家集を出版すること

―賀茂季鷹『雲錦翁家集』を巡って―

抄録

During the Bunka-Bunsei Period the publication of private poetry collections suddenly came into fashion. This article will elucidate this literary phenomenon through the publishing history of Kamo-no-Suetaka’s private collection Unkin-ou-kashū. The collection was very popular; it was reprinted several times by different publishers after 1,000 copies of the first edition were sold. But at first the plebeian poet of the Dōjō School declined to make public his work in spite of recommendations from his colleagues because he hated to be compared with Motoori-Norinaga who issued his poetry collection Suzunoya-shū. After thirty-year silence, however, Suetaka decided to publish his poems, not only moved by his literary friend Nagaharu-Sukeyoshi’s strong encouragement but also stimulated by Norinaga’s successful dedication of his collection to a royal member. Or he did so in the cultural context where any poets, plebeian or not, came to think it a duty to publish their own works in a less restrictive atmosphere of the age.
