Edo Shogunate Diary - Edo Shogunate Diary
Diaries recorded about official business in various government offices of the Edo Shogunate. Each section of the Edo Shogunate recorded their business matters for their own reference, although the quality of the records varied depending on the era. The most basic of these were the diary of the Goyoheya (Goyoheya diary), which was the center of the Shogunate's political affairs, and the diary kept by the inner right-hand writers of the Honmaru and Nishimaru (Uhitsusho diary). These contain detailed records of events, personnel affairs, laws, etc., with a focus on the movements of the Shogun or his successor. Given their importance, these are often transcribed and compiled, and several copies are handed down.

Japanese:
江戸幕府の諸役所で公務について記した日記類のこと。江戸幕府の各セクションは,時代によって精粗はあるが,それぞれ業務上のことを備忘のため記録した。それらのなかで幕府政務の中枢である御用部屋の日記(《御用部屋日記》)と,本丸・西丸の奥右筆が記した日記(《右筆所日記》)がもっとも基本的なものである。それには将軍または世嗣の動静を中心に,諸行事・人事・法令などが巨細に記されている。これらはその重要性にかんがみ,しばしば転写編纂されていくつかの伝本をつたえている。
