Item Details
Description
1706 Japanese Medicine China Okamoto Doctor Nankyou Hongi Genkai Woodblock Print



An interesting 18th century woodblock-print of old Chinese medicinal texts. Okamoto’s book ‘Difficult Explanations of Meaning’ is his attempt to write an easy-to-understand explanation book for those who wished to become doctors.



Kazuko Okamoto was a Japanese doctor in the Edo era who published the most medical books among the doctors of the Edo period. Though much of his lectures are attributed to his disciples and their correction, his works and medical texts were known for having been written in kanji, and the commentary book explained using kana.



This rare 5 volume 1706 edition is written in a column format with furigana usage for easier reading bound in the “fukurotoji (variously translated as “bound-pocket,” or “pouch” binding)” style (Keio)!
