| 内容記述 | This article offers a philological introduction, critical edition, annotated English translation, and glossary of Chinkon setsu (鎮魂説 Treatise on Soul Pacification), an important but hitherto neglected text by Tsunoda Tadayuki (角田忠行). A Shinto priest and National Learning (kokugaku) scholar, Tsunoda was a disciple of Hirata Atsutane and Hirata Kanetane. His career extended from late Edo loyalist activism to central roles in the early Meiji shrine system, culminating in his long tenure as Grand Chief Priest of Atsuta Jingū. The sole surviving manuscript of Chinkon setsu, held in the Yano Bunko (Ōzu Municipal Library, Ehime), is written on paper marked “Aichi Chūkyōin,” suggesting composition between the mid-1870s and 1887, a period of doctrinal experimentation under the administration of the Ministry of Doctrine and the Shinto Bureau. The treatise presents a systematic doctrine of the soul rooted in classical Japanese sources, particularly the Kojiki, Nihon shoki, and medieval Shinto commentaries, while also drawing on Chinese yin-yang and fivephase cosmology and analogies to Western thought. Tsunoda distinguishes three dimensions of the human spirit—the mototsu mitama (Original Spirit), Aramitama (active soul), and Nigimitama (harmonious soul)—and correlates them with the imperial regalia and cosmological triads. The ritual of chinkon is interpreted as a method to recall wandering souls, prevent spiritual dissociation, and restore balance between active and harmonious forces, thereby ensuring bodily vitality, moral governance, and cosmic order. His analysis demonstrates the Hirata school’s wider ambition to integrate mythological exegesis, ritual practice, and the ideology of saisei itchi (祭政一致 unity of ritual and government). The present study transcribes his original handwritten manuscript, provides English translation, and adds extensive annotations to clarify technical vocabulary, doctrinal concepts, and intertextual references. It highlights the contemporaneity between Tsunoda’s soul theory and developments of soul pacifying displines such as Honda Chikaatsu’s “Spiritual Learning” (Reigaku) and its later transmission through Nagasawa Katsutate to Deguchi Onisaburō. By making Tsunoda’s work accessible, this edition sheds new light on his neglected role in shaping modern Shinto thought, clarifies the genealogy of chinkon practices, and contributes to broader discussions of ritual theory, spirit-discourses, and the transformation of Shinto within the intellectual and religious landscape of modern Japan. |
