Kanroji Fujinaga

Japanese: 甘露寺藤長 - かんろじふじなが
Kanroji Fujinaga

...The direct line of the Kanju-ji family of the Northern branch of the Fujiwara clan. The family is a famous family. It began with Gon Chunagon Tamesuke, the son of posthumous Grand Minister Fujiwara Yoshikado and great-grandson of posthumous Grand Minister Takato. Tamesuke was the first to use the name Kanro-ji, but his descendants used the names Kanro-ji, Yoshida, or Bojo. However, when Fujinaga was appointed Gon Chunagon during the Nanboku-cho period, his fellow disciple Yoshida Kunitoshi was also promoted from Councillor to Gon Chunagon, so Fujinaga took the name Kanro-ji, and this has been the family name for generations. Looking at the family lineage, Councillor Tamefusa of the late Heian period is famous for writing the Daiki (Tamefusa Kyoki), and his son Councillor Tametaka is famous for writing the Eishoki, but even in the Kamakura period, Tametaka's grandson Gon Dainagon Tsunefusa wrote the Kitsuki, and Tsunefusa's great-great-grandson Gon Dainagon Tsunenaga wrote the Kitsugi. ...
