英文摘要 |
敦煌写本の『天地開闢以来帝王記』は僅か一巻のみの書であるが、中国晋代の仏教伝説、帝紀、神話が混在した民間俗説や、物事の起源譚など貴重な内容を収めている。旧稿では、この書に描かれている伏羲・女媧の創世神話と日本の国生み神話との類似について提起したが、両者が近似していること、または『天地開闢以来帝王紀』に影響されたであろうという指摘のみにとどまり、深く探求できず、さらなる考察を進めなかった。 しかし、その後、漢代の壁画や画像石を手掛かりに、『天地開闢以来帝王紀』と国生み神話に登場した「天神」の原型を紐解くことができ、局面が打開された。そこで本論は東アジアの神話・伝承を視野に入れつつ、『天地開闢以来帝王紀』の「天神」を中心に、国生み神話の天神の原型を考究する。 The Dunhuang Manuscript ''Tenchikaipyakuiraiteiōki'' are small-scale books with only one volume, which contain folklore mixed with Buddhist legends, imperial records, and myths during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, as well as the origin of things. The old manuscript mentioned that the creation myth of Fuxi and Nuwa recorded in this book is very similar to the myth of Kuni-umi, but did not further investigate the relationship between the two. Because there is no way to explore the relationship between the two in depth, except for the conclusion that the national mythology was influenced by the ''Tenchikaipyakuiraiteiōki'', so no investigation was carried out. However, using the murals and stone portraits of the Han Dynasty as clues recently, the author has grasped the prototype of the ''Tianjin'' that appeared in '' Tenchikaipyakuiraiteiōki '' and the myth of Kuni-umi, and finally made new progress in a situation that could not be explored in depth. Therefore, this thesis will take the perspective of East Asian mythology and inheritance, and focus on the ''Tenjin'' in ''Tenchikaipyakuiraiteiōki'' as the center to investigate the prototype of the myth of Kuni-umi ''Tenjin''. |
