Even though kyokabon 狂歌本 only represent a minor genre in traditional Japanese books, they do, however, give us a unique insight in aspects of Edo-period culture that we cannot possibly gain from the s...tudy of other genres of books.i In this respect, the kyokabon in the Tomita Bunko 冨田文庫 take a very special position among the various collections known to house books of this genre.ii In this paper I will focus on the phenomenon of kyokabon as a genre, on some physical aspects of kyokabon, on the composition of the Tomita Bunko, and on some of the problems we encounter in the kyokabon in the Tomita Bunko.show more
