This exhibition introduces a variety of illustrations found in \u201cbooks in kana\u201d (kanaz\u014dshi) and \u201cbooks of the floating world\u201d (ukiyoz\u014dshi), focusing on the culture of publication and circulation of books in the Edo period that gave rise to the common and popular through the elegant and beautiful.<\/p>\n<h3>Date\/Venue<\/h3>\n<p><b>Venue\uff1a<\/b>Exhibition room, Center for Scholarly Information 2F<br \/>\n<b>Date\uff1a<\/b>from 1<sup>st<\/sup> October 2021 to 11<sup>th<\/sup> November 2021<br \/>\n<b>Opening hours\uff1a<\/b>10:00am &#8211; 6:00pm<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Admission free<\/li>\n<li>Closed on Sundays (except 10\/24\u300111\/7)<\/li>\n<li>Closing at 5:00pm on 10\/24\u300111\/5\u300111\/6\u300111\/7<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Note<\/h3>\n<p>For preventing COVID-19, <b>read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/library\/assets\/uploads\/2021\/09\/e7775b840d9308aa15a7db017f2b245c.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&#8220;Important notice regarding the exhibition&#8221;<\/a> in advance<\/b> when visiting.<\/p>\n<h3>List of Exhibits<\/h3>\n<p><i>Ise monogatari\u3001Bunsho-soshi\u3001Chikusai\u3001Heiji monogatari\u3001Nise monogatari\u3001Eyiri-Genji-monogatari\u3001Kyowarabe\u3001Tokaido meisho no ki\u3001Yoshiwara-komazarai\u3001Hachikazuki\u3001Atariya shitajihon doiya\u3001Edo-suzume\u3001Koshoku-ichidai-otoko\u3001Koshoku-ichidai-otoko\u3001Koshoku-yedo-murasaki\u3001Yamaji-no-stuyu\u3001Budo-denrai-ki\u3001Nippon-eitai-gura\u3001Chushin- migawari-monogatari\u3001Seken-mune-sanyo\u3001Hyakunin-isshu\u2019zo san sho\u3001Yakusha-kuchi-jyamisen\u3001Wakakusa-genji-monogatari\u3001Iro-hiina-gata\u3001Kontan-iroasobi-futokoro-otoko<\/i><\/p>\n<h3>Virtual Museum<\/h3>\n<p>Some materials are also available online.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.waseda.jp\/?clp=3o7fh&#038;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Virtual Museum | Waseda University Cultural Resource Database<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A special commentary video on this exhibition was just released.
