Abstract

This paper attempts to examine the memorial Eigu waka session, hosted by Chokaku, the chief priest of the Tendai school of Buddhism and Nijo no Tsubone, the female servant to exemperor Gotoba, held on the same date as the day of the ex-emperor's death, February 22nd. I will confirm the fact that Chokaku, grandson: to ex-emperor Gotoba, was a waka poet, and that Nijo no Tsubone was the same person as Nishi no Onkata, daughter to Bomon (the priest) Nobukiyo who accompanied Gotoba in Oki, while examining the portrait of Gotoba employed by them. I will discuss the significance and function of the fact that the Eigu for Gotoba was the first Eigu waka session conducted in memory of the dead.(<Special Issue>Time and Space of Utakotoba(the Language of Songs))
