| Research Abstract |
This research considers the social and ideological significance of the sovereign as understood within a Buddhist worldview. This research understands 'tenno' not in terms of the mechanisms of the sovereign's political power, but rather as a concept constructed through the recognition of "eras" represented through historical narratives and chronicles. By reading the contexts and writing through which these are narrated, we can decipher the social significance of 'tenno' constructed as a political and cultural ideology.
Changing values within Buddhist worldviews, which emerged from the mid-Heian period and were dismantled in the modern period, display a single process of change in historical awareness. The tenno constructed in each historical period existed as an ideology that rested on historical narratives and genealogical origins that sought to establish cultural inheritance and succession through claims of historical continuity and universality.
