About China-related Works Not Included in Taijun Takeda’s Complete Works：Focusing on The Peach Blossom Fan Published in Kaizosha Magazine Tairiku

The Peach Blossom Fan, published in Kaizosha’s magazine Tairiku, is not included in The Complete Works of Takeda Taijun. This paper first explores the background of the publication of Taijun in Tairiku by examining the relationship between Taijun’s works published by Kaizosha before the war and other texts that are not included in Taijun’s complete works. It then discusses The Peach Blossom Fan. Finally, in light of the politics surrounding literary exchanges and Eastern Classics Studies during the Sino-Japanese War, the paper shows the path along which this text traveled to assume its position in Taijun’s oeuvre.
