Timeline of 1842

Other Events of 1842

  • Ichikawa Ebizô V is banished from Edo as a punishment for his extravagant lifestyle. He moves to Osaka.
  • Publication, begun in 1829, of Nise Murasaki Inaka Genji by Ryûtei Tanehiko, with illustrations by Utagawa Kunisada, is cut off by the authorities.
  • Ryukyuan embassy journeys to Edo.
  • The shogunate issues an edict instructing local authorities to provide food and fuel for foreign ships and to encourage them to leave as soon as possible, a considerable softening of policy from earlier edicts which demanded the all-out repulsion of foreign vessels.
  • The shogunate continues to implement added elements of the Tenpô Reforms.
    • Over 4,000 illegal prostitutes of Edo are arrested and moved to the Yoshiwara.
