Study on the history of Shinshu Yokosone-monto in the Medieval Period

此次研究的目的是为了了解横宗宗的中世纪历史，横宗宗是真兰创立的真净土宗。横宗宗是真道宗中最重要的教派之一。yokosone monto是由真兰最大的弟子之一——实书的弟子和追随者组成的。他们的活动主要集中在下野国的西北部和日立野国的西部，他们的影响从关东早期延伸到东北、近畿、中部等南部。令人惊讶的是，从镰仓时期到牟罗马尼时期，他们的历史一直没有被清楚地了解。因此，我试图收集有关横子门的史料，并对其进行研究。由于我的研究成果，我收集了大量的史料，并发表了关于横原门和其他重要分支的论文，包括日立国南部的鹿岛门和日立国北部的ooyama门。在实地考察的基础上进行调查，是研究中世纪佐多信书史的有效途径。我想用这种方法对这些课题做进一步的研究。

The Purpose of this research is to throw light on the medieval history of Yokosone-monto, one of the most important sub-sects of Jodoshinshu, lIthe True Pure Land sect, founded by Shinran. Yokosone-monto was composed of disciples and followers of Shishu, one of the largest disciples of Shinran. They were in full activity mainlyin the north-westetrn part of Shimotsuke-no-kuni and the western part of Hitachi-no-kuiii, extending their- influence froim ealier parts of Kanto to the southern part of Tohoku, Kinki, Chubu, etc. It is surprising that their history from the Kamakura Period to the Muromacni Period has not been made clear. Therefore, I tried to collect historical materials concerning Yokosone-monto and make research on them.As the results of my research, I was able to collect a lot of historical materials and publish papers concerning Yokosone-monto and other important sub-sects, Kashima-monto in the southern part of Hitaciii-no-kuni and Ooyama-monto in the northern part of Hitachi-no-kuni.It is effective to investigate on the base of the field work research in order to make much progress in studying the history of Jodoshinshu in the Medieval Period. I would like to make further research on these subjects by this method.
