江戸を逃れた二代目十返舎一九の写本考

Abstract

Itoi who was active in his works as Jippensya-ikku Ⅱ escaped the Edo in 1837. Through his writing activities in his hometown since he escaped Edo in 1827, I considered the situation in which the family name was stripped off in the culture of “The succession to a person’s name”. Thus in this article, which aimed to conclude Itoi’s short Biography, as the result of a bibliographic point of view survey of works since the late-thirties, it was found the following things. Itoi who had been actively publishing books in Edo, escaped Edo and returned to his hometown also wrote “Momizinonisiki-akagimonogatari” in 1840, wrote “Ninzyo-harunomasayume” and “Hanamomizi-takaranoyamauba” at Chita in 1841, but were not published. I was able to get glimpse how Itoi was in his later years, up to “Mukasibanasi” which he might have written to give a lecture Buddhism. However, I argued that the family name of “Ikku” would have been stripped off during his lifetime, as Itoi’s work could not be found thereafter.
