Research Abstract |
1. The purpose of this research is about the Industry of 'Kawanabe Butsudan'(the buddhist-altar manufactured in Kawanabe). Kawanabe where Shinshu buddhism is much prosperous is located in Kagoshima pref. and it had two singular religious and historical events. One was the severe prohibition of 'IKKo Sect' from 1597 to 1876, and the other was 'Haibutsu Kishaku'(the perfect destruction of Buddhist image and the like by the law(1868). After the removal of prohibition, all the villages of Kawanabe belonged to Jodoshinshu Buddhism on the basis of 'Kakure Nenbutsu'. Kakure Nenbutsu's freat influence upon 'gama' (a kind of small type buddhist-altar) can easily by understood. 2. Considering that Kawanabe area had no such favorable conditions for the buddhist-altar industry as being able to get easily correlated techniques and materials and being located near the big consuming cities, it may be concluded that the frowth of Kawanabe Buddhist-Altar Industry is owing to it's being the prosperrous place of Jodoshinshu Buddhism. 3. On the autumn of 1985, this investigation was carried out covering 27 items on the following matters; the employees themselves and their loyalty to their works and their companies.
