| Research Abstract |
<Purposes, objectives, and methods of study>
At Ise Jingu, the 61st "Shikinen Sengu", the reconstruction of the sanctuary buildings and the renewal of the sacred materials, took place in October, 1993. "Shikinen Sengu" has been playing a core role in the religious ceremonies, piety, history and institutions of Ise Jingu. The tradition of the "Shikinen Sengu" was strictly inherited for centuries though some new elements were taken in with each era. "Shikinen Sengu" is not only the representation of the Shito ceremonies, but also has a strong relationship with such Japanese cultural elements as architecture, public styles of religious piety, and sense of beauty. This study aims to make inquiry into "Shikinen Sengu" which has the above mentioned significance, especially into its entirety at each era and the process of its historical transition. This study also aims to recognize its significance in the whole body of Japanese culture.
As to the specific research methods, we divided the research into the following five categories : ideology, ceremonies, history, religion and folk customs, and literature and folk entertainment. Each researcher set up his own research theme arid continued his study.
<Results of study>
1. Reports of the research results
Eight research papers, ranging from ancient to modern aspects of "shikinen Sengu" are published and a collection of the research materials consisting of the photographs of the 61st "Shikinen Sengu" and explanations of its historical transition is also edited. The latter is from the results of the preliminary studies.
2. A personal computer data base
A personal computer data base consisting of photographs of the Gist "Shikinen Sengu" and research papers is now being formulated and in the near future it Will be made public on the home page of the Shinto Institute of Kogakkan University.
