| Research Abstract |
In this research I tried to explicate the characteristics of the shogunate's control system in Kinai and Kingoku region in early modern period. I studied this theme from two viewpoints, the control of the Kyoto city magistrate over the rural intendants (daikan) who governed the territories of the shogunate in Kamigata Eight Provinces (Settsu, Kawachi, Izumi, Harima, Yamato, Yamashiro, Tanba and Omi) and the system of communicating edicts. The results are as follows.
1. In Settsu, Kawachi and Izumi Provinces, each rural intendant who took the charge of each county sent edicts issued by the Kyoto city magistrate to all the villages in the county. This system was based on the control of the Kyoto city magistrate over the rural intendants.
2. The Kyoto city magistrate handled juridical matters concerning land disputes among villages in Kamigata Eight Provinces till 1722. The jurisdiction was based on the competence by which he sent the rural intendants to the lands at issue.
3. In Settsu, Kawachi and Izumi Provinces, the Osaka city magistrate also sent his edicts to all the villages in each county in these Provinces. Probably between he and the village that was handed edicts first, the merchant delegate called "yokiki" existed, who worked under the lord who governed the village.
4. When the Shogun, the Emperor or a high government official died, the prohibition of musical performance was issued in Tokugawa period. The lords who governed the territories in the region surrounding the city of Osaka usually issued the prohibition according to the prohibition issued in the city of Osaka.
