 note = {As Japan's first encyclopedia of sex, Koshoku kinmo zui drew on the long history of East Asian sex education to deliver not only a technical guide to activities in the bedroom but also pointers on how to manage intimate relationshps, and a wealth of other information pertaining to various aspects of koshoku (eros lust, sex).  Illustrated and probably also written by Floating World artist Yoshida Hanbei (act. late 17th century), the book overcame the limitations of earlier publications, such as guides to the pleasure quarters, health manuals and purely erotic books, to present a comprehensive view of sexual life.  This article examines the wider social context of peace and prosperity that supported Hanbei's ambitious effort to encompass the range of sexual experience in a single volume, then traces the characterisrics of previous works related to sex, and provides a detailed survey of the contents of Hanbei's book.  The discussion offers Koshoku kinmo zui as important evidence for understanding sexual experience in Japan during the first part of the Edo period.},
