Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は、弥勒菩薩像と兜率天の造形に関する研究プロジェクトの一環である。すでに、科学研究費補助金の交付を受け「兜率天往生の思想とそのかたち」(平成19-23年度)、および「菩薩形弥勒と浄土・現世の交通」(平成24-27年度)という研究テーマのもと、インド以来の兜率天弥勒の信仰と造像の変化をたどるとともに、兜率天浄土と現世を行き来する弥勒菩薩の形象の生成と変容の諸相について調査研究してきた。今回の第3次プロジェクトにおいては、中国北宋期および西夏期、さらに西ウイグル王国期の上生経変の遺品について有機的関連を見出すことができた。これは有意義な新知見と考える。
