Large 8vo 286 x 215 mm. early paper wrappers new stitching. Japan: chokuban privately published by the Emperor Go-Mizunoo’s order 1621. First edition and a fine complete set of one of the very few surviving “imperial editions” printed with movable type kokatsujiban 夿´»å—版. There is considerable modern debate with no definitive conclusion whether this book was printed with metal or wooden type see below. It is of very great rarity and we find no printed copy in WorldCat. This enormous publication is by far the largest of the eight surviving chokuban imperial printings and the only surviving Gen’na chokuban 元和勅版 — imperial printing during the reign 1611-29 of Emperor Go-Mizunoo 後水尾天皇 1596-1680. The production of this large work was a very complex and difficult project employing the recently imported technology of movable type from Korea. The Song dynasty editor Jiang Shaoyu active 12th century compiled the substantial encyclopedia Huang Song shi shi lei yuan 皇宋事實類苑 of the writings of Chinese courtly scholars completed in 1145. Encouraging the preservation of Chinese traditions long valued by aristocrats Emperor Go-Mizunoo continued the project initiated by his father Emperor Go-YÅzei of printing imperially commissioned volumes of Chinese literary classics with the present work a collection of Confucian texts that were considered both an ethical and a literary legacy of the court. Some of the many topics include music medicine painting calligraphy supernatural events safeguarding the border and controlling the unruly. “The earliest surviving books printed in Korea with movable type date from the late fourteenth century…During the invasion of the Korean peninsula undertaken by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in the closing years of the sixteenth century…large numbers of printed books were looted and printing type was removed from the Printing Office and taken to Japan…It appears that Korean type was immediately put to use to print the text of the…Kobun kokyo Classic of Filial Piety in 1593 although no copies of this appear to have survived. In 1597 in the postface to another work printed in Japan with movable type a monk who was present at Hideyoshi’s headquarters acknowledged that typography in Japan had come from Korea. It was not clear whether any Korean printing artisans came to Japan as well as a result of the invasion but in any event the impact on Japan of Korean typography both technologically and intellectually was far greater than that of the Jesuit Mission Press principally because the imported Korean typography was much closer to the centres of power in Japan than the increasingly precarious Jesuit missions.”–Kornicki The Book in Japan p. 129. Emperor Go-YÅzei who nominally ruled Japan from 1586 to 1611 “displayed great enthusiasm for the new process and not content with the original type brought back from Korea ordered a new set of wooden type to be made. This was engraved between 1597 and 1602 and the books printed from this new type are generically known as choku-han or ‘imperial printings.’ Indeed ‘imperial’ is a fitting description of these works for they are among the finest unillustrated books ever produced in Japan. Not only was the typeface larger but the best-quality paper and the finest ink were used to achieve effect. Very few choku-han works were actually printed between 1597 and 1603 actually 1621 and if we exclude the 1593 edition of Kobun kokyÅ almost all the titles were copies of Chinese philosophical classics… “One other choku-han is known to have been printed by order of Emperor Go-Mino-o Emperor Go-YÅzei’s son and successor in 1621 and that is the Horuien the present work although one or two other titles were printed and have been lost. All these works are considerable examples of the printer’s art and show how quickly the Japanese were able to make full and aesthetic use of movable type.”–Chibbett The History of Japanese Printing and Book Illustration p. 69. At the time of the writing of the Hyde sale catalogue it was believed that the present work was printed with copper type; the latest research has suggested that wooden type was used. No final conclusion has been reached. See Kornicki Printing Technologies and Book Production in Seventeenth-Century Japan Cambridge: 2025 p. 26 for a discussion. Very fine and fresh set.
