국문 초록

2019年5月1日から、いわゆる 令和の時代 が始まった。ことの発端 は、2016年7月13日、天皇の退位の意向が報道され、8月8日にはビデオ メッセージとして 象徴としてのお務めについての天皇陛下のおことば が 公表され、退位に向けての制度整備が動き出した結果であった。様々な過 程を経て、2019年の4月1日 平成 の次の元号として 令和 が公表され、5 月1日の新天皇即位と共に使われるようになった。新元号の出典は 万葉集 で、巻五の 梅花の歌三十二首 の序文に出る 初春令月、気淑風和 から 採っていると伝えられた。ちなみに、千三百年以上続いている日本の元号 の歴史において、出典が判明する元号はすべて漢籍が出典とされている。 従って 令和 改元は、約二百年ぶりの 譲位 による皇位継承の代始改元で ありながら、古来漢籍を出典としてきた中で、初めて国書が元号の典拠に 選ばれたことになり、世の注目が集まった。 本稿はお祭りムードで発表された新元号 令和 に関連し、様々な側面か らその意義を考察し、その過程から見えてくる日本文化や社会の一側面に ついて考えてみようと試みたものである。なお 令和 の典拠としの 万葉集 の学問的な意義、文化論的な諸問題についても考察してみたものである。

영문 초록

The 1st of May 2019 marked the day when the so-called “Era of Reiwa” started. The establishment of this year name dates back to the 13th of July 2016 when the emperor made a remark on his abdication. On the 8th of August, the message was proclaimed as “the words of the emperor who has served as the symbol of the country.” Then, the new era name “Reiwa,” which took over the previous era name “Heisei,” was proclaimed on the 1 st of April 2019, and the new era name was launched on the 1 st of May, when the new emperor ascended. The origin of the new era name is Manyoshu, and it was told that the name came from the initial sentence in “The 32 Poems Featuring Plum Blossoms,” included in the fifth volume. It is noted that in the entire history of the Japanese era names, which has lasted more than 1,300 years, the era names whose origin is detected are all from books or manuscripts in Classical Chinese. Therefore, the establishment of “Reiwa” attracted much attention from people in that the new emperor ascended through “abdication,” an event which did not occur approximately in the last 200 years and that the year name is for the first time based on the national book. In this article, I analyze various significances of the new year name “Reiwa,” which was proclaimed in a festival mood, and consider what they reveal about the Japanese culture and society. The present study also considers the issues relating to the academic significances of Manyoshu as a basis for “Reiwa” and its cultural issues.
