Abstract

In his diary Gon-ki, Fujiwara-no-Yukinari included a poem the ex-Emperor Ichijo-In had left at his deathbed with his comment that it was "dedicated to the Empress." The "Empress" had been long believed to be Chugu-Shoshi, but according to a new interpretation recently made of the text, it is more likely that it refers to the former Empress Chfigii-Teishi. Closely reading the diary, I have also found that Shoshi is at first called the "Empress" but the title comes to be used exclusively for Teishi after her death. From this viewpoint, here I will consider how Yukinari himself appreciated and interpreted the ex-Emperor's deathbed poem.
