Nonomiya Sadamoto

Japanese: 野宮定基 - ののみや・さだもと

Year of death: 29th June 1711 (13th August 1711)
Year of birth: July 14, 1669 (August 10, 1669)
A family of courtiers and priests in the early Edo period. According to one theory, he died on the 28th. He was the second son of Nakanoin Michishige. His first name was Chikamune. His pen names included Shodo and Shisui. In 1677 (Enpo 5), he became the heir to the Nomiya family after the death of his uncle Nomiya Sadanori, and changed his name to Sadamoto. He learned courtiers and priests from Takahashi Munetsune, who was in charge of the altar. In 1694 (Genroku 7), he made an effort to revive the Kamo Festival, which had been discontinued since the Onin period, and this prompted him to focus on collecting historical materials related to the Kamo Shrine, and as a result, he compiled 220 volumes of the Gunki Ruikan. At the time, he was known as one of the four great courtiers, along with Higashizono Motokazu, Hiramatsu Tokikata, and Shigenoi Kinsumi. Arai Hakuseki also held his courtiers' learning in high regard, and he would often question him, and Sadamoto compiled his responses in the Niino Mondo. <References> Shiba Kazumori, "Lord Nomiya Sadamoto as a Loyalist" (Historical Geography, Vol. 11, No. 1)

江戸前期の有職故実家。没日は一説に28日。中院通茂の次男。初め名は親茂。号は松堂,四酔など。延宝5(1677)年,叔父の野宮定縁の死去により後嗣となって野宮家を継いで定基と改めた。御厨子所預高橋宗恒に有職故実を学ぶ。元禄7(1694)年,応仁以来断絶していた賀茂祭の再興に尽力,それをきっかけに賀茂社関係の史料の収集に力を入れ,その成果として『群記類鑑』220冊を編纂した。当時,東園基量,平松時方,滋野井公澄と並んで有職四天王と称された。新井白石もその有職の学を高く評価,たびたび質疑するところがあり,定基はその応答を『新野問答』にまとめている。<参考文献>芝葛盛「勤王家としての野宮定基卿」(『歴史地理』11巻1号)
