[pmjs] A new book on the Man'yoshu

Yasuhiko Ogawa comunica :

Dear PMJS members, I am pleased to inform you that I have published my first book, _Man’yo Gakushi no Kenkyu (A Study of the History of the Classical Scholarship on the Man’yoshu)_. I considered the study and reception of the _Man’yoshu_ from the 9th to the 16th centuries in their historical and cultural contexts, and from a bibliographical viewpoint. (I do not characterize its history as a scholarly development from a primitive or immature to a present high stage.) It consists of 16 chapters with 29 images, including the letter of Sengaku, a learned monk in the 13th century, as well as Heian-period manuscripts of the _Man’yoshu_. I would be happy if you took interest in it. If you need a copy, please contact me. I can pass on your order to directly the publishers, Ofu, who can provide it to you at a somewhat reduced price.
