| Research Abstract |
The study of language in the Kamakura period has been done only seldom and has yet to account for the relationship between spoken and written language. This research intends to create a linguistic database, using the transcripts and annotations of the era. The list of sources is as follows :
1. Jyujyushinron-Kikigaki (Owned by Koyasan University)
2. Dainichi-kyo-syo-denjyu-syo(Owned by Koyasan University)
3. Gounkan-Kikigaki(Owned by the Kozan-ji Temple)
4. Gohimitsu-Kuketsu(Owned by the Kozan-ji Temple)
5. Kanchi-ki(Owned by the Kozan-ji Temple)
6. Gokyo-syo-Ruijyu-syo(Owned by the Todai-ji Temple)
7. Gedatsumongi-chojyu-ki(Owned by The Kanazawa-bunko Library)
8. Kegonshinsyugi-monjyu-ki(Owned by The Kanazawa-bunko Library)
1 and 2 are transcripts from the Nanbokucho period in Koyasan , 4 to 8 are related to Myoe(1178-1232), abbot of The Kozan-ji Temple. In the transcription of Myoe's lectures in nos.7 and 8, the elements of spoken language are especially concentrated, which might be considered proof of the special linguistic intention of their writers, their respect for expressions of the Master's speech and their desire to note and preserve them.
