An Historical Study of Yomihon Publishing and Circulation in the Nineteenth Century

我们目前的研究目标是完成第一本《读卖新闻年表和核对表》的临时版本。我们今年的工作重点是重新努力调查收集的数据，以补充我们去年已经收集和整理的数据，以及重新考虑今年的调查计划。在安排了今年书目实地工作的详细时间表后，我们开始讨论书目数据的记录方法。这一方法论讨论的结果是减少了每个条目的书目字段数量，从我们为所谓的“全文”读物馆计划的数量减少，并继续存在记录不同印刷细节的问题。从去年开始，我们继续对私人收藏进行调查，并从国家饮食图书馆的收藏中收集必要的照片副本。特别值得一提的是我们调查的o…更多的是印刷博物馆收藏的铃木德藏的手稿和其他材料，以及立山市博物馆收藏的与Kyokutei Bakin的Hakkenden有关的材料，在这些材料中，我们确定了一本完整的Hakkenden节选书籍的第一版。此外，我们在8月和11月两次前往广岛大学图书馆，调查了该图书馆以前无法调查的重要藏品250件，并为这些藏品完成了书目工作和数字图像的拍摄。由于这个藏品中有我们在其他地方找不到的物品，所以这次旅行特别有价值。今年的研究产生了一些重要的新信息，虽然我们距离能够产生一份权威的读卖新闻检查表还有很长的路要走，但我们已经汇编了一份临时的《读卖新闻出版年表和检查表》。最后，由于研究不同文本的重要任务仍然存在，我们计划延长目前的研究，并根据长期研究说明书申请额外的资金。较少

The current aim of our research is the completion of a provisional version of the first 'Chronology and Checklist of Yomihon Publishing'. The focus of our work for the current year has been a renewed effort to survey collections to supplement the data we already collected and put into order last year as well as a rethinking of this year's survey plan. After arranging a detailed schedule for this year's bibliographical fieldwork, we proceeded to a discussion of methodology for recording bibliographical data. The results of this methodological discussion were to reduce the number of bibliographic fields per entry from what we had planned for so-called 'full length' yomihon and to continue to next year the problem of recording the details of variant printings.From last year, we continued our survey of private collections and the gathering of necessary photo duplications of materials from the National Diet Library's collection. In particular, deserving of special mention are our survey's o … More f the manuscript and other materials of Suzuki Tokuzo Collection at the Printing Museum and the collection of materials relating to Kyokutei Bakin's Hakkenden at the Tateyama City Museum in which we identified a complete first edition of a book of excerpts of the Hakkenden. In addition, we made two trips to the Hiroshima University Library in August and November to survey that library's important collection of 250 yomihon which we had been unable to survey previously and completed the bibliographical work and taking of digital images for this collection. As there were items in this collection which we had not found elsewhere, these trips were particularly valuable. This year's research produced some important new information and while we are still a long way from being able to produce an authoritative checklist of yomihon, we have assembled a provisional 'Chronology and Checklist of Yomihon Publishing'.Finally, as the important task of studying variant texts remains, we plan on extending the present study and have applied for additional funding based on a long term research prospectus.
