In this essay, I will discuss the styles of the critical essays which deal with such translations of Chinese humorous tales as Kidan-shinpen, Showa-shushiroku or Seiganyogoto. Roughly classified, there are three types of critical styles: (1) the style which tries to make a narrative more interesting; (2) that which joyfully plays with a text; (3) that which makes merely an indifferent comment. Thus studying not only Chinese humor but also its criticism is very interesting.

"Haikai" was originally nothing more that a kind of humorous doggerel, but, in the early seventeenth century, there were organized some circles in which "haikai" verses were recited in a more formal way as in the presentation of "waka" poems. Some of the verses recited there refer to "haikai" itself and make fun of verse-makers' pretension, bad verse-making, or outdated stale styles. Such a kind of self-referential verses seems to have been much appreciated by the attendants and have served much to stimulate literary talks among them.

A humorous aspect of Saikaku-Ihara's Nihon-eitaigura has been often pointed out, but I don't think it has been fully discussed. Kimikazu Yano, however, recently showed an interesting idea. Yano attributes the essence of Saikaku's humor to his excellent depiction of people's ambiguous attitude towards money. But his interpretation, although brilliant and stimulating, doesn't address some important question; the change of the quality of humor. Indeed, humor is not so lively in Nihon-eitaigura as in his previous texts such as Hyaku-monogatari (part II 19) and Saikaku-shokokuhanasi (vol. 5. 7). In other words, the provoking role of the "woko" (roughly equivalent to the Western fool) is almost on the verge of disappearing in the later text. Thus what is important is not to take for granted Saikaku's humor but to know why the textual function of the "woko" became so marginalized in his later career.

It has been often said that "hanashi-bon", a genre of popular literature in the Edo Period, had undergone little change in its style and contents. Although it had a pattern firmly established, it doesn't mean that the genre didn't see any development. For example, as it changed its book-formats, the characters of the stories also changed. Here I will consider a certain mutation in the beginning and ending parts of some "hanashi-bon" stories, especially the ending of Kowa: Kanoko-mochi published in the ninth year of the Meiwa Period.

Although most of Ota-Nanpo's verses are cheerfully comical and liberating, Nanposhu, a collection of his Chinese poems, is full of regret, shame and despair instead of positive laughter. There the central object of laughter is the author himself; his career as a poor official, lack of poetical ability, or his worthless fame as a comic poet. Self-scorn and dark laughter are dominant. Here I will discuss this dark side of the poet.
