Editorial Note




An untagged e-text of Ugetsu Monogatari is available at the Japan Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing (JALLC) web site. We proofread this e-text against the printed copy-text of Ueda Akinari Zenshu, vol. 7 (Tokyo: Chuokoronsha, 1990). The e-text was then tagged with TEI-conformant SGML tags. The image of the preface is derived from Ugetsu Monogatari (Tokyo: Kobundo, 1928).

A percentage mark followed by a back slash (%\) in the copy-text indicates that the preceding two or rarely three kana should be repeated with the first kana glottalized (i.e., with a dakuten); there are also rare cases where this repetition applies to a preceding kanji, as in 暮%\.

The JALLC e-text is reproduced without change. Kanji in the e-text that were unavailable in the JIS code table are replaced with kana.
