Nakajima Shigyoku and the Shoheiko Academy of the 1820's

1995年的研究主要是确定诗人和西岐藩武士中岛重久的语料库的位置，并开始调查和复制他的作品。我能够调查并在很大程度上复制他的手稿在西木市教育委员会，以及那些在九州大学图书馆，国立国会图书馆和其他机构在东京。Shigyoku在二十出头的时候在江户的官方Shoheiko学院学习;这促使我集中精力收集他在那里经历的证据。关于学院，我复制并开始破译该机构教师日记的35卷，现在筑波大学图书馆拥有。Shigyoku被提升为诗歌导师在学院后，一个血腥的屠杀有一个学生的另一个。我调查这一系列事件，以充实19世纪20年代正平子的文化氛围（见“正平子学院北宿舍谋杀案，1823年”，江户文学，第14卷）。我还对学者们寄给重国的九封信进行了编辑和注释（《中岛重国的半径》，载于《开德》，第64卷）。1996年，我基本上继续了前一年的工作。完成了对Shigyoku的全部作品的编辑，我向他附近和同时代的学生的活动和作品展开。这使我开始编纂19世纪20年代的正平子学院年表。在这一年中，我进行了几次调查，在继续阅读大量的西木领域文件的同时，我思考了这些官方记录与中岛重国的文学追求之间的许多联系点。

The main thrust of this research in 1995 was to pinpoint the locations of the corpus of poet and Saiki-domain samurai Nakajima Shigyoku, and to begin surveying and reproducing his body of work. I was able to survey and to a large extent reproduce his manuscripts in the possession of the Saiki Municipal Education Committee, as well as those in the library of Kyushu University, The National Diet Library and other institutions in Tokyo. Shigyoku spent his early twenties studying at the official Shoheiko Academy in Edo ; this prompted me to concentrate on gathering evidence of his experience there. Concerning the Academy specifically, I copied and began the deciphering of thirty-five volumes of that institution's faculty diaries, now in the possession of the Tsukuba University Library. Shigyoku was promoted to Poetry Tutor at the Academy following a bloody homocide there of one student by another. I investigate this series of events in order to flesh out the cultural climate of Shoheiko in the 1820's (see "Murder in the Northen Dormitory of Shoheiko Academy, 1823", in Edo bungaku, v.14). I also redacted and provided a detrled commentary on nine letters by scholars sent to Shigyoku ("The Radius of Nakajima Shigyoku", in Kaitoku, v.64).In 1996 I basically continued the tasks laid out in the year previous. Finishing the redactions of Shigyoku's oeuvre, I spread out toward the activities and writings of the students near and contemporary to him. This has led me to start compiling of a chronology of the Shoheiko Academy in the 1820's. Throughout the year I carried out several surveys, and while continuing to read in the massive body of Saiki domain documents, I contemplated the many points of contact between these official records and the literary pursuits of Nakajima Shigyoku.
