Empress of Emperor Ichijo, daughter of Fujiwara Michitaka. Her mother was Takashina no Kishi. In February 990 (Shoreki 1), she became Nyogo (consort) and in October, Chugu (empress). In 996 (Choutoku 2), she became a nun after her elder brothers Korechika and Takaie shot and threatened Emperor Kazan, but she returned to the Imperial Court and gave birth to Princess Shushi and Prince Atsuyasu. In 1000 (Chohō 2), Michinaga's daughter Shoshi became Chugu (empress), and she became empress, setting a precedent for two empresses to be born to one emperor. On December 15 of that year, she gave birth to Princess Bisi, and died the next day. Sei Shonagon served Empress Teishi, and in "The Pillow Book" she describes Teishi's life in detail. However, it is notable that she makes almost no mention of Teishi's misfortunes. [Yutaka Yamanaka] Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
一条(いちじょう)天皇の皇后、藤原道隆(みちたか)の女(むすめ)。母は高階貴子(たかしなのきし)。990年(正暦1)2月女御(にょうご)、10月中宮となる。996年(長徳2)兄伊周(これちか)、隆家が花山(かざん)法皇をおどし射(う)ちする事件によりいったん出家したが、ふたたび参内、脩子(しゅうし)内親王、敦康(あつやす)親王が生まれた。1000年(長保2)道長の女彰子(しょうし)が中宮にたったため皇后となり、一天皇に二后併立の例を開いた。この年12月15日、媄子(びし)内親王を産み、翌日亡くなった。定子皇后には清少納言が仕えており、『枕草子(まくらのそうし)』には定子の身辺について詳しく記している。だが、定子の不遇に関しては、ほとんど触れていないのが特徴である。 [山中 裕] 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 |
