From the Edo period to the Meiji period, how did rakugo, a popular art form, influence novels? How did rakugo meet and confront modern Western art? In addition to' Kaidan Botan no Toro,'' Kaidan Midori no Enoki,'' Shinkei Kasanegafuchi,' and' Nishiki no Mai' by Encho SANYUTEI, rakugo by storytellers who were active during the same period, such as Enyu SANYUTEI, Kairakutei Burakku, and Banshuro Enshi, are also on the subject of discussion. Through these discussions, the author carefully reads through the aspects of the Meiji period stories and the ways in which' humanity' is spoken. He reconsiders the issue of the consistency of words and sentences and the' humanity' theory by Shoyo Tsubonochi, analyzes the process in which novels are adapted to rakugo, and various aspects in which stories cross the media such as novels, rakugo (comic storytelling), and kodan storytelling, and presents a new horizon for research on modern Japanese literature and adaptation research.
