📖✨ Keio’s “Lunyu shu” Manuscript Awarde

📖✨ Keio’s “Lunyu shu” Manuscript Awarded National Treasure Status ✨📖

A rare manuscript in Keio’s collection–the “Lunyu shu” (論語疏; Elucidation of the Analects), an annotation of the “Analects” by Six Dynasties Scholar Huang Kan 皇侃 (488–545) of the Liang dynasty–was recently designated a national treasure by the Japan Agency for Cultural Affairs.

“Lunyu shu”, colloquially known as the “Sayings of Confucius”, is believed to be the oldest transmitted manuscript of the “Analects” produced in China. The manuscript made its way to Japan in the pre-Heian period (before 794) and has been handed down for centuries. Its whereabouts were unknown for a long time, but was recently rediscovered and acquired by the Keio University Library.

Now officially an “Important Cultural Property (Arts and Crafts)”, the manuscript stands out in Keio’s extensive collection of over 10,000 rare books and materials, which are made available to researchers in our Rare Book Room on Mita Campus, and to the general public during regular exhibitions with Maruzen.
