Research Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate documents which Doshu and Inke (inside groups of Nara temple) left behind, and do a fundamental study about the character of these documents so that we can clarify a construction and a life of Nara temple, which played an important part in both religious and secular sides of the Medieval Period.
After we started our study in 2003, we investigated Todaiji Housyuin documents (more than 800 items) which Doshu of Todaiji Hokkedo and Chumondo left behind, and Ichijoin documents (more than 2000 items, both Housyuin documents and Ichijoin documents are owned by The Kyoto University Museum) which Nijoke left behind. Nijoke is Boukan of Ichijoin, which is a representative Inke of Kohfukuji temple. Even though Housyuin documents are rare both in the quality and in the number, they have never been investigated in earnest. We finished the investigation of original documents of all items and made a records plus a catalog. Along with that, we finished reprinting documents made in Heian, Kamakura era.
We also investigated original documents of Ichijoin documents, and finished making a catalog of all 2287 items. With the result mentioned above, we perused Housyuin documents and Ichijoin documents, and printed seven related references in scientific research report.
