Abstract

To examine the unique value of Yu Shaoan Pidian Wenxuan Xinjue in relation to historical literary anthologies, this study compares and analyzes its editions compiled and annotated with critical remarks by Yu Ji(1272–1348) during the Yuan dynasty. Books featuring commentary and critical remarks on poetry and literature emerged during the Southern Song Dynasty when those analyzing reading and writing methods, targeted at scholars engaged in academic pursuits to pass the imperial examinations, were compiled and published. Yu Shaoan Pidian Wenxuan Xinjue, compiled by Yu Ji, was published by adding commentary to works such as Lü Zuqian’s Guwen Guanjian, Xie Fangde’s Wenzhang Guifan, and Zhen Dexiu’s Wenzhang Zhengzong, along with the works of Song dynasty literati, including Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan, Ouyang Xiu, and Su Shi. This study organizes the series of editions of Yu Shaoan Pidian Wenxuan Xinjue compiled in China and Japan. Furthermore, the author discovered an edition that was circulated from Joseon to Japan and conducted a philological investigation to reveal its origins. Yu Shaoan Pidian Wenxuan Xinjue was circulated and reproduced in East Asia’s Chinese character cultural sphere; thus, as a valuable source, the text provides insight into one facet of the exchange of books and literature in premodern East Asia. In particular, since it is an example of a text that circulated from China to Joseon, and again from Joseon to Japan while retaining its original form when reprinted, this work can shed new light on Joseon and the value of Joseon books. Follow-up research should thoroughly examine different editions and provide a comprehensive analysis of thecritical remarks encompassing the entire Yu Shaoan Pidian Wenxuan Xinjue.
