本国寺版をめぐる諸問題

―『録内御書』を視点として―

抄録

Between the late sixteenth and the early seventeenth century the temples of the Nichiren Buddhist School issued a series of books called “kokatsuji-ban” or the old printed editions. Those religious texts may be of little literary value, but they can be used as excellent sources for studies on the publishing history of early modern times. For example, Honkoku-ji published Hokke-gengi-jo, the earliest “kokatsuji-ban” book. Rokunai-gosho, the posthumous collection of Nichiren’s writings, was also allegedly issued by the same temple； the typographically flawed edition B is said to be of that origin. Critically referring to Kenichi Kanmuri’s recent research on the temple’s books, this article will give further consideration on the publishing background of the edition B.
