The most famous monzeki (head priest) of Kofuku-ji Temple. Its former site is in Takabatake-cho, Nara City. It was founded in 1087 (the first year of the Kanji era) by Ryuzen Hoin. It developed when the children of the regents entered the temple, starting with Jinhan, the son of the third regent Fujiwara Morozane. During the Kamakura period, head priests from the Kujo and Ichijo families held the position of head priest of Zenjo-in and Ryugeju-in, and controlled branch temples such as Hasedera and Eikyu-ji, manors, temple monks, priests, and various commercial and industrial establishments, forming a major influence on a par with Ichijo-in. It gradually declined after the Muromachi period. In the early modern period, it continued to exist as a temple with 951 koku of red seal land, but after the Meiji Restoration, it was abolished when its head priest returned to secular life.

興福寺を代表する門跡(もんぜき)。奈良市高畑町に旧跡がある。隆禅法印(りゅうぜんほういん)によって1087年(寛治元)に創設された。3代目の関白藤原師実(もろざね)の子尋範(じんはん)より摂関家の子弟が入室して発展。鎌倉時代、九条家や一条家出身の門主は禅定(ぜんじょう)院や龍華樹(りゅうげじゅ)院等の院主を兼帯し、長谷寺(はせでら)・永久(えいきゅう)寺などの末寺、荘園、寺僧、坊人(ぼうにん)、各種の商工業座などを支配して、一乗院と並ぶ大勢力を形成した。室町時代以降、しだいに衰退。近世には朱印地951石を有する門跡として存続したが、明治維新後、門主が還俗(げんぞく)したことによって廃絶した。 [稲葉伸道] 『永島福太郎著『奈良文化の伝流』(1951・目黒書店)』 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
