| Research Abstract |
I mainly investigated the books about medieval-times Shintoism in the literature possessed by Shomyo-ji in Kanazawa-ku, Yokohama-shi. I searched about the Shintoism theory formed in the temple at medieval times, and its background. I decoded the contents of the important Shintoism document and published the text together with description. Then, existence of the religious courtesy in which it seems that the medieval Shintoism document was produced became clear. Research progressed also with how medieval tales and performing-arts theory are concerned with the Shintoism theory, and the background of Kojin's iconographic image.
