Sonohi branch - Sonpibunmyaku

Japanese: 尊卑分脈 - そんぴぶんみゃく

The official title is Shinpenzu Honcho Sonpi Bunmyaku Keifu Miscellaneous Collection. It is a compilation of genealogies of various families that were established during the Northern and Southern Courts period. Compiled by Toin Kosada. In the Edo period, it was published under the title Shoka Daikeizu. After Kosada compiled it, several generations of the Toin family, including Toin Mitsunobu and his son Sanehiro, were involved in compiling the genealogy. Due to the many additions and corrections, it is nearly impossible to guess the original form, but the following can be considered. As the title "Sonpi" indicates, it seems likely that there was another imperial family tree that is not in the current edition, which interpreted ordinary aristocrats as humble and the emperor as son. The notes contain the words "Shinto priest family tree" and "Shrine official family tree," so it seems that there were also family trees with the duties of Shinto priests, the four paths (Kiden, Myokyo, Myoho, San), Iin (medo, onmyodo), and Gakusho (maijin, housho, ryuteki, hichiriki). The clans of the imperial family were arranged in the order of the Minamoto clan, the Taira clan, and the Tachibana clan, and the various branches of the Shinto priest Fujiwara clan were arranged after them. In the current version, the Fujiwara clan is the center, and the majority of the family trees are made up of these. First, the regent family of the Northern family, then the descendants of the Northern family Fujiwara no Fuyutsugu, then the branches that split off before Fuyutsugu, followed by the Southern family, the Ceremony family, and the Kyoto family. In addition, the Sugawara family tree in the current book is probably part of the Kiden family of the four paths, the Kiyohara family tree is also part of the Myokyo family, and the Otsuki family tree is also part of the Sando family. The genealogies of the various imperial families are not uniform, with some lacking the Taira family tree and some with differences in the details of the supplementary records. Many of the people who subsequently copied this genealogy were first-class aristocrats, such as Kanroji Chikanaga, Sanjonishi Sanetaka, and Nakamikado Nobutane (1442-1525), and it is likely that they added and revised it in various ways based on their knowledge. Because it is so large, various variant versions likely emerged as it was copied and rewritten many times. Current copies include 30, 20, and 18 volumes. It is essential for researching the genealogies of aristocrats from ancient times to the Middle Ages. Included in the Kokushi Taikei.

正称は『新編纂図本朝尊卑分脈系譜雑類要集』。南北朝時代に成立した諸家の系図の集大成。洞院 (とういん) 公定編。江戸時代には『諸家大系図』の書名で出版された。公定が編纂してからのちも，洞院満季，その子実煕ら洞院家数代が系図の編纂に関与している。多くの増補訂正が行われたために，原形態を推測することが不可能に近いが，およそ次のような内容が考えられる。書名の「尊卑」が示すように，一般の貴族を卑とし，天皇を尊と解釈して，現行本にはない天皇家系図がほかにあったらしいこと。注の文章中に『神祇道系図』『社官系図』などの文字があるから，別に神祇道，四道 (紀伝，明経，明法，算) ，医陰 (医道，陰陽道) ，楽所 (舞人，鳳笙，竜笛，篳篥) を職掌とする家の系図もあったらしいこと。皇別の諸氏が源氏，平氏，橘氏の順で配列され，これに神別の藤原氏の諸流が配列されていたらしいこと。現行のものでは，藤原氏を中心にして大半がその系図で占められている。まず北家の摂関家，次に北家藤原冬嗣以降に分れた子孫諸流，次に冬嗣以前に分れた支流を配列し，以下南家，式家，京家の順である。また現行本にある菅原氏系図は諸道系図の四道のうちの紀伝道の一部，清原氏系図は同じく明経道の一部，小槻氏系図は同じく算道の一部であろうと思われる。皇別諸氏の系図でも，平氏系図を欠くものや，増補記事の詳疎の差があるなど一様ではない。その後，この系図を筆写した人々には，甘露寺親長，三条西実隆，中御門宣胤 (1442～1525) など一流の貴族が多く，彼らの学識によって種々の加筆校訂がみられたものと思われる。大部のため，転々書写されていくうちに種々の異本が生じたものであろう。現行の写本では 30冊，20冊，18冊などといろいろである。古代から中世の貴族の家系を調べるうえで不可欠のもの。『国史大系』所収。
