| Research Abstract |
Our study is set up on how the Buddhism of central cities was propagated to North East district in Sengoku and early Edo era. The researches are following ; (1)Setting up type and making of data-bases from Koyasan Shojoshin'in's document, (2)Setting up type from a part of Morioka feudal clan document, (3)Making of data-bases from the articles of North East district in Awazu Shinmotsuchou owned by Otani University. From these researches we concluded following three theses. (1)In Akita, Shonai and Senpoku district, Koyasan's Buddhism was first propagated to feudal Daimyo lords and its followers, and later to merchants in cities, ports and mines. The support of political power was very important for the Buddhism to spread to North East district. (2)In Morioka feudal clan, the relationship of the people and the Shingon sect temples was formed in Sengoku era, which had been maintained through Edo era. It was one of the bases of the Daimyo's control on religion of the people in his clan. (3)Mogami-shi was one of the important Daimyo in Tsugaru district, who is considered to be a believer of Sotoshu sect. But a part of its relatives believed Jodo-Shinshu sect and sometimes visited Honganji temple in Kyoto city, which was the center of the worships for its sect. From these points, we can say that in Sengoku and early Edo era the Buddhism of central cities was propagated to North East district with the support of the political and economical power of the feudal Daimyo lords, and it formed a base of Daimyos' control of the culture and religion in their feudal clans
