A Biographical Study on UEDA Akinari

在本研究项目的最后三年即2000年度，对上田秋成60年至76年的传记资料进行了研究。在这段时间里，他专注于写浪漫小说，制作waka或wabun。作为研究的结果，获得了以下信息，以“研究结果报告”的形式排列，以及Akinari的工作列表和Akinari职业生涯的时间记录。1.在日本古典文学研究方面，秋成先生从一开始就致力于平安文学的研究，到晚年则致力于《万夕》的研究。从74岁开始，他的研究被吸收到他的历史小说《春同物语》中。几个关于春同物语的故事，如千片平、天松乙女、海都等，都是他多年研究的成果。尽管普遍接受的观点，第一份手稿的春雨物语写可能在1808年。《春同物语》的几个变体也写于1808年。在他的最后几年，Akinari依靠他的朋友，Jippo-in的牧师，Tanigawa兄弟的医生，来支持他。重要的是，这些朋友不仅给了秋成支持，还鼓励他创作各种作品。

During fiscal 2000, that constitutes the last of the three years of this study project, research was made on the materials pertaining to the biography of UEDA Akinari, from 60 years to 76 years. For this period, he was absorbed in the writing romances, and making waka or wabun. As a result of research, the following pieces of information have been obtained, that are arranged in the form of 'Report of Research Results', together with a list of work of Akinari, and a chronological record of Akinari's career.1. Concerning the study on japanese classical literature, Akinari began to study Heian literature at the start, but in his last years, he devoted himself to the study on Manyosyu. From 74 years of age, his study was absorbed into his historical novel, Harusame-monogatari. Several tales of Harusame-monogatar, for example Chikatabira, Amatsu-otome, Kaizoku were the fruits of his study for long years.2. In spite of commonly accepted view, the first manuscript of Harusame-monogatari was written probably in 1808. Several variants of Harusame-monogatari were also written in 1808.3. In his last years, Akinari depended on his friends, clergymen of Jippo-in, doctors of Tanigawa brothers, for support. It is very important that these friends not only gave the support to Akinari, but also encoureged him to write various works.
