Higo started developing his miya-za theory because he felt something common to ancient myths in the rituals of miya-za. His interest in miya-za did not weaken even after he started large-scale investigations on miya-za around 1935 (Showa 10) . His definition of miya-za changed a lot through his years of research. He had to clarify its definition because he needed to make students gathered for his research understand what miya-za was, and also because the word miya-za was still unclear even for Shinto priests and local government officials who were the target of his research. The most distinctive feature of Higo's miya-za theory is that it included so-called muraza ( where all houses in a village are its members) in the category of miya-za. While this obscured the concept of miya-za, his theory had a large impact on subsequent studies, making the ideas of “miya-za equals a village” or “miya-za symbolizes a village.” Current miya-za studies are not free from those fixed ideas. Around 1935 ( Showa 10) when Higo was absorbed in miya-za studies, theocracy ( unity of religion and politics) derived from Mitogaku, with which he had been familiar from his childhood, was hailed as a political ideology to lead the time, and the miya-za theory of Higo, who was under the pressure of government officials in his mythological studies, was also in such restriction. In other words, miya-za as an organization of a village to support the theocratic nation required the participation by all houses, and for that reason, mura-za had to be included in the category of miya-za. Higo's miya-za theory was produced in the specific era of Showa 10s. Therefore, it must be read as something subject to the restraints of that time. The definition of miya-za will also need to be reexamined from such viewpoint.}, pages = {61--75}, title = {肥後和男宮座論の再検討}, volume = {161}, year = {2011}, yomi = {イチカワ, ヒデユキ} }
