    An Otogizdshi in Context Saru No Soshi and the Hie-Enryaku-Ji Religious Multiplex in the Late Sixteenth Century

    Japanese Journal of Religious Studies 1996 23/1-2 An Otogizdshi in Context Saru no soshi and the Hie-Enryaku-ji Religious Multiplex in the Late Sixteenth Century Lone T a k e u c h i This article presents a multiple reading of Saru no soshi; as a piece of lighthearted entertainment describing the marriage of the daughter of the monkey head~priest of Hiyoshi Shrine to a monkey from Yokawa; as an exposition of religious beliefs symbolizing the union of buddhas and Kami in the Sanno deity; and as a ritual representing a sequence of ceremonies belonging to the contemporary Yayoi sairei. It is suggested that the pro­ duction o/Saru no soshi reflects and may indeed have been directly occa­ sioned by the vigorous reconstruction efforts at Hiyoshi Shrine, led by the head priest Hafuribe Yukimaru，following the shrine’s destruction by Oda Nobunaga in 1571. Saru no 猿の早卞1 [Opusculum about monkeys] is one of several hundred fourteenth- to seventeenth-century short narratives, often illustrated, that are known as otogizdshi 御伽早子 (companion tales), Nam ehon 奈 良 絵 本 (illustrated books from Nara), Muromachi mono- 室 町 物 語 （Muromachi [period] tales), or chusei shosetsu 中世小説 (medieval short stories). The multiple designations reflect past ten- dences either to reduce the narratives to rairy tales for women and children (thus the Edo-period connotation of otogizdshi) or to focus on only their text or their pictures (e.e., chusei shosetsu) . Recent research, however, generally aerees that most otogizdshi were situated at the interface of entertainment and religious ritual, that they were 1 Unless specified otherwise, references to Saru no soshi are to the annotated edition by Sawai Taizo (1987) in the SNKBT edition.
