*''Date: [[1881]]''
*''Authors: [[Date Munenari]], [[Matsudaira Shungaku]], [[Ikeda Mochimasa]]''
*''Japanese'': 徳川禮典録 ''(Tokugawa rei ten roku)''
The ''Tokugawa reiten roku'' is a compilation of records of [[Tokugawa shogunate]] ritual protocol, compiled by [[Date Munenari]], [[Matsudaira Shungaku]] (Yoshinaga), and [[Ikeda Mochimasa]] on the orders of the [[Meiji Emperor]], and presented to the Emperor by way of [[Iwakura Tomomi]] in [[1881]]/12.
Work began in 1940, on the 50th anniversary of Shungaku's death, to have the compilation published and made publicly available in conjunction with the publication of the first volume of Complete Works of Matsudaira Shungaku (''Matsudaira Shungaku zenshû dai-ikkan'') around the same time. Shungaku's son [[Kazoku|Marquis]] [[Tokugawa Yoshichika]]<!--侯爵徳川義親--> played a prominent role in seeing it published, and wrote a brief preface. Marquis [[Matsudaira Yasumasa]] and [[Ikeda Nobumasa]] were also significant in their support of the project.
