Goin - Goin

Japanese: 後院 - ごいん

〘noun〙 Originally, it was a backup palace set up in addition to the emperor's regular palace. It is one of the detached palaces. In the early period, there were also post-abdication palaces for the emperor, empress dowagers, and grand empress dowagers. It often became the palace after abdication (Sentōin Palace). It was established during the reign of Emperor Saga in the early Heian period, and it is believed that Reizei-in was assigned to it at that time. In addition to Reizei-in, there were also Suzaku-in, Horikawa-in, and Toba-in. Staff included post-inshi (goin offices) such as betto and azukari ( custodians) , forming the Goincho (Goin Office). From the end of the Heian period onwards, under retired emperors who became "chiten no kimi," no post was established for the emperor, and the post-in territories (goin no azukari) were managed by the retired emperor as post-in territories. It can also refer to an economic entity or management agency that includes manors attached to post-in territories.

〘名〙本来は、天皇の常の御所のほかに設定された予備的な御所。離宮の一つ。天皇のほか皇太后、太皇太后の後院も初期には存在した。譲位後の御所（仙洞院御所）となることが多い。平安初期嵯峨天皇のとき置かれ、この時は冷泉院があてられたとみられる。冷泉院の他に、朱雀院や堀河院、鳥羽院などがある。職員には別当、預(あずかり)などの後院司(ごいんし)があり、後院庁を形成する。平安末期以降「治天の君」となる上皇の下では天皇の後院は置かれず、その後院領(ごいんのあずかり)は院領として上皇が管理した。後院に付属する荘園などを含む経済体や管理機関を示す場合もある。こういん。※続日本後紀‐承和三年（836）二月壬午「河内国丹比郡荒廃田十三町宛_二皇太后宮後院_一」※宇津保（970‐999頃）蔵開上「ごゐむにとて、年比造らせ給ふ、〈略〉広くおもしろき院あり」
