A Study on Participations of Buddhist Priests in Educational Works for Young People in Farming Villages in the Edo Period : a Case of Kurose District in Aki Province
This paper is to clarify participations of Buddhist priests in educational works for young people in farming villages in the Edo Period. In this investigation, three tombstones of masters of private elementary schools of the Edo period placed by their students were found. Two of the tombstones are Buddhist priests' one. The tombstones called "Fudekozuka" or "Shishozuka" show the historical fact that Buddhist priests taught young people how to read and write. Some farmer's children wished chances to learn even harder and went to Edo or Kyoto to study through the introduction of Buddhist priests. Buddhist priests living at temples in farming villages, who had once pursued their studies at the head temple schools, such as Zojoji Temple, Denzuin Temple, in Edo or Kyoto when they were young, played roles as regional teachers and intellectuals.
