Abstract

How was "episteme" articulated, integrated and spread in Edo culture? What part did it have in forming modern literature? Now seems to be the time when we should make some attempt to grasp the meaning of the epistemological configuration of the age. In this sense, it is important to focus on those encyclopaedias which were compiled during the Edo Era, because they played a central role in making the system of knowledge. In this essay, I will consider the relationship between Kyoden-yomihon and Kinmokoji-yogen as one example.
