元禄3年「西本願寺下乗一件」の要因と背景

抄録

The primary concern of this paper is to clarify the causes and background of "Nishi Hongwanji Gejo Ikken" in 1690. I use three research methods. Firstly, I examine the relation of the Buketenso (CHIGUSA Arikore and YANAGIHARA Sukekado) and the Giso (KAJUJI Tuneyoshi). Secondly, I consider the position of the Nishi Hongwanji Temple at the Tenno and his court in the early period of the early modern times. Thirdly, I examine meaning of "Tyokusyo". The main findings of this paper are as follows. 1. There was the discord between the Buketenso (CHIGUSA Arikore and YANAGIHARA Sukekado) who gave the Nishi Hongwanji Temple's will to the Tenno and the Giso (KAJUJI Tuneyoshi) who gave the Higashi Hongwanji Temple's one. 2. The position of the Nishi Hongwanji Temple at the Tenno and his court was not high in the early period of the early modern times. 3. "Tyokusyo" symbolized the authority of the Tenno and his court, so the Nishi Hongwanji Temple made use of it to get the authority of the Tenno and his court.
