folk songs) and kouta lyrics. Compiled by Matsui Joya. A collection of popular songs from Kyoto and Osaka in the late Edo period, it was compiled as a handwritten copy in 1822 (Bunsei 5). In addition to the ordinary hauta songs from Kyoto and Osaka, there are sections on provincial country songs, casual songs, playful songs, and fun songs, making it valuable as a source of information on folk songs and the lifestyles of the general public. The breadth of coverage makes it a valuable contemporary document. Included in Volume 2 of the Kouta Bunko (1927) compiled by Yuasa Chikusanjin. [Nagao Kazuo]
