Research Abstract

The aim of this research is to make clear what the Ankokuji Temples and the Rishoto pagodas were. There was one temple named Ankokuji Temple in every province and the two islands and also a different temple's pagoda called Rishoto in every province and the two islands. These islands are Iki and Tsushima. They were established by the Muromachi feudal government to pray for the peace of the world and console the revengeful sprits of the person who were killed during the war with the Kamakura shogunate government and the Emperor Godaigo (1288-1339). Most of these temples and pagodas were already built. However, their name were changed to Ankokuji Temple or Rhishoto pagoda. There were a few new temples and pagodas built by the Muromachi shogunate government. The main points of my research results are as follows : ( 1) The Ankokuji Temples and the Rishoto pagodas were established from 1338 until February 1345. 1339 was a turning point because the emperor Godaigo who was betrayed by his attendant Ashikaga Takauji (1305-58), passed away cursing him. On the 16th of August. Therefore, most of them were built in 1339. (2) One of the reasons why the Muromachi shogunate government established them was to award temples which had prayed for the victory of Ashikaga Takauji during the war with the Emperor Godaigo. (3) Most of the Ankokuji Temples belonged to the Zen sect, but not all of them. For example, Yakushiji Temple in Shimotsuke Province was affiliated to the Ritsu sect. (4) Most of the Ankokuji Temples and the Rishoto pagodas belonged to the Zen and the Ritsu sects. Therefore, we can consider that the Muromachi-shogunate tried to protect the Zen and the Ritsu sects by the policy of recognizing Ankokuji Temples and Rishoto pagodas.
