| Research Abstract |
In this study, we analyze the reformation of three major traditional Kaguras (ie. Hirado Kagura,Iki Kagura and Gotoh Kagura) in Nagasaki Area including Gotoh islands. We argue that Kaguras performed in Shinto shrines are not considered as folk performing arts, but as the instrument to legitimate the power that reigned over the area while the Christianity was spreading rapidly in the 16th century.
The spread of Christianity made the lord Mastura of Hirado research traditional Kaguras all over Japan, and directed the lord to invent the new Hirado Kagura in order for him to govern the territory.
