The influence that I gave to the peripheral various countries is big, and I do it, and, as for the outbreak and the development of main Buddhism each party to rise, omission cannot think about influence of Zen Buddhism in a Kamakura sect of Buddhism furthermore in this country. This year to consult in the last year let a study policy until last year progress more and put a viewpoint in the Zen Buddhism that was central existence of Buddhism and pushed forward a study about a relation with religion politics/economy/art/people life. I deepened connection of materials collection of customs and manners of a licenced red-light district field and study with each field Igot a specialty and cooperation of the allotment researcher who did it in each field, and to make a characteristic and influence of Buddhism・Zen clear. Zen of Sung Priod (宋代) does central role of Buddhism of charges then and is related to politics and closeness well badly. I put a viewpoint for the characteristicin this study and take pride that I was ableto make Sung Priod (宋代) and relation with Zen clear generally.
