Research Subject and Research Plan for the GCOE Program:
My main research subject has been the establishment of the ‘Ie’ (the traditional Japanese family) and the family prior to it. I mainly analyzed the customary practice of ‘handanka’. Handanka is a customary practice in which family members (husband, wife, children) belong to different temples. For these analyses I used religious registrations (宗門改帳). As a result, I made clear that the ‘Ie’ was established in the 18th century. Moreover, I also pointed out that wives (living in the husband’s family) belonged to their own parents’ families. At present, I am carrying out a survey to reconsider today’s society by focusing on traditional local relations. In the present GCOE program, I intend to examine the change of Japanese familism, while also focusing on the editing of Readings.
