Research Abstract |
I examined this research on funeral- and ancestral dedicating ceremony of the Tokugawa syogun. I paid attention to the relation with feudal clans, towns and villages in analysis. Consequently I obtained the following result. The funeral of the Tokugawa shogun was carried out under the control of the Tokugawa shogunate. The people of the whole country were obligated that is regulated life and go into mourning shile a definite period of time. On the foreign relations, the death of a Shogun was conveyed to the Korea dynasty, and the dynasty send a messenser to Tsushima Island. In each feudal clan ordered followings : (1) Suspension of all performances in music and dancing (Narimono-choji) (2) Amnesty (Gosyamen) (3) Offering to blind person (4) Production of shogun's memorial tablet (2) Amnesty constitutes an infringement of characteristic/original jurisdiction of each feudal clan. (4) Production of Shogun's memorial tablet means that each feudal clan performs memorial rites in honor of Tokugawa shogun. Each feudal lord was paying the allowance for this religious rites. The ancestral dedicating ceremony of Tokugawa family established in the Kan-ei period (1624-1644). Basically shogun visited monthly to his ancestors shrine. If he could not visit himself, he dispatched his retainer as agency. Among the ceremony deed in Edo, an ancestral dedicating ceremony is turning an usual practice after an attendance at the castle (Tojo) ceremony. Also, many feudal lord and direct vassal of Shogun were of often mobilized on this ceremony.
