A chronological history book written in Chinese from Emperor Jinmu to Emperor Horikawa. It was written in the late Heian period by Ajari Kouen (?-1169). It places emphasis on Buddhism. It ends in 1094 (Kaho 1) during the reign of Emperor Horikawa, so it was certainly written after that. According to the Honcho Shojaku Mokuroku, which is thought to have been written in the late 13th century, it had 30 volumes, but it has now been lost and only 16 volumes remain, as well as excerpts from the reigns of Emperor Jinmu to Emperor Heizei. It was compiled with reference to the Rikkokushi and other ancient temple-related traditions, and some of the sources are clearly stated. There are some interesting articles unrelated to Buddhism, such as citing the Sumitomo Tsuihoki, but it is generally filled with articles related to Buddhism. Some of them are unreliable, but there are also valuable historical documents that are cited and have been lost today. However, there is no doubt that many of them should be criticized. The author, Koen, was a Tendai Buddhist scholar who lived at Kudokuin Temple in Enryaku-ji Temple, and one of his disciples was the famous Honen (Genku). It is included in the Kokushi Taikei.

神武(じんむ)天皇から堀河(ほりかわ)天皇までの漢文編年体の歴史書。平安末期の成立で、著者は阿闍梨皇円(あじゃりこうえん)(?―1169)。仏教関係に重点が置かれている。堀河天皇の1094年(嘉保1)で終わっているので、この後に成立したことは確かである。13世紀後半に成立したと考えられている『本朝書籍目録(ほんちょうしょじゃくもくろく)』によれば30巻あったというが、現在は散逸して16巻分のほかに神武から平城(へいぜい)天皇までの抄本を残すのみである。「六国史(りっこくし)」をはじめ寺院関係の古伝などを参考に編纂(へんさん)されたもので出典を明記しているものもある。『純友(すみとも)追討記』を引くなど仏教関係以外の興味ある記事もあるが、概して仏教関係の記事で満ちている。それらは信頼できないところもあるが、出典を明示した引用書で今日失われている貴重な史料もある。しかし史料批判を加えるべきものが多いことは疑えない。著者の皇円は延暦(えんりゃく)寺の功徳院(くどくいん)に居住した天台宗の学僧で、弟子に有名な法然(ほうねん)(源空)がいる。『国史大系』に所収。 [朧谷 寿] 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 |
