| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to research the 'ganmon' written by SUGAWARA no Tamenaga and others. SUGAWARA no Tamenaga, a Confucian scholar in the early Kamakura period, left many works of ganmon. We focused on the Tamenaga's works included in "Gunsho ruiju" and "Honcho bunsyu", and examined Tamenaga's style of textual expression and the historical facts in the ganmon.
TANAKA Sohsei, the depty Betto of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine, asked Tamenaga to write the ganmon for the memorial service of Sohsei's lost son Shusei. That ganmon describes Sohsei's grief for his son's death and involves previously unknown facts about the Buddhist image and altar.
This study revealed that the pieces of excellent classical calligraphy which had been in connection with SHOKADO Shojo were 'Kana ganmon', and the author was FUJIWARA no Teika.

『続群書類従』に「願文集」という書名で所収されていた史料が、菅原為長による『菅芥集』という作品であったことがわかった。具体的に各願文を読解すると、鎌倉初期に活躍した人物たちのこれまで知られてこなかった事跡が明らかとなった。また、石清水八幡宮権別当田中宗清が為長を含む文人たちに依頼した願文群の存在を指摘し、『続群書類従』で作者不詳とされていた仮名願文が藤原定家のものであることを発見した。
